Tasks

We are looking for a Talent Operator to join us as our first dedicated internal talent hire. This isn't a traditional recruiting role; you will be the "internal engine" of the company, working directly with the founders to build a world-class team from the ground up.

You're someone who views talent as a strategic puzzle. You’ll be responsible for managing our external partners, and building the operational infrastructure that allows us to scale. As we grow toward 200 employees, you will have the clear path to progress.

What you'll own

• The Orchestrator: Manage the end-to-end hiring machine. You’ll liaise internally with hiring managers to define roles and externally with elite search firms to ensure our pipeline is always moving.


• Founder Partnership: Work hand-in-hand with founders to define hiring bars, and ensure a world-class candidate experience


• Systems & Data: Own the CRM/ATS. You’ll keep our data pristine, ensuring every candidate interaction is tracked and every follow-up is executed with precision


• Operations: Handle the heavy lifting of high-volume scheduling, interview coordination

Requirements

Who you are

• 0–3 Years of Experience: You might be a recent grad from a top-tier college or someone with early experience at a VC, high-growth startup, or recruitment company


• High agency, full ownership. You don't wait for direction or for the perfect brief. You identify opportunities and get excited running the experiments yourself.


• The "Internal Engine": You are hyper-organised and thrive on making things run more efficiently. You don't just find problems; you build the process to fix them.


• Excited by Talent: You believe that finding the right person for the right seat is the most important lever in a company’s success.

Bonus points

• You understand the landscape and can speak the language of technical founders and engineers.


• You’ve worked at a top-tier VC firm, or participated in a program like YC, where you learned how to spot talent


• You’ve interned or worked at high-intensity, high-growth crypto projects (e.g., in a non-technical capacity like Ops or HR at a place like Polymarket) and understand the pace required to win.

Benefits

Base Salary + equity

• Understands (and ideally has experience at) start ups
