Full Job Description
What success looks like

In this role, you will build the teams that build Meter's Data Center product line across hardware, firmware, software, and QA engineering. You will work closely with Meter's founders, engineering leadership, and existing recruiting team (leveraging successful processes that they've defined).

Your goal is to continuously raise the bar with each hire you make. Within six months, you'll have built a recruiting engine that consistently sources and closes exceptional hires who thrive at Meter. By the end of your first year, your success will be measured by the following:
  • Hiring quality: Your hires' 6-month performance ratings consistently exceed or greatly exceed hiring manager expectations. You achieve 90%+ new hire retention through year one with hiring managers consistently sharing they would enthusiastically rehire these colleagues.
  • Hiring velocity: You'll reduce time-to-hire by 20% from the current baseline, maintaining an 60;80% offer acceptance rate.
What your day-to-day will look like

You'll own everything from mapping the market, to attracting and evaluating talent, to closing candidates. You'll partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, design search-related collateral, and implement rigorous, reliable hiring practices. You'll build and nurture strong relationships with candidates who are known for being the best at their craft, serving as Meter's expert on who is the right candidate to pursue for any given search.

Great work happens through sheer perseverance and doing the basics really well (e.g., following up one more time to a prospect you've been pursuing, finding a way to get an intro, shipping something personal to a candidate, etc.).

Who you are
  • You have a track record of identifying and closing top-tier engineering talent, with expertise in evaluating technical depth across hardware, software, and firmware disciplines.
  • You're known for consistently building lean, high performing engineering teams at ambitious, fast-growing technology companies.
  • You bring clarity and confidence to the hiring process, enabling your hiring partners to make decisions with a high degree of conviction.
  • You've built recruiting processes that scale with fast growing, early stage functions.
  • You DON'T need experience recruiting for hardware and firmware roles.


Compensation

  • The estimated pay range for this role is $130,000 - $190,000.
  • Additionally, this role is eligible to participate in Meter's equity plan.
