The Opportunity

We’re building at the frontier of crypto—where high-performance systems, distributed infrastructure, and exceptional people come together. Our team spans protocol, infrastructure, product, and business functions, and we’re looking for a world-class recruiter to help us scale thoughtfully across the entire company.

The Role

We’re hiring a Sr. Technical Recruiter to lead full-cycle hiring across engineering and beyond!

This is a highly strategic, high-impact role. You won’t just fill roles—you’ll help shape the company. From deeply technical engineers to business-critical hires, you’ll be responsible for identifying, engaging, and closing exceptional talent across all domains.

What You’ll Do

  • Own end-to-end recruiting across a wide range of roles
  • Partner with founders and functional leaders to define hiring strategy, org design, and headcount planning
  • Build high-quality pipelines for both niche technical roles and business-critical positions
  • Develop creative sourcing strategies to engage passive, high-caliber candidates across multiple disciplines
  • Act as a trusted advisor on talent market dynamics, leveling, and compensation
  • Drive a best-in-class candidate experience—from first touch through close
  • Establish scalable recruiting processes, tools, and best practice

Who You Are

  • 5-10 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with a mix of technical and non-technical hiring including global hiring across multiple regions and markets
  • Proven ability to hire across the stack and across functions (Rust engineers to BD leads)
  • Strong understanding of technical roles (systems, infra, backend) with the ability to assess talent depth
  • Equally comfortable hiring for business roles
  • Exceptional sourcing skills—especially for passive and hard-to-reach candidates
  • Strong closer with a track record of landing high-caliber, competitive talent
  • High ownership and autonomy—you operate like a builder, not a coordinator
  • Excellent judgment and instincts for talent, culture, and long-term fit
  • Experience in high-growth startups or zero-to-one environments

Nice to Have

  • Experience recruiting in crypto, blockchain, or adjacent technical domains
  • Familiarity with highly technical profiles (e.g., Rust, C++, distributed systems, cryptography)
  • Experience building recruiting infrastructure or being the first/early recruiting hire
  • Existing network across both engineering and business talent pools

Benefits

  • Above market compensation and multiple forms of equity
  • 100% of employee health benefits covered by employer
  • All-expenses-paid team retreats and conferences
  • Generous PTO
  • Weekly meal voucher
