About Standard Bots

The all-in-one, most intuitive, most affordable industrial robots. Backed by General Catalyst.

About the role

We're looking for a Senior Recruiter who is scrappy, sourcing-obsessed, and built for startup chaos. You don't wait for candidates to apply. You find them, write copy that actually gets responses, run multi-stage outreach sequences, test subject lines, tweak messaging when response rates drop, and close people who have other offers on the table.

What they're looking for

  • - 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally with a meaningful portion focused on manufacturing, industrial, or hardware environments
  • - Sourcing-first mindset! You love the hunt. You're most comfortable when you're building pipelines, not waiting on inbound
  • - Demonstrated experience running and optimizing multi-stage outreach sequences. You track open rates, response rates, and conversion, and you actually do something when the numbers aren't good
  • - A sharp eye for copy
  • - Direct experience hiring across a range of manufacturing roles — hourly production workers, skilled trades, manufacturing engineers, and operations leadership
  • - Startup or high-growth experience where you operated without a playbook, without hand-holding, and figured it out anyway

This Senior Recruiter role is quite literally building the team that’s building the robots!

You'll work super closely with manufacturing leadership and own hiring across our entire factory floor, from entry-level assembly technicians to plant managers, manufacturing engineers, quality leads, and everyone in between.
