[Hiring] Talent Partner @Pogo Technologies, Inc.

Role Description

We’re hiring our first Talent Partner to help us build an exceptional team and the foundations of our People function as Pogo scales. You’ll own recruiting across the company, running searches end-to-end across engineering, design, GTM, and other business functions. As hiring needs ebb and flow, you’ll also take ownership of the People programs and systems that support the broader team. This is a great fit for someone who loves recruiting but also wants to broaden into People Ops and learn how to build a People function at a startup.

• Own full-cycle recruiting across all functions.
• Partner with hiring managers to define roles, ideal candidate profiles, and interview processes.
• Build sourcing strategies with our in-house sourcer and develop pipelines for recurring roles.
• Conduct initial interviews, manage the candidate experience, and drive searches from first conversation through offer and close.
• Build and improve the recruiting systems, workflows, and metrics we need as the company grows.
• Own key People programs, including onboarding, performance reviews, employee experience, offsites, and internal HR policies.
• Over time, help build programs like co-ops/internships, new grad recruiting, employee referrals, and other long-term talent pipelines.

Qualifications

• You have 3–5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally at a fast-growing startup or similarly high-ownership environment.
• You’ve recruited across multiple functions and are comfortable moving between engineering, design, GTM, and other business roles.
• You’re excited by the opportunity to help build a People function from an early stage and grow your scope over time.
• You have strong judgment about people and can quickly learn what “great” looks like in an unfamiliar function.
• You’re a strong communicator who can represent Pogo well to candidates and partner effectively with hiring managers.
• You’re highly organized and comfortable building systems where none exist.

Requirements

• Bonus: You’ve been an early Talent hire at a startup before and have built recruiting or People systems and processes from scratch.
• You enjoy building systems with AI.

Benefits

• Build the People function from the ground up.
• Recruit across the entire company.
• Grow beyond recruiting.
• Work directly with the people building the company.

Why you might not be excited about us

• Priorities may shift quickly.
• This is an individual contributor role.
• We expect more than 9 to 5.
