About the Role
Paraform is disrupting how companies hire — and we're looking for someone to help us hire the best people to do it. We're looking for an experienced, high-powered Technical Recruiter who lives and breathes talent and is an expert working with early stage and high growth startups. You'll primarily be focused on sourcing top 1% talent to join the Paraform team, driving a culture of excellence, and supporting the company with everything else hiring-related as we rapidly scale.
You'll be hands-on sourcing, closing, and iterating on our process — while also laying the recruiting infrastructure that scales with us.
What You'll Do
Full-Cycle Recruiting: Own sourcing, screening, interviewing, and closing candidates across multiple functions
Talent Strategy: Work with the founders and hiring managers to set our talent bar, hiring goals, candidate experience, and employer branding
Talent Operations: Own candidate coordination, recruiting tools (including Paraform!), and continuously improve our hiring processes and structures
People Ops: Have the option to own HR/People Ops in the interim on an as-needed basis
Promote Paraform: Serve as a genuine ambassador for Paraform's mission — you should be able to speak credibly about our product, our market, and why the best candidates should want to work here
What We're Looking For
4+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience for non-technical and GTM roles, ideally with time spent in-house at a high-growth VC backed startup (Seed to Series C)
Proven track record closing strong candidates in a competitive market
Deep sourcing chops — you're not waiting on inbound; you know how to find people and get them interested
High ownership mentality and comfort operating without a playbook
Builder mindset — excited to create process and structure where there isn't any
Familiarity with the recruiting industry or marketplace businesses is a plus (and genuinely interesting to us)
Paraform is the first end-to-end AI recruiting marketplace, modernizing one of the largest and most fragmented markets in the world: hiring. We connect companies with thousands of specialized recruiters and AI agents that work together to fill roles faster and more accurately.
We believe recruiting works best when human judgment is paired with AI that truly understands hiring. That's why we treat recruiters like entrepreneurs, not vendors, and build the financial, operational, and technical infrastructure that powers their success.
Industry leaders like Decagon, Palantir, Rippling, Abridge, and Hightouch hire through Paraform, and we grew revenue 8× last year. We're backed by Scale, Felicis, A*, BOND, Liquid 2, DST Global, and the founders of YouTube, Instacart, Canva, and more.
Our mission is to make hiring fast, reliable, and scalable for every company in the world. For more on where we're headed, read our company vision.
