About the role

You will join a growing Recruiting team in San Francisco and take ownership of full-cycle hiring across various GTM, G&A, and Operations roles— from sourcing and outreach to offer. Recruiting is one of the primary drivers of our growth, and maintaining a high hiring bar is central to how we operate. You will partner directly with hiring managers to shape hiring strategy, build pipeline ahead of demand, and close top talent in a competitive market.

Responsibilities

  • Own full-cycle recruiting across GTM, G&A, and Operations functions— from intake and sourcing through offer and close
  • Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, leveling, interview plans, and sourcing strategies; lead debriefs and push back on specs that will not get results
  • Build and maintain pipelines through proactive outbound outreach, competitive research, and community-based sourcing— ahead of demand, not in response to it
  • Craft personalized, high-conversion outreach that reflects the company's voice and mission
  • Manage offers end-to-end, understanding what motivates each candidate and maintaining strong acceptance rates in competitive markets
  • Coordinate closely with Sourcers and RCs to keep handoffs clean and candidates moving; give clear briefs and keep the team unblocked
  • Track pipeline health, hiring metrics, and process improvements; build lightweight infrastructure like scorecards and debrief guides as you go
  • Contribute to recruiting operations, tooling, and best practices as the team scales

Requirements

  • 4–8 years of full-cycle recruiting experience at a startup or high-growth tech company, preferably in AI, dev tools, or B2B SaaS environments
  • Hands-on experience owning GTM or G&A functions across multiple verticals; you understand how these teams operate and what good looks like in each
  • Strong sourcing and candidate engagement skills, with a creative approach to finding talent outside of the usual channels
  • A track record of closing top talent in competitive markets; you understand what motivates candidates beyond comp and manage objections before they become drop-offs
  • Experience as a genuine strategic partner to hiring managers: advising on scope, leveling, interview design, and offer strategy
  • Clear, confident communication with candidates and hiring managers, with the ability to grasp technical concepts, and pitch the company in a compelling way
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with high and evolving hiring standards
  • Experience with ATS tools such as Ashby, and sourcing platforms like Juicebox
  • A collaborative mindset and genuine interest in AI and building great teams

Qualifications

  • Nice to Have: Agency recruiting experience or a blended background (agency + in-house)
  • Experience recruiting for additional functions such as Product, G&A, or technical roles
  • Experience at an early-stage startup where you contributed to building recruiting process alongside hiring
