Role overview

What You'll Do

Own full-cycle recruitment — sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offers, and close — for open roles across Sales, Payments, Customer Success, Product, and beyond.
Build and continuously maintain a warm, proactive pipeline of Sales talent, so we're ready to move on exceptional candidates even when every seat is filled.
Partner closely with hiring managers and the VP of People to shape role requirements, interview plans, and hiring criteria before a search even begins.
Own the candidate experience end to end — timely communication, clear feedback, and a process that reflects well on Klir at every stage.
Track and report on recruitment KPIs — time-to-fill, cost-per-hire, funnel conversion, and pipeline health — and use them to keep improving how we hire.
Own our ATS, job postings, and recruitment documentation, keeping our process clean, current, and audit-ready.
Manage relationships with external recruitment agencies where we still use them, with a clear goal of reducing that reliance over time through direct sourcing.
Flex into interview panels for select roles, supporting hiring managers and lightening their load.
Move quickly when surge hiring needs come up — a new product line or a scale-up in an existing one — without missing a beat on quality.

What You'll Bring

Experience

A track record of success recruiting inside a startup or high-growth tech environment — you know the pace, the ambiguity, and the energy that comes with scaling, and you thrive in it.
Demonstrated success sourcing and hiring Sales and technical talent specifically.
Experience recruiting across North American markets, including both the US and Canada.
A track record of owning recruitment KPIs — time-to-fill, cost-per-hire, pipeline metrics — and reporting on them with real numbers, not just a sense of how things are going.
Comfort with modern sourcing and ATS tools (e.g. LinkedIn Recruiter).
Demonstrable use of AI to move faster and work smarter.

Competencies

Grit and determination — the best hires rarely come easily, and this role rewards persistence.
Agility, and genuine comfort navigating ambiguity — our priorities move fast, and so should you.
Curiosity — about people, about roles, about what makes someone the right fit, not just a qualified one.
Strong partnership and internal communication skills — you'll work closely with hiring managers and leaders across the company, not just candidates.
Strong alignment with Klir Company Values.
