About the role

  • Lead end-to-end talent acquisition across engineering, AI/ML, platform, strategy, and operations, ensuring we attract and hire the caliber of people who elevate AZX’s impact, credibility, and market position.
  • Architect sourcing strategies for scarce, high-leverage talent in AI, energy, climate, and infrastructure, building repeatable systems that compound over time, maintain a durable pipeline of future-ready candidates, and leverage data-driven approaches rather than one-off efforts.
  • Strengthen AZX’s talent brand and market presence by translating our mission, point of view, and differentiated way of working into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with senior operators, builders, and technical leaders in the market.
  • Serve as a visible ambassador for AZX in the talent ecosystem, building relationships with top-tier candidates, advisors, and networks, and representing the company with credibility, clarity, and conviction in external conversations.
  • Manage and optimize relationships with third-party recruiting partners for senior and hard-to-fill roles, ensuring alignment with AZX’s standards, culture, pace, and long-term talent strategy.
  • Champion a world-class candidate experience that reflects AZX’s mission, values, and bias toward action, reinforcing our reputation as a place where serious builders do meaningful, high-impact work.
  • Design, operationalize, and continuously refine a structured interview and evaluation process that raises hiring quality, reduces bias, and scales with the company as our visibility and inbound interest increase.
  • Partner directly with founders and functional leaders to define roles, craft success profiles, and articulate what excellence looks like for each hire, aligning internal expectations with how AZX shows up in the market.
  • Model and reinforce AZX cultural principles: humility, mission-focus, clarity, speed, and zero inflated bureaucracy
  • Contribute to an environment where teams collaborate well, communicate openly, and do exceptional work.
