About the Role

Join the founding team of an early-stage AI recruiting and talent-matching startup as a hands-on operator. You will take on high-impact work across strategy, operations, recruiting, growth, and product, helping improve the experience for candidates and hiring teams.

What You'll Do

  • Lead founder-priority projects, from exploring new market opportunities through execution.

  • Improve candidate funnel conversion, matching quality, and overall experience.

  • Build operational processes and systems that can scale with the business.

  • Support go-to-market work, including messaging, experiments, and partnerships.

  • Turn feedback from candidates and hiring teams into actionable product priorities.

  • Move independently between operational, strategic, recruiting, and special projects as priorities evolve.

What We're Looking For

  • Approximately 1 to 3 years of relevant professional experience, with growing responsibility in an early-career operating role.

  • Experience in founder support, strategy, recruiting, growth, special projects, or startup operations.

  • Previous Founder Associate, Chief of Staff, or comparable startup operator experience.

  • Ability to work independently across varied, ambiguous responsibilities and drive projects through to outcomes.

  • Interest in early-stage startups and AI-enabled recruiting or talent matching.

Compensation & Benefits

Base salary is $90,000 to $120,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.

Location
