Paraform powers the next generation of recruiting firms — helping top recruiters build six- and seven-figure businesses and hire for companies like Rippling, Decagon, and Hightouch. We treat recruiters like entrepreneurs, not vendors, and we build the infrastructure that powers their success. The Role: This is the operational and sourcing engine behind our most critical hires. You'll carry pipelines across engineering, product, design, business operations, and GTM — finding the people who'll thrive in a fast-moving, collaborative environment, then making sure every step after that runs clean. This is also a unique seat with outsized product impact: you'll be the primary user of the Paraform platform itself. We've scaled to 120+ headcount by dogfooding Paraform, leveraging specialized recruiter networks to source elite talent — and you'll be right in the middle of that loop, working directly with our co-founders, leadership, and our engineering and product teams to shape the platform based on what you actually need day to day. You'll also be highly visible — often the first team member candidates interact with, which makes you a direct extension of our brand. We're looking for someone who gets our culture, cares about strong organization, and wants to help us hit ambitious recruiting goals. ## What you'll do - Source across the board. Go deep on engineering, product, design, business operations, GTM, and more — building pipelines for critical roles. - Write outreach that gets replies. Create messaging sharp enough to move passive candidates who weren't looking. - Own the machinery. Run interview scheduling and coordination so nothing slips and no candidate is left wondering what's next. - Keep the data clean. Maintain accurate, current pipelines in Ashby and Paraform. - Build with AI. Experiment with AI-driven workflows that make sourcing and operations faster for the whole team. ## What we're looking for - 2+ years in talent sourcing and/or recruiting operations, with a real track record on hard-to-fill roles across multiple functions. - Sourcing chops. Fluent with sourcing tools and platforms. - Sharp written communication — your outreach is the kind people actually respond to. - Comfortability with fragmented systems and the ability to build scalable processes. - Thrives in ambiguity. Priorities shift fast here, and you can ruthlessly prioritize and work autonomously. ## Why you'll love it - Own real pipelines. Your sourcing work directly shapes who joins the company. - Shape the product you use. As Paraform's own primary user, your feedback goes straight to the people building it. - Work on both sides of hiring. Prospect top talent and build the operations that support acquisition. ## ABOUT PARAFORM: Paraform is a marketplace modernizing one of the largest and most fragmented markets in the world: hiring. We partner with industry leaders like Decagon, Palantir, Rippling, Abridge, and Hightouch to hire world-class talent, and are growing quickly - 8×-ing revenue last year. Paraform is the first end-to-end AI recruiting marketplace that connects companies with thousands of specialized recruiters and AI agents that work together to fill roles faster and more accurately. Our mission is to make hiring fast, reliable, and scalable for every company in the world. At Paraform, we believe recruiting works best when the right people are working on the right problems, combining human judgment with AI that truly understands hiring. That’s why we’re building a new foundation for how companies hire, bringing together specialized recruiters and modern AI tools. We treat recruiters like entrepreneurs, not vendors – and we’re building the financial, operational, and technical infrastructure that powers their success. We are backed by the best investors and technology leaders: Scale, Felicis, A*, BOND, Liquid 2, DST Global, the founders of YouTube, Instacart, Canva, and more. ## About Paraform ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Paraform is an Agentic Hiring Platform where expert recruiters and custom AI agents collaborate to help companies fill critical roles faster and more accurately. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B – $65M total funding) - **Headquarters**: San Francisco, CA, USA - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: John and Jeff (co-founders; full names not publicly disclosed) ## Core Business - **Primary industries**: Internet Marketplace Platforms, Talent Acquisition, HR Technology - **Target customers**: B2B – high-growth startups to category-leading enterprises (e.g., Palantir, Rippling, Abridge, Decagon, Cognition, Thomson Reuters); also serves SMB and mid-market companies - **Mission**: “Building the talent infrastructure of the 22nd century” – making hiring exceptional talent as easy as pressing a button. ## Products & Services - **Agentic Hiring Platform**: Combines a marketplace of specialized expert recruiters with proprietary AI agents that learn from hiring outcomes to surface and match the best candidates.
