## About the role

This is a Business Recruiter role, working closely with our Lead Business Recruiter and the founding team. You will drive full-cycle hiring for our business and operations functions — Strategic Projects, Operations, GTM, and every business-side function we build out — using the sourcing engine, interview rubrics, and closing motion the team is building to bring in elite talent across every business-side hire we make.

## What they're looking for

- 4-7+ years of experience across agency and in-house recruiting. A track record of identifying, attracting, and closing strong talent
- Intense work ethic, agency, and drive. You're a builder first, and thrive in ambiguity
- Competitive nature and demonstrated past success across whatever you've done
- Strong communication skills — you can hold your own opposite a founder, a Jane Street trader, or a GTM leader, and you build pipelines that founders trust
- A genuine interest in the AfterQuery thesis: that the future of AI is bottlenecked on human data, and that the talent generating, designing, and bringing that data to market is the most important hiring decision the company makes
- High agency, low ego, speedy but thoughtful. Comfortable in a 5-day in-office SF environment that prizes speed and direct feedback
