Recruiter (12-Month Contract)

About the role

We are seeking a Recruiter to own a broad range of roles across US and Canada. This is a full-cycle seat with real ownership, not a coordination role. You will manage searches end-to-end across a wide mix of corporate and operational functions, partner directly with hiring managers as their talent advisor, and handle offer negotiations. You will also play a key role in building and standardizing our recruiting processes as we scale. If you are looking for a defined lane and a predictable req load, this is not the position for you. If you seek breadth, velocity, and direct collaboration with key decision-makers, this role offers significant impact.

Please note: This is a full-time, 12-month contract position.

What you'll do

  • Own full-cycle recruiting across a broad range of corporate and operational roles spanning the US and Canada
  • Partner directly with hiring managers as a trusted talent advisor, shaping the bar, the interview loop, and the market strategy for each search
  • Run intake properly and get the bar in writing, so every candidate is screened against a documented standard rather than an inferred one
  • Source and build pipeline across a varied req load, including passive outreach to candidates who are not looking
  • Screen with structure, using consistent competency dimensions so evaluation is evidence-based and candidates are compared on substance rather than polish
  • Turn screens around fast, with clear written recommendations that give hiring managers a real signal, including what would make a candidate fail the loop
  • Lead compensation conversations and offer negotiations end to end, anchoring to market while protecting internal pay parity
  • Build and run AI-driven workflows across sourcing, screening, evaluation, and your own day-to-day operations, not just use the tools you are handed
  • Bring market intelligence back to hiring managers and leadership, including the honest read when a market is thin or a bar is unrealistic
  • Help design and standardize recruiting process as the team scales, from intake through offer and onboarding

What you'll need

  • Full-cycle recruiting experience with a track record of running searches independently, start to finish
  • Experience recruiting across multiple functions and markets at once, and comfort holding several different bars in your head
  • Strong compensation management skills: the ability to navigate salary expectations, align candidates with internal ranges, and facilitate fair, successful offer closings.
  • A structured approach to evaluation, and the instinct to test how someone did something rather than accepting the headline on their resume
  • Fluency with AI as part of how you actually work, with specific examples of workflows you have built or changed
  • Strong written communication, especially candidate-facing, where you can be warm, direct, and specific in the same message
  • The judgment to push back on a hiring manager when the bar is slipping, and the relationship skills to do it without becoming the bottleneck
  • Comfort with ambiguity and a bias toward fixing things rather than flagging them

Bonus points

  • Experience recruiting across both the US and Canada, including familiarity with the differences in offer mechanics between the two
  • Background in a high-growth or public technology company operating at startup pace
  • Versatile recruiting experience across a broad range of corporate and business functions
  • Curiosity to try new things, question the status quo, and make actionable recommendations.
  • You have built a recruiting process or SOP from scratch, not just followed one
  • Experience with equity-based compensation conversations


Location
This role is based in one of our offices, in-person four days per week. We're looking for candidates who are enthusiastic about an in-office culture; people who want to build alongside their teammates, not from a distance.
