About the Role

We're seeking a Recruiting Manager to lead full cycle recruiting functions and build the foundations for a scalable talent acquisition strategy. You will recruit for engineering, sales, marketing, and other critical roles as we scale. As the first recruiting hire, you will play a pivotal role in shaping how we attract talent and grow.

What You'll Do

  • Partner with Founders: Collaborate closely with founders to define role scopes, build scorecards, and align on hiring priorities and timelines.
  • Hire Across Functions: Lead and manage sourcing and recruiting efforts for both technical and business roles, focusing on identifying and engaging top-tier talent aligned with Stack AI’s mission.
  • Run Structured Interviews: Design and manage efficient, role-specific interview processes that incorporate technical screens, case studies, and culture assessments.
  • Manage Recruiting Tools & Data: Build, support, and refine recruiting processes and tools, developing and maintaining best practices. Report on key recruiting metrics and provide data-driven and actionable insights

About You

  • Experience: 5+ years of recruiting experience, ideally within high-growth startups.
  • Builder Mindset: Excited to building recruiting playbooks, tools, and processes from scratch and iterate rapidly
  • Cross-Functional Fluency: Comfortable with recruiting for deeply technical roles (e.g. AI/ML engineers) as well as go-to-market teams (e.g. sales, marketing).
  • Communication Skills: Connect with candidates and internal stakeholders to set the standard for an exceptional candidate experience
  • Organized and Detail-Oriented: Capable of juggling multiple roles and timelines while maintaining a smooth and consistent candidate experience.
  • Mission-Driven: Passionate about building world-class teams that drive innovation.
