Recruiter

The Role

We're looking for a Recruiter to help assemble the next generation of Dirac. You'll work across the full recruiting lifecycle, from sourcing and inbound management through screening, interview coordination, closing, and recruiting operations. You'll recruit individual contributors across Engineering, Product, Operations, Security, and GTM while helping build the systems and talent pipelines required to scale. We're looking for someone who can quickly understand what great looks like, take ownership of a search, and independently figure out how to find it.

Responsibilities

• Proactively source exceptional candidates through outbound campaigns, communities, events, and other sourcing channels
• Own inbound candidate management across open roles
• Screen candidates and assess experience, motivation, communication, trajectory, and fit
• Partner directly with hiring managers to define the talent bar and develop targeted sourcing strategies
• Coordinate interviews, onsite loops, scheduling, and candidate logistics
• Maintain accurate candidate records, pipeline stages, notes, and reporting within our ATS
• Support references, offers, closing, and pre-onboarding
• Build relationships with universities and student organizations and attend recruiting events, career fairs, and networking events
• Improve recruiting processes, systems, tooling, and operational efficiency as we scale

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience sourcing and placing exceptional talent into high-growth technology startups
• A demonstrated ability to identify AAA-caliber candidates, not simply generate pipeline volume
• Strong experience using LinkedIn Recruiter and other outbound sourcing tools
• Hands-on experience operating an ATS and maintaining disciplined recruiting data - this is a must-have
• Strong understanding of modern AI tools and a track record of using them to improve speed, quality, and efficiency
• Experience proactively sourcing talent rather than relying primarily on inbound applicants
• Ability to recruit across technical and non-technical functions, particularly Engineering, Product, Security, Operations, and GTM
• Strong judgment and the ability to quickly distinguish exceptional candidates from average ones
• High agency and autonomy - you are comfortable operating without hand-holding
• Ability to take an ambiguous hiring problem, build a plan, and execute independently
• Excited to join an early team and help scale the recruiting function

Nice to Have

• Experience recruiting for startups
• Experience with campus and university recruiting
• Familiarity with manufacturing industry

Why Dirac

You'll have meaningful ownership over who joins the company and work directly with leaders across the organization. This is an opportunity to become a true full-stack recruiter while helping build a company tackling one of the most important and technically challenging industries in the world. You'll be given significant responsibility, autonomy, and trust. In return, we expect intensity, judgment, resourcefulness, and a high standard of execution.
