Job Description

About Traversal

Traversal is the AI Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) for the enterprise—already trusted by some of the largest companies in the world to troubleshoot, remediate, and even prevent the most complex production incidents. Our mission is to free engineers from endless firefighting and enable them to focus on creative, high-impact work.

Our roots remain deeply embedded in AI research, and we’re channeling that scientific rigor and creativity into building the premier AI agent lab for the enterprise. Hence, what we’re proudest of is assembling the most talented yet nicest group of individuals, including researchers from MIT, Harvard, and Berkeley, to world-class engineers from industry: Citadel Securities, Cockroach Labs, Datadog, DE Shaw, ServiceNow, Glean, Perplexity, Pinecone, and more, to take on one of the hardest problems for AI to solve. Without the entire team, none of this would be possible.

The Role

As a Recruiter, you will own full-cycle hiring for some of Traversal’s most critical roles, initially focused on our Engineering, Product, and Design (EPD) team. You’ll partner directly with hiring managers and founders to define hiring strategy, build and manage pipelines, and deliver an exceptional candidate experience from first outreach through offer. You’ll join a lean, high-ownership Talent team, with real latitude to build process and bar as we scale. As the team grows, this role may expand beyond EPD to support hiring across the company.

Responsibilities

  • Own full-cycle recruiting for assigned roles, initially within EPD and Research: manage everything from intake through offer, including sourcing, screening, and closing

  • Partner with leaders to build hiring strategy: calibrate role scope, must-haves, and success profiles, and translate them into effective sourcing and screening plans

  • Build and manage active pipelines by proactively sourcing and engaging top candidates, rather than relying solely on inbound applications

  • Drive a best-in-class candidate experience, ensuring every candidate has a thoughtful, well-communicated process

  • Improve recruiting process and infrastructure by building playbooks that scale with the team

  • Represent Traversal acting as a strong ambassador for the company in every candidate interaction

Requirements

  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally including technical hiring at a startup or high-growth company

  • Demonstrated ability to source and close candidates independently, without heavy reliance on inbound pipelines

  • Strong stakeholder management skills; comfortable driving process with engineering, product, and design leaders

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

  • High degree of ownership and comfort operating with ambiguity and limited process

  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail across a high volume of concurrent searches

  • Genuine curiosity about AI and enterprise software, with the ability to speak credibly to technical candidates

Nice to Have

  • Recruiting experience at an early-stage (Series A/B) AI or developer tooling startup

  • Experience recruiting for applied research or ML-heavy roles

  • Familiarity with modern ATS and sourcing tools (e.g., Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter, Gem)

  • Experience building recruiting processes or playbooks from scratch

  • Experience recruiting across multiple functions beyond engineering (e.g., go-to-market, operations)

  • Experience with AI native recruiting tools (Juicebox, Metaview, etc.)

Compensation

We offer competitive compensation, startup equity, health insurance, and additional benefits. The U.S. base salary range for this full-time, in-person role in New York is $170,000 - $250,000, plus equity and benefits. Our salary ranges are based on location, level, and role. Individual compensation is determined by experience, skills, and job-related knowledge.

Why You Should Join Us

We’ll make sure you’re fully supported with health insurance, a great tech setup, flexible time off, and plenty of in-office snacks. We offer competitive salary and equity packages, and take thoughtful consideration with every hire on our small, high-impact team.

Traversal is fully in-office, 5 days a week, based in New York near Madison Square Park. We have a collaborative, hard-working culture and are energized by building the future of AI-powered software maintenance.

Working here means owning meaningful parts of the product, having the flexibility to move fast, and learning constantly. This is a place to grow your career, make a real impact, and help define a new category of infrastructure software.
