Implementation Project Manager

At Emi Labs we are on a mission to increase Frontline Workers’ access to professional opportunities.

This is a 2.7 billion population that accounts for 80% of the world’s workforce. They are digitally invisible, as there’s little to no data available on who they are, their career history, or their skill set, limiting their access to professional opportunities and growth. We're here to transform this by building the infrastructure to make Frontline Workers visible. 

Our first step to achieving our mission is to transform the recruiting experience into an easy, human and fair process, for both candidates and companies with high-volume job openings.

Emi, our main product, is an A.I. recruitment assistant that enables companies to engage in a conversation with each applicant to detect interested and qualified individuals while saving Recruiters a huge amount of time by automating tasks such as screening, validating skills, scheduling interviews, and collecting documents. 

We were part of Y-Combinator's Winter 2019 batch and in 2022 we have raised an $11M funding round co-led by Merus Capital and Khosla Ventures.

About our Implementation Team

At Emi, we are focused on solving real problems for our customers and candidates, which is why we are a customer-focused company. Our implementation team is responsible for the initial diagnosis of the client, which means onboarding them to our platform, analyzing their recruiting process, and identifying their pains. Once this is assessed, our team is responsible for designing the best Emi solution for the client, as well as leading the setup of the tool, working together with the product and tech teams, and focusing on addressing the pains identified by the customers and adding value to their recruiting process.
