Talent AI Operator

### About the Role

A well-funded, pre-seed AI recruiting startup is looking for a Talent AI Operator to join their growing team. This is a genuinely new kind of role — you're not a traditional recruiter, and you're not a software engineer. You're the human who makes autonomous AI recruiting actually work.

The company's AI agents handle massive volume: thousands of candidates sourced, messaged, and qualified every week across a marketplace of tens of thousands of talents and hundreds of startup clients. Your job is to supervise those agents, catch edge cases, step in for high-judgment moments, and close candidates who need a human touch. Think air traffic controller, not pilot.

You'll help define what AI-native recruiting operations looks like as the company scales — this is a proving ground for high performers with a clear path into leadership.

### What You'll Do

• Supervise AI agent pipelines: Monitor live candidate conversations, flag errors, and intervene when the agent needs human judgment
• Handle high-stakes moments: Senior candidates, tricky objections, compensation negotiations — the conversations where humans still win
• Train the agents: Review agent outputs, label good/bad responses, and write examples that make the AI smarter over time
• Quality control at scale: Audit candidate matches, outreach quality, and conversion rates across thousands of weekly touchpoints
• Close placements: Guide candidates through final stages, handle offers, and ensure successful hires
• Build the playbook: Document what works, create SOPs, and help define how humans and AI agents collaborate effectively

### Growth Path

Strong performers can grow into

• Account Lead: Own client relationships and agent performance for key accounts
• Agent Training Lead: Own the feedback loop that makes the AI better
• Operations Lead: Build and manage the broader operations function
