About the role

  • This isn't a traditional corporate recruiting role.
  • Conduct initial screens for Robot Operator and other high-volume operations candidates, evaluating for reliability, communication, attention to detail, availability, motivation, and fit for the work.
  • Hold a clear, consistent bar for who advances to a work trial, aiming for strong screen-to-trial conversion, high trial attendance, and high pass rates among the candidates you advance.

Responsibilities

  • Build the Candidate Funnel: Generate a consistent pipeline of qualified candidates for Robot Operator and related operations roles - enough applicants to meet hiring plans and predictable weekly screen volume.
  • Develop and manage channels including job boards, referrals, local partnerships, recruiting events, community organizations, and schools, and experiment with new acquisition channels as hiring demand shifts.
  • Own Candidate Screening: Conduct initial screens for Robot Operator and other high-volume operations candidates, evaluating for reliability, communication, attention to detail, availability, motivation, and fit for the work.
  • Own Recruiting Throughput: Keep enough candidates at each stage of the funnel to hit weekly hiring targets, and maintain accurate visibility into expected candidate volume, upcoming trials, conversions, and starts.
  • Deliver a Great Candidate Experience: Communicate clearly and promptly with candidates about the job, hiring process, schedule, compensation, and expectations, so that offer-to-start conversion stays strong and the hiring experience reflects well on Pi even at high volume.
  • Build Recruiting Partnerships: Build relationships with organizations that can become durable sources of candidates.
  • Improve the Hiring System: Build simple, repeatable processes for high-volume recruiting.
  • Hands-on experience building local candidate pipelines through community organizations, schools, events, referrals, and partnerships - ideally in the San Francisco Bay Area

  • Experience recruiting hourly or high-volume roles (e.g., operations, warehouse, retail, hospitality, manufacturing, or field roles) where you owned sourcing and screening end to end
  • A track record of personally screening a high volume of candidates each week while holding a consistent bar
  • Comfort tracking funnel metrics and adjusting sourcing based on what the data says about conversion and downstream quality
  • Clear, warm, and timely communication with candidates from a wide range of backgrounds
  • Strong organization and follow-through in a fast-moving environment where hiring demand changes quickly
  • Familiarity with Ashby or a similar ATS, and with automating scheduling and candidate communications
  • Experience at an early-stage startup or another environment where you built recruiting processes from scratch
  • Existing relationships with Bay Area workforce development organizations, community colleges, or trade programs

Compensation

  • Deliver a Great Candidate Experience: Communicate clearly and promptly with candidates about the job, hiring process, schedule, compensation, and expectations, so that offer-to-start conversion stays strong and the hiring experience refle

Company info

  • Our operations teams keep Pi's robots running and learning every day.
  • Robot Operators, copilots, shift leads, technicians, and props staff work on-site in San Francisco to collect the data our models are trained on, and we're growing these teams quickly.
  • This role sits on the People team and partners directly with operations leadership to build and run the hiring engine behind that growth, starting with high-volume Robot Operator hiring.
