About the Role

As Talent Operations Coordinator supporting R&D, you're the reason candidates leave every interaction feeling genuinely taken care of—and the person our researchers, engineers, and R&D leadership count on when they need something to just work. Part calendar guru, part host, part quiet fixer of whatever's about to go sideways, you make sure hiring never becomes the bottleneck. The people you help bring on now will shape what Cognition's R&D team looks like for years. This role fits you if you get a kick out of solving logistics puzzles fast, don't mind things changing under you week to week, and actually enjoy the chaos of meeting new people all day.

Analyze R&D team hiring processes and meeting structures to identify and implement improvements.
Compile data on hiring pace, time to hire, and team growth for leadership.
Assist in organizing team events, offsites, and research presentations.
Proactively identify and address process inefficiencies to build more scalable solutions.
