About The Position

We’re building at the frontier of crypto—where high-performance systems, distributed infrastructure, and exceptional people come together. Our team spans protocol, infrastructure, product, and business functions, and we’re looking for a world-class recruiter to help us scale thoughtfully across the entire company. This is a highly strategic, high-impact role. You won’t just fill roles—you’ll help shape the company. From deeply technical engineers to business-critical hires, you’ll be responsible for identifying, engaging, and closing exceptional talent across all domains.

Requirements

• 5-10 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with a mix of technical and non-technical hiring including global hiring across multiple regions and markets
• Proven ability to hire across the stack and across functions (Rust engineers to BD leads)
• Strong understanding of technical roles (systems, infra, backend) with the ability to assess talent depth
• Equally comfortable hiring for business roles
• Exceptional sourcing skills—especially for passive and hard-to-reach candidates
• Strong closer with a track record of landing high-caliber, competitive talent
• High ownership and autonomy—you operate like a builder, not a coordinator
• Excellent judgment and instincts for talent, culture, and long-term fit
• Experience in high-growth startups or zero-to-one environments

Nice To Haves

• Experience recruiting in crypto, blockchain, or adjacent technical domains
• Familiarity with highly technical profiles (e.g., Rust, C++, distributed systems, cryptography)
• Experience building recruiting infrastructure or being the first/early recruiting hire
• Existing network across both engineering and business talent pools

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end recruiting across a wide range of roles
• Partner with founders and functional leaders to define hiring strategy, org design, and headcount planning
• Build high-quality pipelines for both niche technical roles and business-critical positions
• Develop creative sourcing strategies to engage passive, high-caliber candidates across multiple disciplines
• Act as a trusted advisor on talent market dynamics, leveling, and compensation
• Drive a best-in-class candidate experience—from first touch through close
• Establish scalable recruiting processes, tools, and best practice

Benefits

• Above market compensation and multiple forms of equity
• 100% of employee health benefits covered by employer
• All-expenses-paid team retreats and conferences
• Generous PTO
• Weekly meal voucher
