You'll source exceptional people, help run candidate onsites, experiment with new recruiting tools, improve how we work, and jump into whatever will help us hire faster.
You'll also build an incredible network along the way, meeting talented operators, engineers, salespeople, executives, and founders across the AI ecosystem.
What you'll do
Find and engage great candidates across technical and non-technical roles
Research companies, industries, and talent markets
Help run candidate interviews and onsite experiences

Why this role
This is a chance to get a front-row seat to building a high-growth AI company.
You'll learn how different parts of a startup operate, work directly with people across the business, develop strong judgment around talent, and build a network that would normally take years to develop.
If you're early in your career, ambitious, curious, and not quite sure which part of the startup world you want to build your career in yet, this is a pretty great place to start.
