About the Role
This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-moving, mission-driven robotics company at the ground floor of its people function. As the Founding Lead Recruiter, you'll build the talent and recruiting operation entirely from scratch, own the full candidate lifecycle, and play a direct role in shaping a passionate team working to accelerate the global transition to renewable energy. You'll have meaningful equity and a high-impact seat at the table from day one.
The company develops large-scale robotic systems that automate the most labor-intensive tasks in solar farm construction — a sector experiencing explosive growth and a critical need for the kind of speed and scale only automation can deliver.
What You'll Do
Build the talent function and recruiting processes from the ground up, including workflows, tooling, and metrics
Own the end-to-end recruitment lifecycle — sourcing, screening, interviewing, offer negotiation, and closing
Partner closely with hiring managers and cross-functional stakeholders to define roles, hiring strategies, and timelines
Deliver a standout candidate experience from first touch through offer acceptance
Lead and continuously improve the new-hire onboarding experience
Own employer branding initiatives to attract and close top-tier engineering and technical talent
Scale the recruiting function over time, including hiring, mentoring, and developing additional recruiters
Track and report on recruiting metrics to drive data-informed decisions
What We're Looking For
Required:
Proven experience building an end-to-end recruiting function from scratch at an early-stage startup (Series A or similar), including defining processes and metrics
Experience leading new-hire onboarding programs and owning the initial employee experience
Strong track record partnering with hiring managers and cross-functional teams
Experience scaling a recruiting function or managing a small recruiting team
Ownership of employer branding and candidate experience initiatives, particularly for engineering roles
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment, juggle competing priorities, and iterate quickly
Detail-oriented with strong relationship-management and communication skills
ATS proficiency and familiarity with modern HR/recruiting technologies
Authorization to work in the United States without visa sponsorship (sponsorship is not available)
Willingness to work fully on-site in San Leandro, CA (remote work is not available for this role)
Nice to Have:
Recruiting experience or domain knowledge in robotics, hardware engineering, renewable energy, or the climate/solar industry
Background hiring from companies in the robotics or automation space
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive salary commensurate with experience
Significant equity compensation reflecting your foundational impact on the company
Opportunity for outsized learning, growth, and ownership in a high-velocity environment
Location
This role is fully on-site in San Leandro, California. Remote and hybrid arrangements are not available. Visa sponsorship is not offered.
