About the company
Our client is a fast-growing software company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own hiring from first conversation through accepted offer across a mix of open positions, from steady-volume roles to hard-to-fill specialist searches. Find and engage candidates who are not actively looking, persuade them to join, and help establish the recruiting operations needed to support growth. Partner closely with talent leadership and the founders.
What you'll do
- Manage several searches at once, covering both ongoing-volume positions and specialist, hard-to-fill ones.
- Concentrate early on go-to-market hiring, including founding sales roles.
- Research talent markets, identify passive candidates and craft personalized, creative outreach to fill pipelines.
- Present the opportunity compellingly to top candidates, build momentum and close them against competing offers.
- Begin with recruiting operations and administrative process work, then take on independent searches as responsibilities expand.
- Contribute to building the company's hiring framework, including how candidates are evaluated, how they are treated along the way and the tools that support the team as it grows.
Requirements

- Ability to work on-site five days a week in San Francisco, CA, or willingness to relocate.
