About the role:

We’re looking for a talent leader to build a repeatable, data driven recruiting engine that translates Hex’s culture in a real and tangible way. You’ll start by making our bar something we can actually teach, so every interviewer is holding the same line instead of their own. From there you’ll shape the rest of it: how we find people, what candidates feel going through our process, and the systems and data underneath all of it. In everything you do, you’ll obsess over whether we’re hiring the people who change the trajectory of this company.

Hex is full of people who are smart, a little weird, and impossible to replace with a model. We hire for the out-of-distribution: the people who turn things on their head, who have the idea that sounds implausible right up until it feels inevitable. As a data company, our hiring process should be an advertisement for that, and you’ll have the benefit of using Hex to make it one.

This role reports to our Head of People and is based in San Francisco or New York. We’re in the office at least three days a week, and most of us are there more than that, because we do our best thinking and building together in person. We’re looking for someone who’s genuinely excited to be there alongside the team.
