While increasing LTV and driving measurable growth, we help brands stay focused on what matters most - the customer. WHY JOIN US? We're a fast-moving team building a high-growth company that's transforming the e-commerce industry. We recently closed our growth round, and we're scaling fast across every function — engineering, growth, sales, customer success, and beyond. This is a founding recruiter role. You won't be inheriting a playbook, you'll be standing up the talent function from zero — sourcing strategy, interview loops, employer brand, tooling, comp philosophy, the works — and you'll do it as a true partner to the founding team. If you've ever wanted to own hiring at a company end-to-end, shape the bar across every role we make, and build the function the way you've always thought it should be built, this is that seat. ## ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES - Own end-to-end hiring across the entire company — engineering, product, sales, customer success, growth, operations, and leadership roles - Build the talent function from the ground up: ATS setup, sourcing infrastructure, interview rubrics, scorecards, calibration processes, and reporting - Run full-cycle recruiting yourself — sourcing, outreach, screening, coordinating, closing — until volume justifies hiring beneath you - Partner directly with the founder and hiring managers to define role profiles, calibrate the bar, and move quickly without sacrificing quality - Build a sourcing engine that doesn't rely on inbound — proactive outbound, referrals, communities, and creative channels - Own the candidate experience end-to-end, from first touch to offer accept, in a way that reflects how we operate as a company - Develop and refine our employer brand and hiring narrative as we scale - Use AI aggressively across the recruiting workflow — sourcing, screening, outreach personalization, scheduling, and pipeline analytics - Bring data and rigor to hiring: pipeline health, conversion rates, time-to-hire, source-of-hire, and quality-of-hire benchmarks - Lay the foundation for a future talent team — the systems, processes, and standards that will let us hire 10x from here ## WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR (IDEALLY) - 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with meaningful time spent at high-growth startups (Seed through Series B/C) - Proven track record hiring across functions — you've successfully closed senior engineers, GTM leaders, and CS hires, not just one swim lane - Founding-recruiter mentality — you've built (or are itching to build) a talent function from scratch and don't need an existing playbook to be effective - Exceptional sourcing chops — you can find and engage passive talent without leaning on agencies or inbound applicants - Strong closer — you understand candidate psychology, navigate competing offers, and consistently land top-of-market hires - AI-first operator — your default instinct is to use AI to streamline sourcing, outreach, screening, and ops; you actively experiment with new tools and workflows - High judgment on talent — you have a sharp internal bar and can calibrate it quickly to a hiring manager's needs - Comfortable operating with ambiguity, shifting priorities, and direct founder feedback - Bias toward speed without compromising on quality — you ship hires the way our engineers ship code ## COMPENSATION + BENEFITS - Competitive compensation, equity, and a commitment to your personal and professional growth. If this role sounds like it could be a fit, we'd love to hear from you! Feel free to reach out to our founder directly - asad@ltv.ai. Not looking but know someone who would make a great fit? Refer them - we pay up to $5000 for a successful hire! ## About LTV ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: LTV.ai builds an autonomous AI-native email and SMS marketing platform that creates, segments, personalizes, and sends campaigns for enterprise ecommerce brands. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series A, raised $5.2M in January 2025) - **Headquarters**: Houston, Texas, United States (with presence in Canada, India, and Spain) - **Founded**: Not publicly available (seed round in 2023) - **Founders**: Ahmed Raza, Ian E., Asad Rehman; Kevin Kai (co-founder, departed February 2026) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: AI-powered ecommerce marketing (email & SMS) - **Target customers**: B2B, enterprise ecommerce brands (e.g., J.Jill, Fabletics, Sur La Table, Backcountry, One Kings Lane) - **Mission or purpose**: “Redefining brand growth with AI” – helping ecommerce brands turn one-time buyers into loyal repeat customers through autonomous, personalized campaigns. ## Products & Services - **[LTV AI Platform](https://ltv.ai/)**: Autonomous email and SMS marketing platform.
