You will run search end to end across two tracks, engineering, product, and data on one side, and senior and executive leadership roles on the other. Both demand the same things: real credibility with sophisticated hiring managers, and the judgment to know when a pipeline is genuinely strong versus merely full.
This role opens as an individual contributor carrying a full requisition load. As the function scales, it is the seat we expect to build a team around.
What You’ll Do:
- Full-cycle search: Own technical and senior-level requisitions from intake through signed offer. You run the process, you set the pace, and you are accountable for the outcome.
- Pipeline and sourcing: Build durable talent pipelines that reduce our dependence on external agencies. Sourced candidates, not just applicants.
- Hiring manager partnership: Lead sharp intake conversations, build structured scorecards, and design interview loops that actually predict performance. Push back when a role is not clearly defined.
- AI-enabled recruiting operations: Use AI as a daily instrument, not an experiment. Build and improve the automation layer that makes screening, scheduling, and pipeline reporting faster, and bring ideas for what we should build next.
- Metrics and reporting: Own the numbers on your reqs. Time to fill, source of hire, pass-through rates, and offer accept, reported clearly enough to drive decisions.
What We’re Looking For:
- Full-cycle technical recruiting experience: You have filled engineering, product, and data roles and can hold your own in a technical conversation with a CTO or engineering leader.
- Senior and executive search experience: You have run director-level and above searches with the polish and discretion those processes demand.
- Range: You can move between a backend engineer requisition and a senior finance leader search in the same week without dropping either.
- Greenhouse fluency: Hands-on, configuration-level familiarity, not just candidate entry.
- Active AI practitioner: You use tools like Claude and Gemini in your real workflow and can walk us through specific examples of how they changed your output.
