Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.
About the RoleAs a Recruiting Coordinator at Cursor, you'll be the person who makes candidates feel genuinely welcomed through every interaction, and the person our hiring teams rely on to keep everything running like clockwork. You'll be part scheduling tetris wizard, part host, and part operations builder.
This is an opportunity to be part of building something from the ground up. The team you help hire today will shape what Cursor becomes. This role is for you if you love the satisfaction of getting things done quickly, thrive in environments that are fluid and constantly evolving, obsess over learning new things, and enjoy meeting and interacting with new people.
We're in-person in our cozy offices in the heart of North Beach (SF) and Soho (NY).
What You'll DoOwn the full scheduling experience including interview coordination so every candidate and interviewer shows up informed, prepared, and on time.
Host candidates onsite and create an experience that's warm, human, and memorable while adapting to different personalities and making everyone feel at home.
Keep candidates and hiring teams in the loop throughout the process with timely, warm, and clear communication.
Partner closely with recruiters, interviewers, and hiring managers to anticipate needs, solve problems in real time, and keep things moving.
Keep our ATS (we use Ashby) accurate and up to date so nothing falls through the cracks.
Constantly finding and executing on opportunities to improve how we operate.
Have 2-4+ years in a recruiting coordinator, recruiting operations, or similar role in a fast-paced technical environment.
Obsess over the details. You’re the kind of person who triple-checks the calendar invite timezone before hitting send.
See inefficiency as a personal challenge. You take initiative, own your work, bring new ideas without being asked, and use good judgement to execute on improvements.
Care deeply about the experience of everyone in the process: the candidate who flew across the country to meet the team, the hiring manager trying to make the right hiring decision, the interviewer running from back-to-back meetings, and you care about making it great for all of them.
Stay calm and focused while holding many moving pieces together.
People describe you as incredibly reliable and responsive.
Genuinely love meeting new people and have a natural warmth that puts people at ease, whether they're introverted or extroverted.
Comfortable handling confidential information with discretion.
Bonus: experience with Ashby is a plus.
