About The Role
Recruiting at Valon isn’t support. It’s the engine. Every hire we make compounds our ability to build the AI-native operating system that will run trillion-dollar regulated industries. That means the people who identify, engage, and coordinate exceptional talent aren’t peripheral to the mission — they help create the conditions for the mission to scale.
- You’ll help build and maintain high-quality early-career and experienced-candidate pipelines, support university recruiting programs, coordinate candidate processes with speed and care, and ensure every touchpoint reflects the rigor and ambition of Valon.
- This is a contract role for someone who is operationally excellent, highly organized, and energized by the details that make recruiting systems work: clean pipelines, thoughtful outreach, tight follow-up, well-run events, and a candidate experience that feels precise, human, and high-trust.
- You’ll partner closely with recruiters, hiring managers, and cross-functional teams to help Valon identify and engage top talent through sourcing campaigns, career fairs, university events, candidate coordination, and recruiting operations.
What You’ll Do
- Build and maintain high-quality candidate pipelines
- Source technical talent across engineering, product, data, and early-career roles
- Support university recruiting programs
- Coordinate career fairs and recruiting events
- Deliver an exceptional candidate experience
- Partner closely with recruiters and hiring teams
- Use tools and AI to improve recruiting execution
- Keep recruiting systems clean and actionable
What You Bring
- Experience in sourcing, recruiting coordination, university recruiting, talent operations, or a related recruiting support role
- Strong interest in technical recruiting, early-career talent, and high-growth hiring environments
- Excellent organization and attention to detail across scheduling, candidate communication, event logistics, and pipeline management
- Ability to manage multiple priorities at once without dropping details
- Strong written communication skills, especially for candidate outreach and follow-up
- Comfort working with recruiters, hiring managers, candidates, university partners, and cross-functional stakeholders
- A high-agency mindset: you notice what needs to be done, take ownership, and follow through without needing every step defined
- Familiarity with recruiting tools, applicant tracking systems, sourcing platforms, spreadsheets, and AI tools
- Candidate-first instincts and a belief that speed, clarity, and care matter at every stage of the process
- Curiosity, resilience, and comfort operating in ambiguity as we continue to build and improve our recruiting processes
Why Valon?
- Impact. Every hire you close directly accelerates the AI-native OS that will transform how regulated finance operates. This isn't hypothetical — our platform already manages millions of homeowner accounts.
- Innovation. AI isn't a feature at Valon. It's the architecture. You'll recruit for a company where the product thesis and the internal operating model are both AI-native.
- Team. A small, high-talent-density recruiting squad where your ideas get pressure-tested and shipped — not buried in a backlog.
- Growth. We're scaling beyond mortgage servicing into the broader regulated finance ecosystem. The recruiting function you help build now will power that expansion.
