Job description

TL;DR: We are hiring in Talent to own recruiting end-to-end as we scale. You will work directly with our CEO to hire across engineering, GTM, and operations, with a mandate to further build the team that runs talent at Strala.

Background: Strala is rebuilding the foundation of one of the world’s largest industries - insurance.

In less than a year, we reached multi seven-figure ARR. We raised $55M across two rounds from Tier 1 funds including Peter Thiel's Founders Fund, led by the partner who was early in OpenAI, Cognition and Scale AI. Our team comes from institutions like Harvard, Berkeley & Oxford and firms like Optiver, AMD & Palantir (+ICPC, NeurIPS backgrounds).

Role requirements: Located in or willing to relocate to San Francisco. In-person, five days a week.

You'll Thrive If:

• You operate like a founder - you own outcomes, move fast, and figure it out

• You are closer. Whether through recruiting, sales, or high-stakes persuasion, you've gotten talented people to say yes against real competition.

• You have a high bar for talent and strong opinions on what great looks like - you can spot a .01% candidate in a 15-minute call

• You hunt. You go far beyond inbound through targeted outreach, creative sourcing, and deep network leverage

• You think in systems. You build infrastructure (ATS workflows, sourcing pipelines, scorecards, automations) that compounds over time

• You write well and communicate clearly. Candidates remember talking to you

• Your background is non-obvious. Consulting, banking, operating — if you’ve spent time somewhere that forged elite judgment and hustle, we don’t care that you've never touched an ATS.

What the role entails:

• Own recruiting end-to-end across the entire company: engineering, GTM, claims, and operations. You report directly to our CEO

• Personally source candidates for our most critical roles

• Build out the recruiting function: hire and manage recruiters/sourcers, run agency relationships, define our interview processes

• Operate our recruiting stack (Ashby + sourcing tools + automations) and continuously improve it

• Own employer brand and our presence in the markets we recruit from

Our values:

• Ambition: We want to win, and we need to be the best

• Performance: Speed, system thinking, efficiency

• Ownership: When we see a problem, we take ownership of it, and we solve it

• Spirit: Clarity, optimism, meritocracy

What we offer:

• Impact - Shape a company and redefine an industry. The team you build is the company.

• Intensity - Complex problems, ownership, in-person in SF - we are here to solve problems and win.

• Team - Everyone on our team considers themselves the most competitive person they have ever met - and we all come from the world’s best institutions.

• Zero Barriers - We want the best people and will do whatever it takes. That includes full relocation support, covering all meals and paying for any product that makes you more productive.

• Benefits - All meals covered; comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage; visa support.
