The Role

We’re looking for a highly capable Recruiting Operations Manager to focus on building and continuously improving a best-in-class recruiting engine. This role sits at the intersection of recruiter enablement, recruiting technology, data and analytics, process design and will manage our Recruiting Coordination function.

You’ll be trusted to own recruiting systems and insights end to end, proactively identifying opportunities to increase speed, improve quality of hire, and enable recruiters to operate as strategic talent advisors to the business. The ideal candidate is highly analytical, deeply operational, and excited about applying AI and automation to modernize how recruiting works.

In this role, you’ll:

• Own recruiter enablement across the full recruiting lifecycle, including workflows, operating rhythms, playbooks, and prioritization frameworks that improve efficiency and consistency.

• Design, implement, and continuously optimize recruiting processes that support high-quality hiring at scale across technical, corporate, and go-to-market roles.

• Own recruiting technology and tooling (including Ashby and related integrations), with a focus on simplification, automation, and scalability.

• Build and maintain recruiting dashboards and reporting that provide clear, actionable insights into pipeline health, capacity, hiring risks, and performance trends.

• Translate recruiting data into meaningful recommendations for recruiting leadership and hiring partners, enabling proactive decision-making.

• Identify and deploy AI-driven solutions to reduce manual work, improve signal quality, and increase recruiter leverage across sourcing, screening, and workflow automation.

• Partner closely with Recruiters, Recruiting Coordinators, and People Operations to ensure clean data, strong operational hygiene, and reliable reporting.

• Continuously identify friction points across the recruiting process and lead improvements that raise the bar on speed, quality, and candidate experience.

In one year, you’ll know you were successful if:

• Recruiters operate with greater clarity, speed, and confidence due to strong systems, tools, and insights.

• Recruiting data and dashboards are trusted by leadership and used to inform hiring decisions and capacity planning.

• Manual, low-value work has been reduced through improved processes, automation, and AI-enabled workflows.

• Hiring leaders experience recruiting as proactive, data-informed, and consultative.

• The recruiting engine scales effectively without unnecessary complexity or additional headcount.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has 6+ years of experience in Recruiting Operations, Talent Operations, or a closely related role.

• Has operated successfully as a senior individual contributor in a fast-paced, scaling environment.

• Brings a strong analytical mindset and can turn data into clear, actionable insights.

• Has hands-on experience owning or optimizing recruiting technology and systems.

• Is comfortable working in ambiguity and proactively owning problems end to end.

• Is outcome-oriented, detail-driven, and continuously looking for ways to improve how recruiting operates.

Experience with the following tools is a plus:
