You'll own full-cycle recruiting with an emphasis on GTM roles, partner closely with leadership to build best-in-class hiring processes, and establish the recruiting infrastructure that will scale with Lyric's growth. You'll be responsible not only for delivering exceptional hires but also for building the systems, metrics, and employer brand that position Lyric as a destination for top-tier talent.

Partner with Hiring Managers and interviewers to design and execute best-in-class interview processes, including leading interviewer training, calibration sessions, and hiring enablement
Create and maintain a prioritization framework for recruiting support across all open roles, and serve as a strategic advisor for lower-priority roles that you are not managing end-to-end
