Recruiting Operations

As our first Recruiting Operations hire at Candid, you’ll work side-by-side with our Head of People and partner closely with leaders across recruiting, finance, and the broader business to build the infrastructure that powers our hiring engine. Our team has more than doubled (to ~200) in the past year, and we expect to replicate that growth this year and next. Your work will directly unlock that growth.

This is a high-impact role for someone who loves bringing structure to complexity, who thrives building systems that unblock scale, and who wants to own critical bottlenecks in a lean, fast-moving environment.

• →

• 4+ years of recruiting operations or adjacent experience in a scaling environment.

• High-slope operator who’s built for scale: you’ve done this in fast-growing environments, and you’ve watched systems break under growth. You can see around corners and build infrastructure that holds up at the next inflection.

• Systems thinker who is comfortable moving between strategy and execution. You can zoom out to design the right operating model, then dive in to make it real.

• Strong self-advocate, confident operating with autonomy and influence. You can push for better ways of working even with stakeholders who have strong opinions.

• Exceptionally detail-oriented. You catch things others miss and treat data hygiene as an active discipline.

• Highly structured, for yourself and others. You impose rigor on your own work AND help others structure theirs.

• Experienced with modern recruiting systems and tools; familiarity with platforms like Ashby, Greenhouse, or Lever is a plus.

• Impact-driven: you’re excited not just to keep the machine running, but to improve the machine itself.

• Excited by high-growth environments, ambiguous problem spaces, and the opportunity to build the infrastructure behind a world-class recruiting function.
