CloudZero • San Francisco, CA

18d

About The Position

CloudZero is growing fast. Our enterprise customer base is expanding, our product is getting more powerful, and our team is scaling to match. As a Talent Acquisition Partner you'll own full-cycle recruiting across the business, spanning Engineering, Product, Design, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and beyond. You'll play a direct role in shaping the team that takes CloudZero through its next stage of growth.
You'll be a partner to the business. You'll own the entire recruiting motion from defining what great looks like for a role to getting an offer signed, and you'll help build the systems and practices that make our hiring engine faster and more effective over time. You'll work directly with hiring managers and leadership across every function, with real influence over how this company is built at a place that moves fast, operates with high trust, and genuinely cares about the quality of every hire.
If you thrive in fast-moving environments, are equally comfortable recruiting a Staff Engineer and an Account Executive, and take pride in the craft of recruiting, this role was built for you.

Requirements

• 4+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience with demonstrated range across both technical roles (Engineering, Product, Design) and business roles (Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, G&A) in fast-paced, high-growth B2B SaaS environments
• Proven ability to run a full recruitment process independently, from first outreach to signed offer, across multiple functions simultaneously
• Strong track record partnering with hiring managers to scope roles, refine requirements, and close top-tier candidates at all levels
• Ability to shift context fluidly, credibly engaging with an engineering hiring manager on technical requirements and a sales leader on GTM talent in the same week
• Comfort building and improving process: scorecards, interview frameworks, sourcing strategies, and recruiting tools
• Solid knowledge base and passion for leveraging AI tools to enhance recruiting velocity and candidate quality
• Strong pattern recognition built from real hiring experience across functions, able to evaluate candidates on core traits, motivations, and potential using structured criteria
• Excellent communication and proactive stakeholder management skills; you keep hiring managers informed and aligned without being asked

Nice To Haves

• Experience recruiting for cloud infrastructure, FinOps, DevOps, or data platform companies
• Familiarity with technical buyers or sellers, roles that sit at the intersection of sales and technical knowledge
• Experience recruiting senior or principal-level engineers and understanding what differentiates exceptional technical talent
• Experience contributing to employer brand, recruiting playbooks, or scaling initiatives

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end recruiting across technical and non-technical functions including Engineering, Product, Design, Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing: sourcing, outreach, screening, stakeholder alignment, interviews, enablement, and offer processes
• Partner closely with hiring managers and leadership across the business to define hiring needs, scope roles, and calibrate on what great looks like
• Build and maintain strong pipelines of active and passive candidates across a diverse range of functions and levels
• Bring market expertise across both technical and GTM talent: advising leaders on talent landscape, compensation trends, and competitive dynamics for each function
• Build and iterate on recruiting processes, tools, and scorecards to drive speed, quality, and consistency across every hiring experience
• Track and communicate pipeline health, priorities, and tradeoffs clearly to stakeholders so hiring decisions are efficient and well-informed
• Deliver an exceptional candidate experience that reflects CloudZero's bar for quality and professionalism at every touchpoint
• Deeply leverage AI and modern recruiting platforms to enhance sourcing velocity, efficiency, and pipeline quality
