We're looking for a dynamic, highly organized Recruiting Coordinator to help us scale our team without ever compromising on experience. This is a high-velocity role at the heart of our hiring engine. You'll keep dozens of moving parts in sync, bring order to ambiguity, and make every candidate and hiring partner feel like they're our only priority. If you thrive when the path isn't fully mapped out, move fast without dropping details, and genuinely care about how people are treated, you'll do great here.

WHAT YOU BRING
- 2–4 years of experience as a Recruiting Coordinator, ideally in a fast-paced or high-growth environment

- Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple priorities simultaneously without losing the thread
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, with proactive, clear, and warm follow-through
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively, adapting fast in a rapidly changing startup environment
- Proficiency with various ATSs (Ashby preferred)
