Recruiting Lead

Monad Labs is the team building Monad, the performant and parallel EVM Layer-1 blockchain. We are a team of systems engineers and community builders who are on a mission to help crypto eat the world. After recently raising $225M in series A funding, we are growing our team.

The Role

Monad Labs is growing quickly while maintaining an exceptional bar for talent. We are looking for a Recruiting Lead to help us accomplish this. As the third member of our talent team, you will join the team in hiring core engineers with deep low level, systems engineering experience, and various other roles as needed.

What You Will Do

• Manage end-to-end recruiting for various searches (e.g. technical, research, G&A)
• Create and execute sourcing strategies and engagement to bring the best engineering talent
• No job is too big or too small. You will support hiring needs from writing job descriptions, putting together interview plans, scheduling interviews, coordinating travel, coaching new interviewers for the first time, and much more.
• Develop exceptional remote and on-site candidate experiences with organized workflows, prompt decision making, and relationship building
• Track goals, metrics, and performance data of the hiring cycle while regularly communicating updates to hiring stakeholders and the leadership team

Who You Are

• You have a minimum of 7 years of technical recruiting experience in a similar role at a high-growth technology company or startup preferred
• You have a track record hiring senior, low level systems engineers
• You are highly organized and prompt in managing candidate funnels
• You have excellent written and verbal storytelling communication skills
• You have excellent written, communication and interpersonal skills with the proven ability to take initiative and build strong relationships
• You have the ability to find the hard-to-find; you are tireless in sourcing and pursuing the best leads
• You have an interest in the crypto space

Why Work with Us

• Huge opportunity. EVM is ubiquitous but existing EVM-compatible chains are very slow. Monad’s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto.
• The right team. Pushing the performance limits of blockchain requires unique low-latency engineering talent. Our team has nearly ten years of experience staying at the top of brutally efficient high-frequency trading markets.
• Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low egos, and high-quality outputs. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture.
• Impactful work. Your work will be deeply impactful, making decentralized computation orders of magnitude cheaper and more plentiful, ultimately paving the way for new dapps that improve many people’s lives.
• Compensation. You’ll receive a competitive salary and equity package.
