Responsibilities
Proactively search for outstanding candidates, using whatever channels and approaches are needed to keep pipelines strong and find the best talent
Push hiring managers to clearly define role scope, responsibilities, and success criteria before hiring begins; act as the forcing function that prevents poorly scoped roles from launching and ensuring role scoping and calibrations get done on time
Translate role requirements into structured interview plans, including interview stages, interviewer assignments, and suggested questions to assess defined attributes
Serve as the primary point of contact for candidates from first conversation through decision, building trust, clearly representing Prosper, and keeping strong candidates engaged throughout the process
Own the setup, accuracy, and day-to-day operation of our ATS (Greenhouse). Coordinate interviews, manage candidate communication, and drive timely debriefs so decisions are made quickly and the hiring process stays organized and moving
Track metrics and examine role funnels to understand where bottlenecks are; suggest and drive targeted changes that unblock progress and improve hiring outcomes
Qualification
Required
~7–10+ years of experience in recruiting or adjacent operator roles, with hands-on ownership of sourcing, screening, and running hiring end to end
Strong judgment and confidence to push back on hiring managers and the CEO around role scope, quality, and process, while staying deeply hands-on with sourcing, screening, and managing hiring processes
Think from first principles about hiring: able to break down vague role definitions, surface missing decisions, and evaluate candidates based on real signal rather than pedigree or 'best practices'
Have a track record of finding and winning strong candidates when it's hard, getting creative when standard channels fail, and doing whatever it takes to build real pipeline
Build genuine rapport with candidates and serve as a credible, compelling first touchpoint
Highly organized and operationally rigorous, able to own systems and processes end to end, keep things clean, and spot breakdowns before they slow hiring
Have experience operating on very small or early-stage recruiting teams and understand what it takes to own hiring without layers of support
