About the role

About the Role

Join the founding team of an early-stage AI-powered recruiting and talent-matching startup. This hands-on operator role spans product, growth, operations, and partnerships, helping the team improve candidate experiences and build scalable ways to connect talent with startups.

What You'll Do

* Lead high-priority projects from planning through execution, including new market initiatives and strategic work.

* Improve candidate experience, funnel conversion, candidate quality, and hiring outcomes.

* Build operational processes and systems that support rapid growth.

* Support go-to-market efforts by refining messaging, running experiments, and developing partnerships.

* Turn feedback from candidates and companies into actionable product priorities.

* Switch independently across operations, strategy, recruiting, and special projects as priorities evolve.

What We're Looking For

* Approximately 1 to 3 years of relevant professional experience.

* Experience as a Founder Associate, Chief of Staff, or comparable startup operator.

* Hands-on operations experience beyond a primarily technical or product-management background.

* Ability to work independently across operational, strategic, recruiting, and project work in a fast-moving startup environment.
