About the role
- Own full-cycle technical recruiting — from kickoff through close — across engineering, product, and adjacent technical functions
- Build and execute sourcing strategies that consistently surface high-caliber, often passive candidates
- Partner closely with hiring managers to define success profiles, calibrate the bar, and run structured, high-signal interview processes
- Design and iterate on the recruiting infrastructure: scorecards, interview loops, funnel metrics, and candidate experience
- Represent BackOps authentically to candidates — tell the story, build trust, and close with conviction
- Contribute to the broader recruiting strategy and headcount planning in partnership with the Head of People & Talent
- Lay the groundwork for a scalable hiring function as the team grows
- 4–7 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with meaningful time spent at early-stage or high-growth startups
- Proven track record hiring technical talent — engineers, infrastructure, product — with a high and well-calibrated bar
- A relentless sourcer who knows how to hunt, not just manage inbound
- Experience building recruiting processes and tooling from the ground up, not just inheriting them
- High ownership mentality with strong collaboration instincts — you know when to lead and when to align
- Clear, compelling communicator who can represent a company's mission and culture with authenticity
- Comfortable managing multiple searches simultaneously without compromising quality or candidate experience
- Candidates based in or willing to relocate to San Francisco
- Be the first in-house recruiter at a company redefining supply chain infrastructure with AI
