Head of Talent & People

EBAS is partnering again with a hyper–fast-growing Series B startup based in San Francisco. The company grew 8x last year and is on track to grow another 5x this year. It is backed by top-tier investors, including the founders of YouTube, Instacart, and xAI, and serves an exceptional client base including Cursor, Palantir, Shopify, Coinbase, and other industry leaders.

The team is redefining talent acquisition through cutting-edge AI—building technology that has the potential to fundamentally reshape how organizations hire in the 21st century.

This is a rare opportunity to join as the first dedicated Head of Talent , where you will build the recruiting engine and people infrastructure from the ground up while also influencing product direction through your firsthand experience scaling teams.

Why This Role Is Compelling

• Own talent end-to-end across the company spanning engineering, product, GTM, and operations
• Build the entire talent function from the ground up as the founding Head of Talent
• Directly influence product direction by shaping how AI is applied to hiring
• Establish core people programs including onboarding, performance, and compensation

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Operate at true hypergrowth scale with 8x growth achieved and significant expansion ahead
• Partner with world-class investors and founders behind some of the most iconic tech companies
• Drive outsized company impact by scaling headcount and shaping the organization
• Join with strong momentum and capital following a recently raised $65M Series B

What You’ll Work On

• Set hiring strategy with leadership across headcount planning and role definition
• Run full-cycle recruiting across both technical and business functions
• Build innovative talent channels through community, brand, and creative sourcing strategies
• Continuously improve hiring systems to increase speed, signal, and candidate experience

What Sets You Up for Success

• Proven experience in high-growth talent environments with exposure to people operations
• Strong track record in technical recruiting particularly for engineering roles
• Clear point of view on the future of hiring and how talent functions should evolve
• Builder mindset with zero-to-one experience creating scalable recruiting and people systems
