Recruiter

Old problem, new $25B+ market

Companies like AWS, Stripe, and Twilio have shown that if a technology isn't core to your value proposition, you should offload it. Still, every engineering team builds and rebuilds one piece: authorization, how you control who has access to what in your app. We intend to change that.

We see a world where developers never roll their own authorization again, and instead say, "Just use Oso" – the same way you might say, "Oh, you should just use Postgres for that." In doing so, we're creating the $25B+ authorization market.

Why Oso?

We have the lead – in traction, capital, and team.

• Traction: Oso is used by thousands of companies from startups to the Fortune 500, like Wayfair, Arc, Intercom, Visa, Oxide, Codecademy, Verizon, Productboard, Duolingo, and Jasper.

• Capital: We're the best-capitalized, with 4+ years of runway from the world’s best investors, including Sequoia, Felicis, and infrastructure entrepreneurs like Olivier Pomel (Founder, Datadog), Dev Ittycheria (CEO, MongoDB), Arman Dadgar (Founder, Hashicorp), Edith Harbaugh (Founder, LaunchDarkly), Guy Podjarny (Founder, Snyk), Paul Copplestone, (Founder, Supabase), Christina Cacioppo (Founder, Vanta), and Calvin French-Owen (Founder, Segment).

• Team: We've spent 5+ years going deep on the domain. We've met with thousands of engineering teams and know more about this problem than anyone. And we have two of the best developer go-to-market leaders on earth who have done it before at MongoDB and Snyk.

Why now?

We're at an inflection point. What it takes to get from where we are today to a world where developers say “Just use Oso” is going to be different. And we see that.

The opportunity is for you to join at this inflection point, in a role that’s bigger and different than usual.

What you'll do

• Build and own the end-to-end recruiting process for all roles across engineering, go-to-market, and G&A. Build the playbook as you go

• Be a sourcing machine

• Get deep on our culture and our customers so you can paint a vision for why candidates should join Oso

• Qualify out candidates who are unlikely to make it through our process

• Proactively calibrate with hiring managers to get tight on what we need

• Run your own recruiting forecast and be accountable to our recruiting targets

• Measure and report on our funnel; conduct ad hoc analyses to identify trends and gaps, and diagnose issues

Who you are

• You're ambitious. You want to win big. You go full speed after the best candidates and help them get through the process as fast as possible.

• You're an owner. You're accountable to the recruiting number and quality of the team, over the process. You prioritize the company's success and don't try to just fill the seat.

• You want to grow, and help others grow. You self-reflect often. You are constantly asking hiring managers and candidates for feedback.
