Founding Recruiter

Edra • New York, NY

1d • $160,000 - $210,000

About The Position

Edra is solving one of the hardest problems in enterprise AI: AI models are generic but company processes are specific. We build AI agents that learn how processes actually run, and then run their operations. We're a Series A startup, backed by Sequoia and other leading VC firms, and we're growing our team in New York and London. We're a deeply technical team of engineers, AI researchers, and strategists with a high bar for talent and a shared belief that exceptional people are the foundation of everything great we'll build.

Requirements

• 4+ years of professional experience, with some experience sourcing & recruiting talent for top-tier tech orgs (even better if you have experience across both US & UK)
• Technical fluency: you speak engineer (maybe you even have a CS background), and have experience recruiting for complex engineering roles
• Interviewing expertise: you’re a skilled interviewer who can screen candidates thoughtfully to make sure our engineers are talking to the best of the best
• Builder mindset: you’ve built or rebuilt recruiting systems, processes, and teams from the ground up
• Hands-on operational chops: you’re comfortable with running recruiting ops, and building out the tooling needed to support your function and scale operations

Responsibilities

• Source exceptional talent: quickly understand our hiring profiles and fill top of funnel with strong candidates in both New York and London markets
• Lead early hiring: partner with Founders and hiring managers to recruit world-class engineers and technical talent across disciplines
• Build the recruiting stack: design and implement recruiting operations from scratch, including ATS setup (Ashby), sourcing/CRM systems, interview loops, and candidate experience
• Run RecOps: keep our hiring machine moving, and help our hiring teams go from first intro to accepted offer fast and frictionlessly
• Scale yourself: as we continue to grow and ramp hiring, scale recruiting to support ongoing hiring needs (with a bias towards leveraging AI tooling to scale your impact before scaling the team).
• Sell the opportunity: sell Edra’s mission and opportunity to candidates, ensuring they leave every interaction more excited than when they came in
• Shape our early talent philosophy: Define how we hire, ensuring a consistent, fair, and high-bar interview process that optimizes speed to hire and reflects a strong employer brand
