    Key Responsibilities

Partner with founders and hiring managers on role definition, assessment, and closing and set the standard for executive hiring across the company.
    • Hiring Strategy & Bar Setting: Own end‑to‑end hiring outcomes and set a consistently high bar across all roles, partnering closely with leaders to ensure rigorous assessment and strong hiring decisions.
    • Leadership & Team Building: Build, lead, and mentor a high‑performing Talent Acquisition team. Create clarity around roles, expectations, and performance while fostering a culture of ownership and excellence.

    • Candidate Experience & Employer Brand: Ensure a high‑touch, thoughtful candidate experience. Shape and communicate a compelling employer story in partnership with leadership and brand partners.
    • Stakeholder Partnership: Build deep, trusted relationships with founders and hiring managers, serving as a trusted advisor throughout the hiring process.

    What We Require

    • Executive Search Experience: 10+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition and/or Executive Search, with proven experience leading executive search end‑to‑end either from a top search firm or in‑house and a track record of closing senior leaders in competitive markets.

    • Technical Recruiting Expertise: Hands‑on experience hiring technical talent, with the ability to partner credibly with technical leaders.

    • Exceptional Communication & Judgment: Strong executive presence, stakeholder management skills, and sound judgment in high‑stakes hiring decisions.
    • Thrive in Ambiguity: Comfort operating with incomplete information, prioritizing ruthlessly, and creating structure where none exists.
