What You'll Do
- Own pipelines end-to-end, with urgency. Source, assess, and close world-class technical talent across engineering, product, and data roles. No candidate sits in limbo. No hiring manager is in the dark. You move fast because you've built the systems that let you move fast.
- Be a strategic partner, not an order taker. You'll bring market intelligence to every intake. When a job description is off, comp is misaligned, or an interview loop is leaking good candidates — you say so, with data.
- Tell a story that makes exceptional people pay attention. Valon's thesis is counterintuitive: we built the whole stack, not a wedge product, because regulated finance demands it. You need to understand that deeply enough to make world class engineers stop scrolling.
- Obsess over candidate experience. Every touchpoint reflects who we are. You'll design interactions that are precise, human, and high-trust — from first outreach to offer close to day-one onboarding.
- Use AI like it's part of your team. You're already experimenting with AI for sourcing, outreach personalization, pipeline analysis, candidate research, and workflow automation. You don't wait for someone to hand you a tool — you find it, test it, and share what works.
- Build recruiting as a product. Draft job descriptions, refine interview loops, create sourcing playbooks, build dashboards. Everything you do should be repeatable, measurable, and compounding.
What You Bring
- Proven track record closing technical roles (engineering, product, data) in high-growth or complex environments
- A portfolio of AI experimentation — you can talk concretely about tools you've tried, workflows you've automated, and what worked vs. didn't
- High agency: you take ownership, drive outcomes, and fix what's broken without being asked
- The ability to translate complex, technical, or regulated businesses into narratives that attract top talent
- Sharp pattern recognition for what "great" looks like across technical disciplines
- Resilience through rejection, slow closes, and ambiguity — you keep momentum when pipelines stall
- Strong data instincts: you track metrics, spot trends, and let numbers inform your decisions
- Communication skills that build trust with candidates and hiring managers alike
