About the Company

This company is building an AI-powered cloud radiology platform, replacing 25-year-old on-premise imaging and reporting software. Radiologists using the platform complete more exams per diem and realize a 2x increase in revenue. The company is a well-funded Series A (Top-Tier VC Backed) with backing from notable industry angels.

"You'd be the first recruiter and work directly with the founder and leadership team on every hire that shapes the company — with clear growth paths into People Operations, Talent Leadership, or HR as the team scales from ~30 to 50+."

Why Candidates Should Join
  • AI-native from the ground up — replacing legacy radiology tools with a modern cloud platform
  • Already generating enterprise revenue with radiology groups actively using the product nationwide
  • Founding role with direct founder/CEO access on every hire
  • Clear growth paths into People Operations, Talent Leadership, or HR as the team scales
What You'll Do
  • Own full-cycle recruiting across engineering, sales, and operations — from sourcing through close — as the company's first dedicated recruiter
  • Partner directly with the founder/CEO and hiring managers to define roles, shape job descriptions, and align on what great candidates look like
  • Build top-of-funnel pipelines from scratch using LinkedIn, referrals, and creative sourcing channels — then double down on what works
  • Establish foundational recruiting systems, interview processes, and tools (including Ashby) to replace the current ad hoc approach
  • Deliver an excellent candidate experience at every touchpoint, serving as the first impression of the company for prospective hires
  • Run first-round screens and evaluate candidates for culture add, drive, and early-stage fit
  • Track recruiting metrics and continuously improve processes to hire faster and better as the team scales from ~30 employees
  • Represent the company's mission and culture to the talent market, pitching the company compellingly against larger offers
Requirements
✔ Required
  • 2–4 years of full-cycle recruiting experience in tech/startups
  • Recruited at early-stage startups (sub-50 employees)

  • Experience building recruiting processes and systems from scratch
  • Operates independently and makes decisions with limited guidance
  • Warm, high-energy communicator who sells candidates on the company
  • Quick learner who can deeply understand technical business context
  • Excited to be first recruiter and own the talent function

  • Strong outbound sourcing skills (LinkedIn, creative channels)
  • Based in San Francisco; on-site 5 days/week required
👍 Nice to Have

✖ Traits to Avoid
  • Only large-company recruiting experience, no startup exposure
  • Needs defined playbooks and heavy structure to operate
  • Agency-only background with no in-house experience
