About the Role
FieldAI is looking for a highly organized, systems-minded, and execution-focused Recruiting Operations Coordinator to help scale world-class hiring operations across the company.
This is not a traditional scheduling-only coordinator role. We are specifically looking for someone who is a true Lever power-user and can own the operational backbone of recruiting while also delivering an exceptional candidate experience.
You will serve as the operational engine behind recruiting at FieldAI — managing complex interview coordination, optimizing ATS workflows, maintaining pristine recruiting data, and helping build scalable hiring infrastructure as we grow rapidly.
The ideal candidate thrives in high-velocity environments, obsesses over details, anticipates problems before they happen, and genuinely enjoys building efficient recruiting systems that enable teams to hire exceptional talent quickly.
This role is highly cross-functional and visible, partnering closely with recruiters, hiring managers, executives, HR, and candidates across the company.
