Founding Recruiter

AI overview

Architect the hiring process at Numeral by implementing structured interview systems and leading outbound sourcing for top talent in a rapidly scaling environment.

The Opportunity

We are at a critical inflection point. Numeral is scaling from 80 to 300 employees over the next few years. To do that without breaking our culture or lowering our bar, we need more than just a recruiter who fills seats—we need an architect.

As our Founding Recruiter, you won’t just be closing candidates; you will build the operating system for how Numeral hires. You will partner directly with our Founders and C-suite to define what "great" looks like, implement the infrastructure (Ashby, scorecards, training) to get us there, and personally headhunt the leadership and engineering talent that will define our future.

Numeral is scaling quickly and will likely more than double headcount in the next year. To do that without breaking our culture or lowering our bar, we need a thoughtful talent partner to architect a system.

As our Founding Recruiter, you won’t just be closing candidates; you will build the operating system for how Numeral hires. You’ll partner directly with our Founders and execs to define what "great" looks like and implement the talent infra (Ashby, scorecards, etc). That said, as startup, we all roll up our sleeves, so you’ll mostly be getting stuff done and executing.

What You’ll Actually Do

  • Build the "Talent Machine": We are moving past ad-hoc hiring. You will design and implement structured interview loops, scorecarding, and interviewer training to ensure every hire raises the average.

  • Hunt, Don't Just Gather: You know the best candidates aren't applying to job boards. You will lead outbound sourcing strategies to extract top-tier talent from other high-growth tech companies.

  • Own the Stack: You are the admin and architect of our hiring funnel (Ashby, sourcing tools, etc).

  • Protect the Experience: You will ensure that every candidate leaves the process respecting Numeral.

Who You Are

  • A Full-Stack Recruiter: You have 4+ years of experience and have seen the movie before. You are comfortable pivoting between recruiting a Senior Infra Engineer in the morning and a Tax Manager in the afternoon

  • Creative: world class sourcing is an art that requires a sophisticated world model and ability to make connections

  • High Agency: You don’t wait for permission to fix broken processes.

  • Tech-Native: You are comfortable with modern recruiting stacks and sourcing tools
