Full Job Description
What You'll Do

With guidance, you'll run engineering and GTM requisitions from day one. You'll run your own reqs within three months. That means:
  • Developing and executing targeted sourcing strategies across LinkedIn, referrals, events, and more
  • Screening inbound applicants and conducting initial screens to assess fit and interest
  • Coordinating and scheduling your own candidates while keeping your ATS data clean
  • Partnering with hiring managers to define role requirements, calibrate profiles, and align on priorities and timelines
  • Learning to close candidates in a competitive market, with the expectation that you're closing independently within six months


About You

This job is for:

Agency Recruiters ready to trade volume for more strategic, consultative hiring. You want to go deep on a company you believe in.

Recruiting Coordinators who want to accelerate their career. You know the mechanics, now own the outcomes.

Recruiters and sourcers who want to do the most important work of their career. At a company this early, talent strategy is company strategy

Your strengths:
  • Storytelling: you can craft a compelling message with written or spoken word. You use AI as an effective tool, and still sound human
  • Good judgmenton candidate quality: you don't just fill pipelines, you fill them with the right people (I can teach you this, but it has to be something you're interested in)
  • Organized and self-sufficient: you'll handle your own scheduling and coordination without hand-holding
  • Feedback: this will be a supportive but intense environment. You'll need to be able to receive direct feedback and give it if needed
  • Comfort in ambiguity: and you're energized by a fast-moving startup environment


Nice to Have
  • Experience sourcing or closing candidates for technical and go-to-market positions
  • Familiarity with ATS platforms like Ashby, Greenhouse, or Lever (we use Asbhy)
  • Genuine interest in physical AI, robotics, rocketships or any kind of hardware development
