Job description

About Us

Conversion is the agentic marketing automation platform for modern enterprises such as Plaid, ClickHouse, Webflow, and Productboard. Our platform lets growth teams run their entire go-to-market motion in one place, from acquisition through retention, with AI agents doing the work that legacy tools like Marketo, HubSpot, and Pardot can't.

We've raised $28M+ from Abstract Ventures, True Ventures, and HOF Capital. The team is based in San Francisco and includes engineers, designers, and operators from Airbnb, Palantir, Pinterest, IMC, Shopify, LinkedIn, and Microsoft.

About the Role

You'll build and own Conversion's sourcing function from the ground up. That means partnering directly with founders and hiring managers to reach out to exceptional talent across both GTM and technical roles. Furthermore, it includes helping shape the systems, culture, and candidate experience that will define how we grow.

This role is in-person 5 days/week in San Francisco.

Partner with hiring managers to build effective sourcing strategies and keep pipelines full of world class talent
Iterate on the recruiting infrastructure: pipelines, documentation, ATS hygiene, and interview processes
