Senior Recruiter (GTM, G&A)

Skylo Technologies•Mountain View, CA

2d•$125,000 - $155,000•Onsite

About The Position

Skylo is seeking a Senior Recruiter to manage full-cycle hiring for their G&A and GTM teams. This role involves not just filling positions but also improving the hiring system by refining role definitions, candidate evaluation, and closing strategies. The ideal candidate will act as a valuable partner to hiring managers, making their recruitment processes more predictive and effective. Skylo is a company that has pioneered a standards-based approach to satellite connectivity, enabling existing devices to connect to satellites without special hardware. Their direct-to-device service is operational globally, connecting millions of devices and covering vast areas. The company operates at the intersection of consumer devices, automotive, and industrial IoT, providing connectivity in remote locations. This is an opportunity to work on impactful technology at a company that is already demonstrating its success.

Requirements

3-5 years of in-house G&A or GTM recruiting at a startup or scale-up - primarily as a solo recruiter or as part of a small team building out a scaling org. Agency recruiting earlier in your career is welcome as a foundation, but your most recent and most meaningful work should be in-house at a high-velocity company.
Demonstrated partnership with hiring managers: examples of how you've shaped a role definition, built or evolved an interview loop, or pushed back on a search that wasn't going to work.
Track record of process improvement - interview rubric overhauls, ATS workflow redesign, sourcing methodology shifts, candidate experience upgrades. Tell us about a system you made better, not just a req you closed.
Native fluency with AI in your daily workflow. We're not looking for "I've tried ChatGPT" - we want someone who already uses Claude or equivalent to draft outreach, synthesize candidate signals, run boolean strategy, and accelerate screening. AI curiosity is a baseline; AI workflow integration is the bar.
Comfort hitting and reporting on KPIs (pipeline velocity, offer acceptance, time-to-hire) without losing sight of quality. Numbers without judgment is a trap; judgment without numbers is a guess.
Skill in identifying niche technical talent across software, hardware, and satellite communications domains. You don't need a satellite background - you need to be willing to learn the vocabulary fast and source with precision in uncharted territory.
Experience closing complex offers by communicating mission, scope, and equity value - especially with passive candidates who weren't actively looking.
Bias toward proactive improvement: when you see a broken step in the funnel, you fix it instead of working around it.

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with Ashby and Metaview is a plus; experience with comparable modern ATS/interview-intelligence tools is fine - we care more about the instinct to use the tools well than the specific logos on your resume.

Responsibilities

Own full-cycle recruiting for high-impact roles across Sales, Marketing, Business Development, Finance and more.
Partner deeply with hiring managers on every search: clarify role definitions, design intentional interview loops, calibrate together on candidates, and revisit the loop when the signal isn't matching the bar.
Identify, improve, and own pieces of the hiring system - interview rubrics, scorecard design, sourcing playbooks, intake processes, candidate communications - not just execute the playbook you inherited.
Build AI-powered workflows into your daily practice: use Claude (we use Cowork), Ashby's AI features, Metaview, and the next tool you discover to source smarter, screen faster, and synthesize candidate signals more reliably.
Hit aggressive pipeline velocity and offer-acceptance targets while holding the quality bar - both matter, neither replaces the other.
Surface market insights, comp trends, and structural bottlenecks to hiring managers and leadership so we make better calls earlier.
Champion a candidate experience that reflects Skylo's mission and brand at every touchpoint - transparent communication, timely feedback, and a closing motion that reflects the seriousness of what we're building.
