• Own end-to-end recruiting across all roles and geographies
• Build and manage a small internal recruiting team
• Individually own recruiting expansions in new geographies or for senior roles
• Manage multiple external recruiting agencies globally and decide on how to work with agencies effectively longer term

• Drive hiring plans tied to headcount goals and budgets
• Maintain hiring quality and cultural alignment as the company scales
