As a Recruiter, you will own full-cycle hiring across multiple functions with particular focus on the Operations organization. You'll partner directly with General Managers to identify and recruit high-performing operators who work with leading AI labs. This is a foundational 0→1 recruiting motion with the opportunity to establish best-in-class talent acquisition infrastructure.
Key responsibilities include: sourcing and closing candidates across marketing, finance, people ops, and operations; mapping hiring needs and implementing process improvements; building top-of-funnel through creative outbound and structured screening; coaching hiring managers on interview best practices and decision hygiene; operationalizing hiring systems and tracking key metrics (pass-through rates, time-in-stage, source yield); driving speed and quality with same-day debriefs and fast offers; building employer brand through campaigns, referrals, and events; representing Mercor externally to competitive talent markets; and collaborating on recruiting dashboards and process automation in Ashby.
You should have full-cycle recruiting experience across individual contributor and leadership roles, proven ability to build and scale hiring systems with data-driven decision-making, and strong communication skills. Familiarity with GTM, Strategy, and Operations roles is essential, with some technical recruiting expertise (SWEs, FDEs) preferred. Nice-to-haves include founding recruiter experience, interest in human data/AGI space, and technical recruiting background. The ideal candidate combines agility, operational rigor, growth mindset, outcome commitment, and genuine passion for building world-class talent acquisition processes.
Mercor operates in-person five days per week from San Francisco, NYC, or London offices. The company is profitable and growing rapidly, with hiring viewed as a key strategic driver.
