Eight Sleep is seeking a Talent Acquisition Specialist to own end-to-end recruiting for a portfolio of critical roles across the organization. As the world's first sleep fitness company, Eight Sleep builds advanced hardware, software, and AI technology to optimize human performance through sleep. The company operates in over 30 countries and has been recognized by Fast Company and TIME for innovation.
In this role, you will act as an internal headhunter, proactively sourcing, engaging, and closing top talent rather than relying on inbound applications. You'll own the full-cycle recruiting process for a global portfolio of roles across diverse regions and legal frameworks, leveraging AI and human judgment to reduce time-to-fill. Key responsibilities include identifying and engaging elite talent across multiple channels and university partnerships, building live pipelines before roles officially open, and partnering closely with hiring managers to scope roles, unblock bottlenecks, and drive seamless interview cadence.
You will maintain a high talent bar by assessing candidates rigorously to ensure every hire meets the company's strict standards and culture fit. The role requires a data-driven mindset—you'll create and maintain metrics dashboards tracking hiring process health, pipeline velocity, and conversion rates to keep leadership informed. You'll also continuously optimize recruiting workflows on the ATS (Ashby) to make hiring faster, more scalable, and highly consistent.
Required qualifications include 2–5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally in a high-growth startup, D2C, or tech environment. You should have a proven track record sourcing and closing passive candidates with deep understanding of LinkedIn outreach campaigns that convert. Experience recruiting across multiple functions (marketing, web, mobile) and global regions is essential, as is comfort learning role nuances quickly to excite candidates about the company. You must be a sharp judge of talent and culture fit with strong stakeholder management skills. Experience with modern ATS tools (Ashby preferred) and a metrics-driven approach to pipeline tracking are required. Fluency in English is essential.
Eight Sleep operates with intensity and high standards. The company emphasizes a performance-driven culture where team members are deeply committed and often work 60+ hours per week. The role offers immediate responsibility, accelerated career growth, collaboration with exceptional talent, and equitable compensation including full-time equity participation with periodic refreshments based on performance.
