Fal AI Business Recruiter at Fal AI owns end-to-end searches across technical and non-technical roles. The role involves sourcing, assessing, closing candidates, and advising hiring managers with market data.
Responsibilities
You'll be the business partner and own searches end to end, from shaping the role with the hiring manager to sourcing, assessing, closing and handing off a great start. You'll move between technical and non-technical roles, so one week might be infrastructure engineers and the next might be finance, legal or GTM.
fal is deliberately flat and moves extremely fast. We need someone who can take a search, decide how to win it and run with it.
Own searches end to end: intake, strategy, sourcing, screening, interview process, offer and close, across engineering, research, GTM, finance, legal and operations
Advise the business: push back on role design, set realistic expectations with market data, and tell hiring managers what the talent market will and won't give them. Your read on candidates should shape hiring decisions
Find the non-obvious people: go past the obvious LinkedIn searches to find strong candidates others overlook, like adjacent backgrounds, under-the-radar builders and people who aren't looking yet
Source relentlessly: build pipelines through direct outreach, referrals, communities, events and AI sourcing tools. You write outreach people actually answer
Close: share fal's story, understand what each candidate actually cares about, run comp conversations and get offers signed
Raise the bar: help calibrate interview loops and screens so we hire for high agency and independent thinking, not just a strong résumé
Build as you go: improve processes, templates and reporting in Ashby, and use AI tools to automate the repetitive parts of recruiting
