## Job description

## Who We Are

[Serval](http://serval.com) is an AI-native automation platform transforming how enterprises operate. We build intelligent agents that understand real-world workflows and execute them end-to-end — replacing manual processes and rigid legacy systems with adaptive, learning software. Founded in early 2024, Serval is already trusted by companies like Fox, Notion, Perplexity, Vercel, and Brex to automate high-volume, high-friction operational work across their organizations.

At the core of Serval is an agentic AI platform that turns natural language into production-grade workflows. Our agents don’t just respond to requests — they reason, take action across systems, and continuously improve with usage. What began with operational use cases has quickly evolved into a horizontal AI automation layer used across IT, HR, Finance, Security, Legal, and Engineering.

Our mission is to eliminate repetitive, manual work across the enterprise and give teams leverage through intelligent automation. Long term, we’re building the universal AI operations layer — a system of agents that sits across business functions and runs the workflows that keep modern companies moving.

We’re backed by leading investors including Sequoia Capital, Redpoint Ventures, Meritech, First Round, General Catalyst, Elad Gil, and others.

## Role Overview

As Serval’s first Emerging Talent Recruiter, you’ll build and scale our emerging talent program from the ground up—creating a durable pipeline of early-in-career talent that fuels our mission to reinvent enterprise automation with AI. You’ll design and execute a university and early talent strategy that connects Serval to top students, student groups, and campus communities, translating our ambitious vision into opportunities for the next generation of builders. This is a high-impact, builder role for someone who thrives on ownership, velocity, and turning relationships into long-term talent engines.

## What You’ll Do

- Stand up and scale Serval’s emerging talent program across internships and new grad hiring.
- Build strong partnerships with universities, career centers, and student organizations to create a steady pipeline of high-caliber early-career talent.
- Own full-cycle recruiting for interns and new grads, delivering a fast, high-quality candidate experience.
- Partner with leaders to forecast needs and align hiring with company priorities.
- Establish clear processes, tools, and metrics to track performance and continuously improve outcomes.

## What You’ll Need

- 4+ years of recruiting experience, including 2+ years in university or early career recruiting in a high-growth environment.
- Proven experience building or scaling internship or university grad programs with measurable results.
- Strong relationship-building skills with universities and external partners.
- Ability to operate independently, manage multiple hiring cycles, and use data to drive decisions.
- Clear, compelling communicator who can represent Serval’s AI-driven mission to early-career talent.

## Nice to Have

- Experience recruiting technical talent (engineering, product, data).
- Background at an early-stage or venture-backed startup.
- Experience running campus events, hackathons, or technical programs.

## What We Offer

- Impact: Be a key player in shaping the success of our product and company.
- Growth: Build a fundamentally new AI product offering with the support of our experienced team and investors. Grow rapidly with the company.
- Culture: Join a culture that values innovation, ownership, accountability, and fun.

- **Target customers**: B2B; IT, Security, HR, and Workplace teams at mid-market and enterprise organizations
- **Mission statement**: “Reimagining the employee support experience” by helping everyone get out of the help desk and back to the work they enjoy.

## Products & Services
- **Serval Platform (AI-Native ITSM)**: A unified help desk, access management, and automation platform. Includes AI agents (Help Desk Agent, Automation Agent, Insights Agent) that handle requests, provision access, answer knowledge base questions, and surface workflow suggestions. Supports natural-language workflow creation, code-based workflows with no-code UI, and flexible deployment (cloud, hybrid, self-hosted).
- **Access Governance & Provisioning**: Manages access requests for any app, resource, or role with customizable policies, approvals, just-in-time provisioning, and automatic deprovisioning via SCIM, API, or AI-generated workflows.
- **Asset Management**: Automatically reconciles data from MDM, procurement, IdP, and HRIS into a single source of truth.
- **Knowledge Base**: Built-in docs with sync from Notion, Google Drive, Confluence; AI agent surfaces answers instantly.

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-native architecture**: Entire platform built around AI agents, not bolted-on AI. Workflows created via natural language.
