13d•$140,000 - $180,000•Onsite

About The Position

This is a true 0→1 recruiting role. You'll build the team that builds Forgepoint. You'll own full-cycle recruiting across engineering and go-to-market: sourcing, pipeline, candidate experience, and close. You'll be hands-on and high-volume, and you'll set the bar for how we hire as we scale from a small founding team to many. You'll work directly with the founders and hiring managers to define what "great" looks like for each role, run a fast and thoughtful process, and give every candidate an experience that reflects how much we care about the team. This is a seat for a builder who wants to shape a company through the people they bring in.
