About the Role
We are hiring our first in-house recruiter to own full-cycle technical recruiting. This high-volume role is for someone who finds satisfaction in sourcing, running a tight process, and closing candidates, with a focus on technical talent for our growing engineering and product teams.
Responsibilities
- Own full-cycle technical recruiting — from kickoff through close — across engineering, product, and adjacent technical roles
- Build and run sourcing strategies that consistently surface high-caliber, often passive candidates
- Partner with hiring managers to calibrate the bar and run structured, high-signal interview loops
- Track and improve your own funnel metrics — time-to-fill, offer-accept rate, source quality
- Represent BackOps authentically to candidates — tell the story, build trust, close with conviction
- Manage multiple technical searches simultaneously without compromising quality or candidate experience
Requirements
- 4–7 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with meaningful time at early-stage or high-growth startups
- Proven track record hiring technical talent — engineers, infrastructure, product — with a high, well-calibrated bar
- A relentless sourcer who hunts passive candidates rather than waiting on inbound
- Strong closer with a track record of winning candidates against competing offers
- Clear, compelling communicator who can represent a company's mission and culture with authenticity
- Motivated by being the best in the market at full-cycle technical recruiting
- Based in or willing to relocate to San Francisco

About the Company
- BackOps is changing supply chain operations by building agentic AI that automates operational work. We are rethinking infrastructure from the ground up, not wrapping AI around legacy tools.
- We are ~50 people, headquartered in San Francisco, and backed by investors who support category-defining companies early and with conviction: our Series A was led by Theory Ventures, with participation from Gradient, Construct Capital, and 10VC.
- The problem is real, the timing is right, and we're building the team that will define how this space evolves.
