## About the role

We're hiring a Founding Recruiter to build and run Destro's talent engine. This is one of the first ten hires at the company, and you will own hiring end-to-end as we scale from a small founding team to 20 to 30 new hires a year, most of them engineers. You will be hands-on, sourcing, closing, and building the process as you go, with direct access to the founders and no existing playbook to inherit. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 4 to 8 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with a strong track record hiring engineers. A headhunting or agency background is a big plus
- Direct experience recruiting robotics, hardware, or deep-tech engineering talent, or the ability to quickly become credible with that community
- Startup experience, comfortable being the only recruiter with no team or process handed to you
- Proven ability to source and close passive candidates on your own
- Urgency: the best candidates are rarely on the market and are often gone within days, so you act fast
- Resilience in a competitive, shifting talent market
