Generalist Recruiter

Second Front Systems is looking for a metric-driven, high-agency, detail-obsessed Generalist Recruiter to strengthen our talent acquisition function across engineering, ops, growth, mission success, and sales. This role is a full time remote position. The Recruiter will be responsible for full-cycle recruiting, sourcing passive talent, managing concurrent pipelines in Ashby, and partnering with hiring managers across functions. The base salary for this position will fall between $100,000 and $115,000.

Responsibilities

Source high-signal candidates across Engineering, Ops, Growth, Mission Success, and Sales through LinkedIn Recruiter, referrals, and passive outreach; Govern 8–15 concurrent requisitions end-to-end from intake through offer close, preventing pipeline stagnation on any single req; Synchronize with hiring managers across functions to define role requirements, calibrate candidate standards, and maintain tight feedback loops; Architect Ashby as your system of record, keeping pipelines, stages, and candidate data clean and current; Orchestrate candidate experience that holds top talent engaged through every interview round and maintains responsiveness; Mitigate cultural misalignment by representing 2F's mission authentically at every candidate touchpoint from initial outreach through final offer; Assess hiring manager specs into sourcing Boolean and screening rubrics, catching over-specification early and pushing back on unrealistic timelines before pipeline risk compounds; Synchronize feedback loops across concurrent searches — consolidating hiring manager input, candidate signals, and market intelligence into weekly pipeline decisions that keep offers moving and prevent late-stage drop-off

Requirements

Candidates must reside in one of approved hiring hubs (DC/Maryland/Virginia, Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill NC, Denver/Colorado Springs CO, Dallas/Fort Worth TX); 3–5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience owning concurrent searches across technical and commercial functions; Hands-on fluency with Ashby or comparable ATS — pipeline configuration, reporting, and workflow automation, not data entry; Recruiting experience across Engineering, Ops, Growth, Mission Success, and Sales — vocabulary and evaluation criteria shift with the role; Closer's instinct — reads candidate motivation, negotiates offers confidently, identifies late-stage drop-off risk; Metrics-driven approach — tracks time-to-fill, source yield, offer-acceptance rate and adjusts search strategy in real time, not post-mortem; Extend and negotiate offers, partnering with compensation/HR as needed to close candidates; Startup or high-growth company experience — comfortable with ambiguity, shifting priorities, and building as you go rather than following an established playbook; Familiarity with niche or cleared talent pools (e.g., security clearance requirements, specialized technical skill sets)
