Job Level
About the role
- Execute End-to-End Searches: Own the entire recruiting lifecycle for technical (Eng, Product) and non-technical (GTM, Policy, G&A) roles, from initial intake to the final "sell."
- Investigative Screening: Conduct rigorous behavioral interviews that go beyond surface-level skills to assess "ACFUEL" values alignment and long-term potential.
- Direct Sourcing: Act as your own headhunter, building high-quality, diverse pipelines through creative outbound strategies to minimize reliance on external agencies.
- Interview Leadership: Advise and influence hiring leaders and interview panelists on best interviewing practices to ensure a consistent, objective, and high-quality candidate experience.
- Closing & Negotiation: Manage complex offer negotiations, including equity education, to ensure high acceptance rates in a competitive climate-tech market.
- Departmental Partnership: Serve as the first point of contact for managers on personnel issues, providing coaching on performance management and team dynamics.
- Retention Strategy: Partner with our People Generalist to design impactful retention programs and strategies based on benchmarks and industry best practices.
- Performance Bar: Support the annual calibration and performance review processes, ensuring feedback is actionable and the performance bar remains uncompromising.
- Peer Mentorship: Provide mentorship and "on-the-job" coaching to our People Generalist, helping them develop the investigative judgment and HRBP skills necessary for their own career growth.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in a high-growth startup environment, with a heavy emphasis on full-cycle recruiting for technical and non-technical roles spanning all levels.
- ATS Pro: You know Ashby, Greenhouse, or another ATS like the back of your hand, and rely heavily on customized workflows and templates.
- Stakeholder-Driven: You listen to and engage your colleagues meaningfully, rather than rushing to check them off a list. You partner with them to accelerate hiring timelines, source the best candidates possible, and jointly bring top talent to WeaveGrid.
- The "Generalist" Toolkit: Proven experience flexing into HRBP or People Ops roles; you understand employment law basics and performance management frameworks.
- Exceptional Judgment: A track record of making high-stakes hiring decisions and the ability to articulate why a candidate is or isn't a fit based on evidence.
- Mission Alignment: A genuine interest in the energy transition and the ability to speak fluently about WeaveGrid’s role in decarbonizing the grid.
- Independence: You are a self-starter who doesn't need a playbook to be successful; you prefer to build the process as you go.
