Remote Recruiter / Talent Sourcer

We're hiring a Recruiter / Talent Sourcer to help us find and attract the right people as we scale the team ahead of public launch.

Summary

• Flexible Title: Can tailor to reflect your skills & experience.
• Flexible Time: Can do full-time, part-time, side-gig (off-hours), or fractional (contract).
• Flexible Commitment: Can do short-term, long-term, or intermittent.

Why so flexible? We're a FUNDED startup racing toward launch. Feel free to jump in, help us ship, then bounce >> or stick around. A successful launch translates into lots of permanent jobs for those that want them. We're also interested in long-term "side gig" relationships, if that's what you're into—in our experience, a few expert hours often beat full-time learning-curve hours.

About Us

We're a credible, funded, remote-first startup backed by a growing team. We're pre-launch and moving fast.

About The Role

We're growing and we need someone who knows how to find people. Your job is to source candidates, reach out, screen for fit, and keep the pipeline full so hiring managers can focus on final interviews and decisions. You'll work across multiple roles — engineering, marketing, operations, and more — so versatility matters.

This is ideal for someone who loves the hunt: finding great people, getting them excited about an opportunity, and moving them through the process. If you've recruited for startups before, you know how fast things move and how important every hire is.

Compensation

Up to $75,000 max total annual compensation in Tier 1 cities; cash and equity components to be negotiated. Given the flexible commitment model, comp will be structured accordingly — fractional or hourly arrangements welcome.

What You'll Do in Your First 7 Days

• You've reviewed our open roles and understand what we're looking for in each
• You've gotten access to our recruiting tools and applicant tracking system
• You've started sourcing candidates and building initial pipelines
• You've attended your first hiring sync and understand team priorities
• The team knows who you are, why you're here, and how you'll work together

What You'll Do Ongoing

• Source candidates — find qualified people through LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, communities, and creative channels
• Outreach and engage — write compelling messages that get responses from passive candidates
• Screen and qualify — conduct initial phone screens to assess fit before passing candidates to hiring managers
• Manage the pipeline — keep the ATS updated, follow up with candidates, and make sure no one falls through the cracks
• Improve the process — identify what's working and what isn't, and help us build a recruiting engine that scales

What We're Looking For

Must-haves:

• 1+ years in recruiting, talent sourcing, or talent acquisition (agency or in-house)
• Strong sourcing skills — you know how to find people beyond just posting a job ad
• Excellent written communication — your outreach messages get responses
• Organized — you can manage multiple roles and dozens of candidates simultaneously
• Comfortable working independently and moving fast

Nice-to-have:

• Experience recruiting for startups or early-stage companies
• Familiarity with ATS tools (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, or similar)
• LinkedIn Recruiter experience
• Comfortable in fast-moving, ambiguous environments

What You're NOT

• Not an HR generalist — this is recruiting, not benefits administration or employee relations
• Not a hiring manager — you source and screen; final decisions are made by the team leads
• Not a one-role specialist — we need someone who can recruit across functions, not just one discipline
