We are hiring on behalf of our client who is a high-growth fintech organization building the onchain broker layer for global markets. Backed by over $27M in funding from premier venture capital firms like General Catalyst and Jump Crypto, the company has processed $50B+ in trading volume and generated significant revenue within the last year. Operating as a lean, high-velocity team, our client is currently scaling its operations to meet the demands of high-volume macro traders.

The organization is seeking a Talent Operator to serve as the first dedicated internal talent hire. This is not a traditional recruiting role; it is a strategic “internal engine” position designed for an individual who views talent acquisition as a complex operational puzzle. Working directly with the founding team, the Talent Operator will build the infrastructure necessary to scale the company toward 200 employees, with a clear trajectory for professional advancement.

Key Responsibilities

• End-to-End Orchestration: Manage the internal hiring machine by liaising with hiring managers to define roles and coordinating with elite external search firms to maintain a robust candidate pipeline
• Founder Partnership: Collaborate closely with the founders to define high hiring bars and ensure a world-class experience for every candidate
• Systems and Data Management: Maintain full ownership of the CRM/ATS, ensuring data integrity, precise tracking of candidate interactions, and timely follow-ups
• Operational Execution: Direct the logistics of high-volume scheduling and interview coordination, ensuring the recruitment process runs with maximum efficiency
• Process Optimization: Identify bottlenecks in the hiring lifecycle and build scalable processes to resolve them

Requirements

• Experience: 0-3 years of professional experience. This role is well-suited for a recent graduate from a top-tier institution or an individual with early-career experience at a venture capital firm, high-growth startup, or specialized recruitment agency
• High Agency: A self-starter who operates with a sense of full ownership, requiring minimal direction to identify opportunities and execute experiments
• Operational Mindset: Exceptional organizational skills with a proven ability to turn chaos into structured, efficient processes
• Passion for Talent: A fundamental belief that human capital is the primary lever for a company’s success
• Preferred Qualifications:
• Familiarity with the crypto/Web3 landscape and the ability to communicate effectively with technical founders and engineers
• Prior experience at a top-tier VC firm or participation in a startup accelerator program (e.g., Y Combinator)
• Previous exposure to high-intensity, high-growth projects in a non-technical capacity (Operations or HR)



Benefits

• Competitive base salary
• Equity package commensurate with a founding-team-level hire
• The opportunity to build the talent foundation of a well-funded, revenue-generating fintech leader
• Direct mentorship from experienced founders and exposure to high-level strategic decision-making
