ABOUT NEO

AI is the most significant shift in how work gets done since the advent of the Internet — yet most organizations fail to capture its value. Neo is changing that. 

Founded by Bhavin Turakhia — Co-Founder of ZetaRadix, and Titan — Neo is building an integrated, AI-first suite of products that capture work, centralize context, and make AI a first-class participant in every workflow: 

  • Tasket — A radically reimagined, AI-native work management platform that centralizes context and makes AI delegation seamless for all work.

  • Friday — AI Assistant, co-worker and agent platform, pre-integrated into Tasket, Studio, Drive and 1000+ SaaS platforms.

  • Studio — AI-native suite for co-creating docs, spreadsheets and diagrams collaboratively with humans and agents.

  • Drive — AI-native repository, where humans and agents can co-work on files.

  • Scribe — AI assistant for meetings that goes beyond note-taking and actually does your work while on the call.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Tech Recruiter at Neo, you'll own full-cycle hiring for engineering and technical roles — the people who'll build Neo itself. You'll treat AI the way a great recruiter treats a strong referral network: as leverage. You'll run sourcing, drafting, ranking, and coordination through AI so your human hours go where they actually matter — reading candidates, earning a strong engineer's trust, selling the mission, and making judgment calls a model can't. If you still copy-paste the same outreach fifty times by hand, this role will feel like a downgrade. If that sentence made you wince, we should talk.

You'll partner closely with Engineering leaders, keep candidates genuinely well-treated end to end, close offers that stick, and help build the AI-native recruiting motion itself — the prompts, the playbooks, and the shared skills that make the whole Talent team faster.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own the full cycle. Take technical mandates from intake to signed offer — sourcing, screening, interview management, offer, and close — with engineering hiring managers as true partners, not ticket-takers.

  • Recruit with AI in the loop. Use AI to source hard-to-find engineers, draft outreach, summarize screens, rank pipelines, and prep interview kits — then apply the human judgment that decides who actually moves forward.

  • Speak the craft. Hold a credible first conversation with strong engineers across Backend, Frontend, SDET, and Data Science — enough to earn trust and calibrate for real signal.

  • Build the machine, not just the hires. Turn what works into reusable prompts, playbooks, and skills the rest of the Talent team can run.

  • Protect the candidate experience. Fast, honest, respectful — every candidate should leave the process thinking well of Neo, offer or not.

  • Run on data. Track funnel health, spot where technical pipelines leak, and course-correct with numbers rather than vibes.

  • Close. Sell the mission, navigate competing offers from big tech and hot startups, and get the right engineers to say yes.

SKILLS

  • Deep familiarity with technical hiring — you understand engineering roles well enough to calibrate for signal, not just keywords.

  • Genuine fluency with AI tools, and the curiosity to push them past the defaults. You experiment, you iterate on prompts, you don't wait for a manual.

  • Sharp written and verbal communication — outreach that busy engineers actually reply to.

  • Strong stakeholder partnership — you build trusted relationships with hiring managers, align early on what great looks like, and can offer a candid point of view while keeping the collaboration positive.

  • Comfort with ambiguity and speed — startup pace is a feature for you, not a bug.

  • Sound judgment on where automation ends and a human conversation has to begin.

  • High standards and higher ownership — you close roles, you don't just work them.

EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS

  • 5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience.

  • A track record of closing hard-to-fill engineering roles at both volume and quality.

  • Experience recruiting for product-based companies (essential) — you know what it takes to hire builders for a product team.

  • Demonstrated use of AI or automation to make your own work faster (bonus points if you can show us your favourite workflow).

  • A bias for action, a low tolerance for busywork, and a real appetite for the volume of hiring ahead.
