Requirements
- Join us and help shape the future of AI by defining the narrative around document understanding.
- ABOUT LLAMAINDEX LlamaIndex is building the document infrastructure layer for AI agents- from industry-leading document OCR with LlamaParse to workflow products that help enterprises automate knowledge work over documents.
- Your primary focus will be technical hiring across AI/ML, infrastructure, full-stack engineering, and developer tools, with company-wide coverage across GTM, marketing, and operations.
- - A modern recruiting stack, including configuring, optimizing, and instrumenting Ashby and AI-powered sourcing tools so the funnel is fast, measurable, and high-quality.
- You’ll be the steward of the bar and the person who helps teams make better hiring decisions. - Build-vs-buy decisions on agencies and external partners, including when to scale support up or down, how to manage budgets, and how to hold partners accountable. - Responsible use of AI in recruiting.
- You know AI can expand reach and speed, but judgment, calibration, and candidate quality matter more than volume.
- You’ll set the standard for how we use AI tools without letting automation run unchecked.
- WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR - 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally as an early or founding recruiter at a high-growth startup. - A strong track record hiring niche technical talent across AI/ML, infrastructure, platform engineering, or developer tools. -
- - Fluency with modern sourcing and AI recruiting tools, with strong judgment around quality, signal, and automation.
- - Nice to have: familiarity with AI/ML, open-source developer communities, developer tools, or agency/vendor management.
Additional details
- We’re growing quickly, and the way we hire over the next few years will shape the company we become.
- We’re looking for someone who can help us build a high-quality, high-velocity hiring engine from the ground up.
- ABOUT THE ROLE We’re looking for a senior Talent Leader to build our recruiting function from 0 to 1.
- We’re past the earliest stage as a company, but still early in how we operate talent: the systems, standards, rituals, tools, and hiring muscle are still being built.
- You’ll set the strategy, build the infrastructure, and personally run searches for our most critical and hardest-to-fill roles.
