Job description

Who We Are

Serval is an AI-native automation platform transforming how enterprises operate. We build intelligent agents that understand real-world workflows and execute them end-to-end—replacing manual processes and rigid legacy systems with adaptive, learning software. Founded in early 2024, Serval is already trusted by companies like Fox, Notion, Perplexity, Vercel, and Brex to automate high-volume, high-friction operational work across their organizations.

At the core of Serval is an agentic AI platform that turns natural language into production-grade workflows. Our agents don’t just respond to requests — they reason, take action across systems, and continuously improve with usage. What began with operational use cases has quickly evolved into a horizontal AI automation layer used across IT, HR, Finance, Security, Legal, and Engineering.

Our mission is to eliminate repetitive, manual work across the enterprise and give teams leverage through intelligent automation. Long term, we’re building the universal AI operations layer — a system of agents that sits across business functions and runs the workflows that keep modern companies moving.

We’re backed by leading investors including Sequoia Capital, Redpoint Ventures, Meritech, First Round, General Catalyst, Elad Gil, and others.

Role Overview

As a Professional Services Recruiter at Serval, you'll build and own the recruiting strategy for our Professional Services organization, starting from scratch. You'll design and execute high-impact hiring initiatives that help Serval stand up a brand-new function, owning a small number of highly consultative searches rather than a high-volume req load.

You’ll partner closely with PS leadership and hiring managers to define what good looks like for this function as we build it, drive outbound sourcing into a specific and narrow candidate market, and create a world-class candidate experience. This role is ideal for someone who’s recruited Professional Services, Solutions Consulting, or Implementation talent in fast-paced SaaS environments and thrives at the intersection of recruiting, judgment, and strategy.

What You’ll Do

• Design and Execute PS Hiring Strategy: Build sourcing plans and run full-cycle recruiting across Implementation Consultant, PS leadership, and specialist delivery roles

• Partner with Leadership: Collaborate with PS hiring managers and the Head of Talent to forecast headcount, define ideal candidate profiles, and prioritize hiring needs as the org takes shape

• Own the Candidate Experience: Deliver an exceptional experience from first touch to offer acceptance, particularly given how senior and consultative the candidate pool is

• Develop Scalable Recruiting Systems: Build the processes, interview loops, and scorecards that don't yet exist for this function, since there's no established PS playbook to inherit

• Drive Outbound Sourcing: Build pipelines from enterprise implementation and delivery talent at companies like ServiceNow, Salesforce, and their ecosystem of delivery partners

• Influence Employer Brand: Partner with Marketing to craft authentic messaging that attracts candidates with real enterprise delivery experience

• Track and Report Metrics: Analyze pipeline velocity, conversion rates, and time-to-hire to improve efficiency and hiring quality

• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Align with Sales and Recruiting peers to ensure consistent bar-raising and a clean handoff at the deal-to-delivery stage

What You’ll Need

• 3+ years of recruiting experience, with direct experience hiring Professional Services, Solutions Consulting, Sales Engineering, Implementation, or Customer Success roles at a B2B SaaS company

• Demonstrated success recruiting for enterprise motions specifically, not high-volume SMB or PLG hiring

• Strong understanding of enterprise SaaS delivery and implementation work, and the ability to assess a candidate's real delivery experience versus a rehearsed story

• Data-driven mindset: adept at using recruiting metrics to inform prioritization and process improvements

• Excellent communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to convey Serval's mission and value proposition to a candidate population that gets pitched constantly

• High agency and adaptability: comfortable building process where none exists, in a fast-moving, early-stage environment

• Based in or willing to work from our San Francisco HQ, 5 days/week.

Nice to Have

• Experience as an early recruiter at a Series A–B startup.

• Familiarity with PS or consulting compensation structures and the competitive landscape

What We Offer

• Impact: Be a key player in shaping the success of our product and company.

• Growth: Build a fundamentally new AI product offering with the support of our experienced team and investors. Grow rapidly with the company.

• Culture: Join a culture that values innovation, ownership, accountability, and fun.
