Los Angeles, CA (onsite, including weekends) · $200,000–$275,000 + equity

A very well-funded energy company is moving from R&D into construction and manufacturing at scale. It needs a recruiting leader to build the team that hires for every phase. The bar is high and so are the resources: leaders and investors who will join sell calls, and a team of experienced builders who have done hard things before.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thinks like a talent scout, not a figurehead VP.

What you'll do

  • Lead a team of recruiters, a recruiting lead and a coordinator
  • Set the bar for who the company hires, and coach recruiters to find and win exceptional people
  • Run or close the most critical searches yourself, especially senior engineering hires
  • Bring leadership and investors into the close at the right moments
  • Plan hiring across R&D, construction and manufacturing as the company scales
  • Keep recruiting operations healthy, with support from a people systems partner

What you bring

  • Recruiting leadership at a high-growth, venture-backed company
  • Real technical recruiting depth: you can talk through engineering problems and get great engineers excited
  • Sharp, emotionally intelligent judgment about people
  • Working knowledge of recruiting operations
  • Wants to be in the office with the team, weekends included

Nice to have: hiring across R&D, manufacturing or construction workforces; hard-tech, energy or aerospace background
