About the role

Kick is an applied AI company building the first self-driving bookkeeping experience in Palo Alto. We’ve raised $20M from OpenAI, General Catalyst and GV to help millions of business owners automate the boring stuff. We are hiring a recruiting leader who owns the full cycle, sources proactively, builds processes, and partners with the founders to hire across GTM, Engineering, Product, and Operations. The role manages 8–12 open roles with 4–5 days in the office.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
