Company mission
To democratize access to amazing investment products and experiences via a world-class investment manager that serves everyday investors.
Role
Who you are
- Full-Cycle Ownership → 5+ years of full-cycle in-house recruiting experience, with demonstrated ability to run searches independently from kick-off to close
- Technical Recruiting Chops → You've recruited for Engineering, Product, and/or Design roles. You can hold a real conversation with a hiring manager about tech stacks, system design, and what makes an exceptional engineer
- Hands-On Sourcer → Deep familiarity with Boolean logic, LinkedIn Recruiter, and non-traditional sourcing channels. You know how to find people who aren't looking
- High-Velocity Execution → Proven ability to manage multiple open searches simultaneously without sacrificing quality, candidate experience, or your own sanity
- Builder Mentality → You've built recruiting processes from scratch, or significantly improved broken ones. You don't wait to be handed a playbook
- Closer → You have a track record of winning competitive searches. You know how to read a candidate and bring them home
- Data-Driven → You track what matters and use it to make better decisions. You can benchmark comp, report on pipeline health, and make a clear case to leadership
- Startup Experience → You've thrived in a fast-moving, resource-constrained environment. Ideally you've been the first or only recruiter at a high-growth tech company
What the job involves
- The Head of Talent is the most important hire Titan makes this year. Your mission is to own everything talent from the first outreach message to the signed offer letter, across every function we hire for: Engineering, Product, Design, Marketing, Advisory, and anything else that comes up
- This isn't a "manage the function" role. You will be in the work, every day
- You'll operate as both architect and operator: building the systems, processes, and pipelines that fuel Titan's growth while personally running full-cycle searches across all open roles
- You have the instincts of a seasoned recruiter, the strategic clarity of a talent leader, and the scrappiness of someone who's never needed a team beneath them to get great work done
- Own Titan's entire talent function: strategy, process, execution, and candidate experience
- Partner with the CEO and every hiring manager across the company to define what great looks like, then go find it
- Establish a recruiting culture defined by speed, rigor, and genuine care for candidates
- Be the player and the coach
- Run full-cycle recruitment across all functions
- Source elite passive talent through creative, multi-channel tactics: LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, technical communities, sourcing platforms, and your own network
- Build and own Titan's recruiting infrastructure: ATS, scorecards, structured interviews, offer templates, and reporting
- Lead compensation benchmarking and structure competitive offers using tools like Pave and Levels.fyi
- Drive the closing process: build real candidate relationships, navigate competing offers, and get to yes
- Track and report on the metrics that matter: time to fill, pipeline health, offer acceptance rate, source of hire, and quality of hire
- Develop Titan's employer brand and candidate-facing presence: job descriptions, LinkedIn, careers page
- Build long-term talent pipelines and relationships across all functions, even when there's no active role
- Manage any external partners or agencies with clear expectations and performance standards
Our take
Titan is an investment management platform designed to help everyday investors, particularly millennials, manage their portfolios with ease and lower capital requirements. The company offers a unique approach to investing by providing access to sophisticated investment strategies traditionally reserved for large investors.
The platform works by analyzing the holdings of large hedge funds and selecting the top 20 stocks based on their performance. Titan then invests users' funds in fractional shares of these stocks, allowing for a diversified portfolio with a starting investment as low as $1,000.
While comparisons to Robinhood are often made, Titan sets itself apart by offering access to both individual stocks and professionally managed portfolios. Beyond just trading, Titan also provides valuable market insights in the form of reports, videos, and notifications, helping users make informed decisions. With millennials increasingly seeking alternatives to traditional financial institutions, Titan's platform has gained significant traction, now managing over $750M in assets.
