About the role

We're hiring a recruiter to own hiring for the commercial and operational core of Prior Labs in the US. You'll run end-to-end hiring for our go-to-market team (sales and partnerships) and for the operations functions that keep a fast-scaling AI company running effectively. This is a full-stack, hands-on role in a market where every strong seller and every good controller already has three other offers.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years in-house GTM and/or G&A recruiting at a high-growth startup (Series A and beyond), ideally in a technical or deep-tech product environment
  • Track record closing enterprise sales, partnerships, or revenue-leadership hires against better-funded competitors
  • Hands-on experience hiring finance or compliance profiles (accounting, FP&A, controller, legal/compliance ops) or a credible plan for how you'd get up to speed fast
  • Hiring in the US market, ideally NYC, exposure to EU hiring is a strong plus

We're a small, highly selective team of 40+ with backgrounds from Google, DeepMind, Meta, Apple, Amazon, Jane Street, and CERN, led by Frank Hutter , Noah Hollmann , and Sauraj Gambhir , and advised by Bernhard Schölkopf and Turing Award winner Yann LeCun.

In July 2026, less than 18 months after our €9M pre-seed, we joined SAP as an independent frontier AI lab - same team, mission, and open-weights models, now backed by more than €1 billion over four years.
