Role
Who you are
- If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love chasing needle-in-a-haystack talent, and can craft a compelling story about our mission, this seat is yours
- 5+ years of recruiting experience, including 2+ years focused on deeply technical roles (hardware, software, or aerospace/defense strongly preferred)
- Demonstrated ability to independently close hard-to-fill roles in competitive markets
- Strong sourcing fundamentals and fluency in modern recruiting tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, Lever, ATS systems, etc.)
- Compelling storyteller - can frame AnySignal’s mission, team, and impact in ways that land with technical candidates
- Excellent communicator - writes crisp outreach, runs structured calls, and navigates offer conversations with confidence
- Thrives in ambiguity - can build from scratch, iterate fast, and stay scrappy when needed
- U.S. Person per ITAR requirements
Desirable
- Prior experience in a high-growth startup or new-space environment
- Exposure to HR functions beyond recruiting (onboarding, performance reviews, compliance, etc.)
- Background recruiting for space, defense, or other hard-tech industries
What the job involves
- Our team has a diverse range of backgrounds that cover cloud computing to artificial intelligence, communications and sensing, embedded systems, and much more
- We are seeking a Lead Recruiter where you’ll be the architect and executor of our talent strategy
- You’ll own the entire hiring lifecycle: generating top-of-funnel activity, personally sourcing and nurturing candidates, guiding hiring managers through the process, and closing top-tier talent in competitive markets
- You’ll also oversee onboarding, offboarding, and help shape our People org as we scale
- Full-Cycle Hiring Ownership: Build and run the end-to-end recruitment process for technical and non-technical roles. From outbound sourcing and screening to offer negotiation and onboarding - you are the engine behind every great hire
- Creative Outbound Strategy: Design and execute outbound search tactics for niche technical talent. Use novel channels, campaigns, and pitch strategies to find and attract candidates who aren’t looking - yet
- Candidate Experience: Drive a high-touch, high-trust process that gives candidates confidence in our mission and excitement about our team. Every interaction should reflect the culture we’re building
- Hiring Team Partner: Coach and align with hiring managers to shape role definitions, interview loops, and evaluation rubrics. Run debriefs, drive alignment, and ensure every team member is trained to assess fairly and rigorously
- Onboarding & Offboarding: Own and refine systems that make day one seamless and day last respectful. You’ll build processes to set new hires up for success and help team members offboard with grace
- Recruiter Management: Manage external recruiters, agencies, and internal recruiting support staff when needed. Set clear expectations, provide feedback, and track output to ensure high ROI
- Future People Leader: Lay the foundation for broader People & Talent initiatives. As the company grows, you’ll help stand up functions like professional development, compliance, and HR operations
Our take
Founded by former SpaceX engineers, AnySignal is tackling the priciness and lack of end-to-end capabilities inherent within existing aerospace radio frequency capabilities. Building radiofrequency technology solutions for space stations, satellites, and advanced aircraft, AnySignal’s mission is to enhance and redefine the RF domain for military and commercial purposes.
AnySignal is entering the radio frequency tech market at a time when the need is as high as it has ever been. Space missions, satellite capabilities, and advanced aircraft companies are currently engaged in a race to the top. AnySignal could be a key player in this role and has already enjoyed an oversubscribed seed funding round despite only being founded in 2022.
Evidencing its great timing to the market, AnySignal is using its funding to sort through a large customer backlog - growing its production, employee, and R&D capacity. If it can successfully scale to meet demand, there is no doubt AnySignal will soar sky-high.
