Head of Talent

About the role

We want to build agents that autonomously validate code changes. Today that looks like AI that reviews pull requests in GitHub, catching bugs and enforcing standards.

Greptile reviews 5B lines of code every month for 22,000+ customers.

We’re hiring a Head of Talent to scale our engineering and GTM teams following our Series B. You’ll own recruiting across the company, build and coach a lean recruiting team, and personally run our hardest searches from sourcing through close.

You should want to stay hands-on in recruiting. We’re looking for someone with the judgment to recognize exceptional people, the credibility to win them over, and the ability to help other recruiters do the same.

Trajectory

• 22,000+ customers
• 5B lines of code reviewed every month

Responsibilities

• Personally source, assess, and close exceptional engineers, GTM hires, and leaders

• Use funnel data, hiring outcomes, and candidate feedback to diagnose stalled searches and improve how we hire
• Develop sourcing channels through direct outreach, referrals, and founder and investor networks
• Own external search partners and recruiting tools, using AI to remove manual work without losing personal judgment or candidate care
• Give candidates a thoughtful, fast-moving experience from the first conversation through joining

Qualifications

• 8+ years of recruiting experience at technology companies, including leading a recruiting team through rapid growth
• Experience leading both technical and GTM recruiting, with a track record of hiring strong engineers and salespeople

• A track record of attracting, recognizing, and developing excellent recruiters
• Strong recruiting judgment and the ability to explain what made a hire successful, what you got wrong, and what you changed
• Credibility with founders, engineering leaders, and GTM leaders, including the ability to challenge an unclear hiring bar constructively

• You enjoy working directly with founders and hiring managers on difficult searches
• The pace and ambiguity of a fast-growing AI company are exciting to you
• You prefer working in person with a small, ambitious team
