The role

We're hiring a Talent Acquisition Associate to own end-to-end hiring across the company. This is a high-ownership, high-variety role, not a narrow recruiting function.

  • Coordinate interviews and assessments with internal stakeholders.
  • Track pipeline status and maintain hiring trackers/spreadsheets.
  • Support onboarding coordination for new hires.
  • Take on ad hoc ops and GTM tasks as they come up. This role is dynamic and will expand based on what the business needs.

What we're looking for

What you get:

  • Direct exposure to founding team, GTM, and ops functions at a fast-growing Al company.
  • Full autonomy and decision-making as you build trust and prove yourself.
  • Real ownership from day one, not a shadow/assist role.
  • A clear path to eventually owning all of Talent Acquisition for Arctic Engines.
  • Steep learning curve across recruiting, ops, and GTM in your first year.
  • Clear path to full-time offer (PPO) based on performance over the 6-month period.
