## Job description

## About Corvus

Every physical good spends time in a warehouse, and every warehouse tracks their inventory. Today, nearly 100% of warehouses track their inventory manually using barcode scanners and climbing forklifts. We're [Corvus Robotics](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/). Our fully autonomous [Corvus One](https://blog.corvus-robotics.com/corvus-one-launch-and-series-a-funding)™ drones use computer vision & robotics to automatically track inventory, improving worker safety and increasing labor efficiency. We believe that data-driven, safe inventory management will optimize the global physical economy and improve economic prosperity for humanity.

## What we're seeking

We are looking for a highly skilled and strategic Head of Talent to join our fast-paced, mission-driven team. You will be instrumental in scaling Corvus Robotics by building out our talent acquisition process and bringing in top-tier candidates across a variety of roles. We need a partner who is excited to help shape the future of our hiring program and is committed to delivering exceptional candidate experiences. Specifically, in this role you will:

- Lead recruiting across various roles in a high-growth startup by running scalable operational processes, including scheduling, metrics, and pipeline management.
- Be the partner to Hiring Managers for identifying ideal candidate profiles for different roles, and source challenging-to-fill positions.
- Iterate on a robust recruiting process over the course of interviews and learnings from candidates, focusing on quality and speed.
- Keep to very high standards for candidates for each role, while creating a positive candidate experience.

Must have

- 2-5 YOE recruiting in a high-growth company, across a diverse breadth of roles (beyond engineering or GTM)
- Demonstrated ability for running repeatable processes and systems for recruiting, including using ATS, AI e.g. for sourcing or responses, and other software tools
- Demonstrated ability to source and run outreach campaigns (at least with napkin numbers and metrics), across different levels of experiences and backgrounds, including non-conventional methods
- Strong hands-on experience with recruiting operations, including scheduling, pipeline tracking, and offer generation (bonus if with a lightweight ATS)
- Ability to develop hiring criteria based on a strong set of recruiting values, while also creating a positive candidate experience

## Nice to have

- Experience working in robotics, deeptech, or supply chain automation
- Track record of creative problem-solving in the talent acquisition process for challenging-to-fill roles
- Experience working at an early-stage startup or joining a tech company early in its growth phase

## About Corvus Robotics

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Corvus Robotics provides an autonomous inventory intelligence platform for Fortune 500 and Global 2000 warehouses, using drones and AI copilots to automate cycle counting and material handling operations.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series unknown; backed by Y Combinator, S2G Ventures, Catalyst Investors, Spero Ventures, and Tesla’s cofounder)
- **Headquarters**: Mountain View, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2017
- **Founders**: Jackie Wu (CEO & Founder) and Kabir Mohammed (CTO & Co-Founder)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Industrial robotics / Warehouse automation / Supply chain intelligence
- **Target customers**: B2B — large enterprise (Fortune 500, Global 2000) operators of distribution centers, cold chain/freezer warehouses, and complex material handling facilities
- **Mission/purpose**: “Autonomous inventory intelligence for the physical economy” — the company exists to impact the physical economy of plants, manufacturers, distributors, and retailers, driving global economic growth by improving the supply chain.

## Products & Services
- **Corvus One®**: A fully autonomous warehouse inventory drone that flies without a pilot, stickers, or beacons, using onboard cameras for real-time scanning. Designed for cycle counting in ambient, cold chain, and freezer environments. Deployed in under one week on-site.
- **Corvus Trident™**: An AI Copilot installed on forklifts and other material handling equipment that tracks all pallet moves in real time, giving operators and managers instant visibility into inventory location changes.
- **Unified Operations Platform**: A single dashboard that aggregates data from Corvus One, Trident, and any existing WMS via API, providing one source of inventory truth and discrepancy alerts. Runs on-premise for enterprise data security.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Funding**: Not publicly disclosed. Institutional backers include Y Combinator, S2G Ventures, Catalyst Investors, Spero Ventures, and Tesla co-founder (implied via the company page). Also backed by executives from Amazon’s Kiva Systems.
- **Key Metric**: 300+ devices deployed across North America; 30 enterprise customers served; 26 U.S. states and territories with active deployments.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: S2G Ventures, Catalyst Investors, Spero Ventures, Y Combinator. Investors include leaders from Amazon Kiva Systems and Tesla.
- **Growth Signals**:
  - 9 distribution centers deployed with measurable results (some customers report 6x labor hours saved, recovery of $1.25M in lost inventory, reallocation of 35,000+ hours, and elimination of manual cycle counting across nine sites)
  - Launch of Corvus Trident AI Copilot (recent product expansion)
  - Appointment of Michael McSpedon as CRO (former 3x CRO who took companies to $100M+ revenue)
  - Strong headcount growth: actively hiring for multiple engineering, deployment, and assembly roles

## Competitive Advantages
- **Full autonomy**: Corvus One operates with no pilot, no stickers, no beacons — truly “lights out” warehouse autonomous flights.
- **Cold chain specialization**: Drones are purpose-built for freezer/cold storage environments where many competitors cannot operate.
- **On-prem data security**: Enterprise data stays on-premise, addressing compliance and security concerns of large logistics operators.
- **Dual product ecosystem**: Combining aerial drones (Corvus One) with forklift-mounted AI (Trident) covers both storage and movement visibility, creating a unified layer above the WMS.
- **Fast deployment**: “1 week on-site deployment” for most sites, supported by dedicated CS & implementation engineers.

## Strategic Focus
- **Physical AI expansion**: Extending from inventory counting to full material handling automation across all warehouse form factors.
- **Enterprise scaling**: Growing footprint within existing Global 2000 customer accounts and onboarding new Fortune 500 sites.
- **Product-line expansion**: Recent launch of Trident indicates a move into real-time pallet tracking and forklift-adjacent AI.
- **Geographic coverage**: Scaling deployments across North America (already in 26 states/territories) with a “built, deployed, and supported in the US” value proposition.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Mission-driven team focused on solving “some of the hardest problems” in robotics and AI with a pragmatic, direct communication style. Core values include “Whatever it takes,” “Be a good person,” and “Do work you’re proud of.”
- **Work policy**: Hybrid/onsite presence in Mountain View, CA (Bay Area). Some roles (like Assembly Technician and Hardware roles) require on-site work; software roles may have flexible hybrid schedules as noted by team testimonials.
- **Notable perks/culture highlights**:
  - High-density engineering talent — founders and CTO come from MIT and Northwestern robotics programs
  - Real-world impact: Employees work directly with customers to see robots in action in warehouses
  - “Cutting-edge innovation” in computer vision, robotics, and AI
  - Strong team culture described by current engineers as welcoming, collaborative, and focused on impactful work
  - Open to extraordinary talent: Career page explicitly invites candidates who don’t fit a job description to email career@corvus-robotics.com
- **Current open roles** (as of late 2024/2025): Robotics Software Engineer, Robotics Deployment Manager, Production Lead, Assembly Technician, Head of Marketing, and other specialized roles — signaling strong operational scaling.
