About the Role
Clark is building the trust infrastructure for the AI economy, starting with audit and accounting workflows. This role is for a Founding Recruiter, Clark's first dedicated recruiting owner, who will build and own the entire hiring process from scratch. The position offers significant scope and a clear path to leading the talent function.
Responsibilities
- Own Clark's recruiting pipeline across all active roles
- Source candidates directly across engineering, AI, GTM, CS, infrastructure, and audit-domain roles
- Build and run the hiring tracker, recruiting cadence, and weekly reporting to the founders
- Design and improve our interview process — scorecards, loops, feedback discipline
- Manage external recruiting firms and hold them to quality and velocity
- Coordinate interviews, feedback loops, and candidate communications end to end
- Build sourcing strategies for hard-to-fill technical and domain roles
- Track conversion, bottlenecks, and hiring risk across the funnel
- Help close exceptional candidates by tailoring the Clark narrative to what actually motivates them
Requirements
- 2–5 years of recruiting, sourcing, or talent acquisition experience — in-house or agency
- Genuinely fast. You move in hours, not days, and you don't need to be chased
- High ownership. When something is broken you fix it or flag it, you don't route around it
- Strong outbound instincts — you're comfortable cold-reaching senior people and writing outreach that gets replies
- Excellent written communication. You'll be the first human a candidate meets and you'll set the bar for how Clark reads
- Organized under pressure — many roles, many stakeholders, nothing dropped
- Comfortable with ambiguity and building from zero. There is no playbook here yet; you're writing it
- Ambitious about growing quickly, and willing to put in the hours to earn it
- Build AI Agents to help you do your job better
