The company is the market leading AI voice agent for mortgage lenders. Since they started in mid 2024, they have signed 5 of the 10 largest independent mortgage banks in the US as enterprise customers. They went from ~$0 to $13M annualized revenue over the past 20 months, and they currently make around 500k calls a day. Product-market fit is a crazy feeling, and the next 12 months will be even crazier.
They are far and away the market leader in their space. In the very near future, most mortgages will be originated by AI; they are in the best position of anyone in the market to do it. If they are successful, they will eventually make everyone's mortgage 1% cheaper, and they will make an enduring and valuable company along the way.
They are a team of 15 and planning to hire ~40 people over the next 12 months across all functions including engineering, product, and sales. They have raised $21M across their Seed and Series A from top investors.
This role is for the company's first in-house recruiter. That means the candidate is not inheriting a process, but building it from the ground up. They will own the full recruiting lifecycle across all functions. They will build the sourcing muscle, establish the candidate experience, and be the person the CEO and the team trust to fill critical roles fast and at a high bar.
This is not a coordination role. The company needs someone who can source, close, and build processes simultaneously. Ideally they have done this before at an early-stage company.
Real scope, early. The recruiter will own recruiting at a company that's winning a huge market.
Hiring is the #1 annual goal right now. The company is growing from 15 to 40+ in 12 months. The recruiter will have the CEO's full attention, a real tools budget, and the authority to build this function the right way from the start.
The recruiter will shape how the company hires forever. The processes, culture, and bar they set in the next 12 months will define how this company scales. That's a rare thing to own.
The office. The company is near Montgomery BART in SF, in office Monday–Tuesday–Thursday–Friday, remote Wednesdays.
The vibe. The team is a really great, genuine fun team where everyone is high-powered and works hard, but they don't take themselves too seriously.
