We’re looking for a Lead Tech Recruiter (to join our current team of 3) and build the hiring engine that will shape the next generation of social products. You’ll be one of amo’s first team of recruiters and play a foundational role in scaling our tech and product teams, from vision to execution, outreach to offer.
You’ll help build a world-class team of mobile engineers, backend Rust developers, designers, and product minds, all while creating an unforgettable candidate experience that mirrors amo’s values: playfulness, depth, and integrity.
Partner deeply
Work side-by-side with founders and hiring managers to define what great looks like across roles.
Shape role definitions, scorecards, and interview plans across iOS, Android, Rust Backend, SRE, and beyond.
Own the full funnel
From outbound sourcing to closing, you’ll own end-to-end hiring for key roles.
You'll build scalable pipelines proactively, you won't be waiting for inbound.
Source like a pro
Go beyond LinkedIn. Find hidden gems. Engage with engineers who care deeply about performance, architecture, and craft.
Adapt your approach per profile: mobile engineers who optimize Metal shaders aren't found the same way as Rust backend developers who love zero-copy data pipelines.
Design exceptional processes
Implement clear, fast, candidate-first recruiting workflows.
Help us scale quality without adding bureaucracy, speed and excellence aren’t mutually exclusive here.
Make candidates feel something
Deliver a candidate experience that feels personal, respectful, and genuine. Our interviews should reflect the same care we put into our apps.
Bring insight
Share real-time market trends, salary benchmarks, and sourcing data with hiring managers to guide strategic decisions.
Experience in recruiting for technical roles (agency or in-house, ideally both).
Mastery of sourcing, you’re not afraid to go deep and get creative.
Ownership mentality, you don’t wait to be told, you act.
Strong communicator, with candidates and internal stakeholders alike.
High attention to detail, whether it’s scheduling an interview or crafting a cold message.
Based in Paris and available to work fully on-site, 5 days a week.
You've hired for mobile engineering teams (especially iOS/Android).
You’ve worked in early-stage startups where you’ve had to build systems from scratch.
You understand the language of craftsmanship, whether it’s in code or candidate experience.
You’ll be shaping the foundation of amo’s team at one of the most exciting early-stage social startups in Europe.
You’ll have autonomy, support, and real impact, no handcuffs, no “sourcing monkey” roles here.
You’ll help define not just who we hire, but how we hire.
To ensure that everyone is set up for success within our way of working, we work together onsite 5 days a week.
We wanted to make sure coming to the office was as comfortable as possible for you:
We chose a location in central Paris, near Opera (Metro lines 3,8,9 and RER A).
We have a beautiful Parisian-style office with high ceilings, balconies, and huge windows. So a lot of natural light!
Because life outside of work should also be stress-free, we cover:
Health care (100% coverage).
Maternity Leave, Paternity Leave, Second Parent Leave (salary maintained at 100%).
Vacation days: 8-9 weeks (total) per year - (European summer? 🥹😎).
5 weeks of paid time off (by the state);
1-2 additional weeks (RTT, based on our company contract);
~11 bank holidays.
We shut down entirely twice a year, two weeks in summer and one week in winter to allow everyone to truly recharge and to avoid prolonged slowdowns (especially in the summer). These pauses are part of your total vacation time, giving everyone a real chance to unplug and recharge. No Slack, no email, no FOMO.
We love the diverse perspectives we get from having people from all over the world join us (68% of our team is international), and so we of course support relocation to Paris with:
Help and sponsored visa process.
1 month of Airbnb 100% covered by amo upon arrival.
Assistance from a trusted relocation agency to find your permanent home.
Help with french paperwork like opening a french social security account, tax forms, getting your carte vitale (free healthcare) and more.
French lessons to be fully set with your new Parisian life.

What We Do
Welcome to amo
The bike rides. The sleepovers. Your first cigarette. Gossiping about your latest crush. Being consoled when they break your heart. Discovering a new city. Re-discovering your own (at 2AM). The hungover brunches. The tears. The laughs. The love.
So many of the moments that shaped us were shared with friends.
And then those moments started happening online. Posting photos from last night’s party. Tagging your latest situationship. Poking your roommate (whatever that means??). It was exciting and well intentioned, but something got lost along the way. The platforms that were built to bring friends closer together became places we go to scroll through videos… of strangers.
We’re entertained, but where did our friends go?
A new kind of social company
We believe that friendship still deserves a place online. Our first app, ID, brought a new take on the social profile, providing a collaborative board for you and your friends to express yourselves on. And our second app, Bump, is the best map for friends — giving you a new home on your phone for the people and places most important to you. With Sugar, chatting with friends goes beyond the confines of a green or blue bubble. Drop whatever you want on an unlimited canvas, turning any conversation into art.
Together, the apps form the beginning of a new kind of social company. One that exists across multiple apps, but only one you. And with many more ideas for new ways to bring you closer to your friends. We’re going to experiment, build, re-build again, and no doubt get lots wrong along the way. But we hope that what we get right earns its place on your home screen — as a new collection of apps that serve you and your friends above all else.
On amo, your profile, friendships, and settings are shared across the apps. Trying a new one takes no time at all as your info (and your friends!) are already waiting for you. When we have new ideas, we won’t be constrained by an ever-growing tab bar and the four corners of just one app. We’ll make something entirely new and give you the choice on whether to use it or not. Take what you need, ignore what you don’t.
We feel a real responsibility when it comes to creating stuff for you and your friends — and doing so the right way. We believe that the company that survives long term in this space is the one that aligns itself closest with your best interests. So to keep ourselves accountable, we developed some principles that guide what we do.
