Talent Acquisition Lead, Engineering
"This is the most exciting time in history to build." — Sam Altman
We're building the company that will redefine email with applied AI. We grew from $1M to $30M ARR last year with a technical team of 12. We're forecasting $100M ARR by the end of 2026.
There will be a $10B+ company in this space.
It will be us if we stay focused.
What we're building
We are solving the biggest problem in modern work: email.
Not by bolting AI onto a SaaS tool — but by being a pure-play applied AI company.
We build AI-generated email drafts that get better over time using context from meetings, inbox, and messages. Today, 53% of the drafts we generate are sent.
Focus creates great products. We are relentlessly focused.
The role
This is not a traditional TA role.
You are the person who ensures that as Fyxer scales from 20 to 50+ engineers, every single hire raises the bar. You will own engineering recruitment end-to-end — partnering directly with the CTO to find, attract, and close the exceptional people who will define what we build next.
Your job is simple to describe and incredibly hard to do:
"Build the highest-performing engineering team in Europe, one hire at a time."
What "great" looks like here
Every engineering role is filled with someone who visibly raises the bar
Candidates have a world-class experience — whether they get an offer or not
The hiring funnel is clean, fast, and never a bottleneck to growth
Hiring managers trust you completely and never have to chase
You know the engineering talent market better than anyone in the building
The CTO and VP Eng never have to think about how recruiting is running
What you'll do
Own Engineering Hiring
Run end-to-end recruitment across Platform, Product & Growth Engineering, Data, ML/AI.
Source exceptional candidates — proactively, creatively, and continuously
Build and manage a high-quality pipeline at all times, not just when roles open
Partner with hiring managers to define roles, craft briefs, and sharpen assessment criteria
Raise the Bar on Process
Design and maintain a hiring process that is rigorous, fast, and candidate-friendly
Ensure every interview loop is structured, calibrated, and decisive
Track and report on funnel metrics — time to hire, offer acceptance, source quality
Continuously improve based on data and feedback
Partner the Leadership Team
Work directly with the CTO Co-Founder and VP Engineering on headcount planning
Give honest, data-driven views on the market — salaries, timelines, candidate availability
Be a thought partner, not just an executor
What we're looking for
You likely:
Have 4+ years in technical recruiting, with a strong track record hiring software engineers, ML engineers, or data engineers
Have operated inside a high-growth startup — you know what urgency and quality both feel like
Are an exceptional sourcer — you don't wait for inbound, you go and find the best people
Can hold your own in a conversation with an engineer — you understand what they do and what they care about
Are highly organised, data-driven, and able to manage multiple roles simultaneously without dropping the ball
Care obsessively about candidate experience — you know every touchpoint is a signal
Are direct, honest, and able to push back on hiring managers when needed
