Founding Recruiter

Lassie

Founding Recruiter

Our mission is to help small businesses run themselves. We're starting with doctors' offices, building autonomous systems that handle busywork and complete the workflows that keep the office moving every day. Our team is small, flat, and ambitious. We value craft, intellectual rigor, and direct communication.

About the Role

As Founding Recruiter, you'll help build the team that builds Lassie. You'll own recruiting end to end: finding exceptional talent, creating an excellent candidate experience, partnering closely with hiring managers, and raising the bar of what great looks like.

What You'll Do
  • Build Lassie's talent acquisition engine from scratch: strategy, process, tools, metrics, reporting, and brand
  • Own end-to-end recruiting across software engineering, GTM, and G&A
  • Partner with the founders and early hiring managers to define role requirements (MOCs) and design interview plans
  • Do initial screens, and manage candidates through every stage from first touch to offer close
  • Build talent pipelines across multiple simultaneous searches
  • Create and refine recruiting analytics (funnel health, conversion rates, time-to-hire metrics, and more)
  • Represent Lassie externally through events, meetups, and outbound messaging to raise awareness among top talent
  • Deliver an exceptional candidate experience and make sure every touchpoint reflects Lassie's values and ambition
What We're Looking For
  • You have 4+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience and deep expertise in sourcing, assessing, and closing top talent
  • You've mastered mapping talent-dense networks, sourcing, and maintaining long-term relationships with top talent
  • You've designed or built AI-native workflows for recruiting tasks, or have a strong instinct for where AI eliminates manual work without compromising the candidate experience or quality of decision-making

To start, you'll have a handful of conversations with our team and founders. If there is mutual excitement, we'll invite you to the office where you'll work on a small project and meet the team.
