About the role
- This is the highest leverage role at Poetic.
- If Poetic succeeds at the level we believe it will, a significant part of that outcome will trace back to the recruiting machine you built.
- This role is deeply hands-on: you will be sourcing, interviewing candidates, and running processes while simultaneously designing systems that scale.
Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end recruiting across all roles, from sourcing through close
- Create a best-in-class candidate experience - every person who interacts with Poetic should feel the difference
- Manage and optimize sourcing channels: network referrals, external agencies, and outbound campaigns
- Maintain and report on recruiting funnel metrics with rigor
- A maniacal operations focus - you think in systems, have a high tempo, and will optimize everything you touch
- Ambition to build the best talent organization in the world and a genuine love for finding the top 0.01% of people
Requirements
- We must be the most effective recruiting system in the world.
- Experience recruiting for technical and customer-facing roles at high-growth startups
- The ability to be both strategic and in the weeds - this is not a high-level role
Nice to have
- Background recruiting for forward-deployed, solutions, or professional services roles
- Familiarity with recruiting tools and systems (ATS, sourcing platforms, automation)
- Series A at a $500mm valuation from Founders Fund, Kleiner Perkins, OpenAI, and other investors.
- We're a tight-knit team that works hard because we believe that the nature of how computers work for people will finally change
Skills
- Processes that once took hours can now be completed in a fraction of the time at superhuman quality.
Benefits
- You'll build the talent organization and processes from scratch, own the vision for what world-class recruiting looks like, and execute the day-to-day operations behind it.
