Responsibilities

  • We build products that positively impact millions of people's lives

  • Clear, applied point of view on AI in recruiting, with hands-on experience implementing tools or workflows (e.g., sourcing automation, interview intelligence, screening augmentation) and assessing their real impact

  • Establish structured interviewing frameworks and competency models that improve the quality and consistency of hiring decisions
