About LoftLabs

We are a venture-backed tech startup striving to be the leading force in enabling platform engineers. We raised +$30M from top tier VCs such as Khosla Ventures (first investor in OpenAI, GitLab, Stripe, Doordash) and are in a hyper-growth phase looking for motivated people to complement our team. Our headquarters are in San Francisco (Salesforce Tower) but our team is distributed around the globe and we have a remote-first work culture.

We're the company behind vCluster, an open-source technology for virtualizing Kubernetes (+10k GitHub stars). Open source is part of our DNA.

The adoption of our commercial product based on vCluster has grown extremely fast (multi-million dollar revenue) and our customer base includes some of the biggest companies in the world, including 6 Global Fortune 500 companies as well as some of the fastest-growing tech unicorns.

Responsibilities

We are looking for a Recruiting & People Operations Manager to lead our hiring efforts while also supporting general HR functions.

• Own and manage the full-cycle recruiting process across roles and departments (sourcing, conducting & organizing interviews, offer discussion, onboarding).
• Source candidates actively through LinkedIn, referrals, etc.
• Review applications and manage the interview process in the ATS, ensuring a positive candidate experience.
• Conducting initial screening interviews with applicants, making sure they meet our requirements, and match our company culture.
• Manage and continuously improve the onboarding process for new hires.
• Oversee and structure internal people management processes (performance reviews, employee surveys, benefits management, time-off management)
• Act as a key point of contact for HR inquiries.
• Help define and standardize HR policies, internal documentation, and workflows.
  
  

Requirements

• Extensive experience in recruiting and HR/People Operations in a fast-growing software startup.
• Proven track record of managing the full-cycle recruiting process for various roles, from deeply technical roles to go-to-market teams.
• Familiarity with international (EOR) and US employment practices.
• Experience working with ATS and HRIS, preferably Ashby and Rippling, and other modern tools, such as Slack, Google Suite, ChatGPT, and Notion.
• Flexibility to conduct interviews with candidates in different time zones (from Eastern Europe to US West).
• Talent to organize and set up processes with a strong attention to detail.
• Ability to work on multiple topics in parallel.
• High emotional intelligence, discretion, and trustworthiness.
• Excellent communication skills and a passion to create a positive experience for applicants and employees.
  
  

Note: We are looking for a full-time hire and are not interested in recruiting agency outreach.

Benefits

We offer the following benefits:

• Competitive Salary: We offer a competitive compensation package, including equity.
• Platinum-Level Insurance: Health, dental, vision, and life Insurance, including plans for you and eligible dependents (benefits vary depending on country).
• Flexible Working Schedule: You have a doctor’s appointment or need to head to the supermarket to get groceries at 2pm? We won’t have an issue with that. To us, results matter more than clocking in and out at the same time every day.
• Workplace Flexibility: We’re very flexible about where you work. We know things can change in life and we’re happy to adjust the work environment for you along the way.
