About the Role
We're looking for a Talent Partner who combines strong recruiting craft with ownership, sound judgment, and genuine business partnership.
You'll own searches end to end, partner closely with hiring managers and senior leaders, and use data and evidence to help teams make thoughtful hiring decisions. This is a hands-on recruiting role for someone who knows how to move a search forward independently while also recognizing when a change in strategy, calibration, or process is needed.
You'll have the opportunity to support searches across functions and seniority levels, including select senior and VP-level roles. You'll also help us continue evolving how we hire - from structured interviewing and candidate experience to reporting, tooling, and the thoughtful use of AI.
This role reports to our Director of Team Enablement, is fully remote within the United States, and may include travel up to two times per year.
What You'll Do
- Own full-cycle recruiting across your slate of roles, from intake and sourcing through assessment, offer, and close.
- Partner with hiring managers and senior leaders to define what great looks like, build effective search strategies, calibrate along the way, and make well-informed hiring decisions.
- Build strong, proactive candidate pipelines using a mix of sourcing strategies, networks, market knowledge, and recruiting tools.
- Maintain structured scorecards, interview feedback, and decision documentation that support consistent, evidence-based hiring.
- Use recruiting data and weekly reporting to communicate funnel health, progress, risks, and recommended actions.
- Deliver a candidate experience that is timely, clear, respectful, and consistent from first conversation through final decision.
- Use AI and recruiting technology thoughtfully to improve sourcing, screening, administration, and recruiter and interviewer effectiveness while applying human judgment where it matters most.
- Proactively identify opportunities to improve how we hire, including calibration, interview design, sourcing strategy, funnel health, documentation, and recruiting workflows.
- Make sound day-to-day decisions independently and surface risks, trade-offs, or blockers early when broader alignment is needed.
What You'll Need
- 6+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience with demonstrated ownership of searches from kickoff through close.
- Experience partnering directly with hiring managers and senior stakeholders to define hiring needs, calibrate talent profiles, and move searches forward.
- Strong sourcing skills and the ability to build pipelines beyond inbound applicants, particularly for competitive or specialized roles.
- A data-informed approach to recruiting, with experience using funnel metrics and market insights to adjust strategy and advise hiring teams.
- Strong judgment and communication skills, including the ability to challenge assumptions, surface risks, and recommend a different approach when the evidence calls for it.
- Demonstrated experience improving a recruiting process, program, or system - for example, structured interviews, scorecards, sourcing approaches, candidate experience, reporting, or recruiting operations.
- Business acumen and the ability to connect recruiting decisions to broader considerations such as urgency, talent availability, cost, risk, and business priorities.
- Experience using AI, automation, or modern recruiting technology to improve recruiting effectiveness, paired with thoughtful judgment about where human evaluation should remain central.
- A track record of creating a clear, responsive, and respectful experience for both candidates and hiring teams.
- High ownership and self-direction, with the ability to manage competing searches, priorities, and stakeholders without needing constant oversight.
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience recruiting across multiple countries or regions, particularly in partnership with globally distributed teams.
- Experience recruiting across both technical functions, such as Engineering and Data, and go-to-market functions.
- SHRM-SCP, HRCI SPHR, or equivalent.
Company Mission
Our mission is to empower people to be creative and connect deeply with the ones they love. Unlike many growth companies, we have invested deeply in culture. Organizational health is central to our long-term strategy - we believe that when we care for our people, they build great products, our customers feel the difference, and our business grows as a result.
We want people to join us who live our values:
- Courageous Care - empathy with backbone; caring enough to be clear
- Craftsmanship - pride in what we build and who it’s for; ownership end-to-end
- Pioneer Spirit - moving fast and thinking ahead; treating constraints as creative fuel
