Role Scope
Own hiring strategy, execution, and tracking for Fluidstack's Software org, building the annual delivery plan while staying hands-on closing critical searches yourself.
Lead and scale a talent acquisition function across manufacturing, supply chain, and industrial operations business units.
Partner directly with senior hiring managers to forecast headcount, map talent needs, and align hiring strategy to business objectives.
Build, mentor, and manage a team of TA Partners, Sourcers, and Coordinators with clear direction and performance accountability.
Design hiring processes that balance speed with candidate quality, driving recruitment for hard-to-fill skilled trades, procurement, and supply chain roles to high offer-acceptance rates, and own the hiring metrics and recruiting infrastructure (ATS workflows, interview rubrics, calibration) that keep the funnel healthy.
What We're Looking For
The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
You've built and run hiring for manufacturing, supply chain, or industrial operations orgs in a hyper-growth environment, ramping headcount without dropping the bar.
You lead a team and set strategy but stay in the work. You take the hard searches, model great execution, and don't delegate your way out of accountability.
You know the difference between competent and exceptional and won't compromise on it, for your team's hires or your own. Every hire raises the average.
You build for the year but can lead quick pivots. You anticipate hiring needs and map talent landscapes so your team never starts a critical role from zero.
You measure what matters (pipeline conversion, source quality, time-to-hire) and use it to manage performance and make decisions.
You give clear, honest feedback and build trust by being straight with your team, not easy on them.
Bonus: Recruiting in manufacturing, industrial operations, or supply chain markets. Scaling a TA function through rapid headcount growth. Immigration and global mobility coordination. Employer brand building.
