Head of Talent

Why join Giga The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here. The Impact : Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship. The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more. The Moment : AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening. What you'll do Giga is growing fast — across engineering, operations, finance, and everything in between — and we need a Head of Talent who can build the recruiting engine that keeps pace with our ambition. This isn't a coordination role. You'll own the full talent lifecycle: strategy, execution, team leadership, and the hiring bar. You'll inherit a team of recruiters, grow it, and be the person who ensures that every hire we make raises the collective bar. If you've spent your career finding exceptional people for hard-to-fill roles across multiple functions, and you want to do that at a company where the stakes are real, this is your seat. Where you'll work We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays. That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works. Responsibilities Hold the Hiring Bar Lead, coach, and grow an existing team of recruiters; set hiring goals, manage capacity, and raise the performance bar across the team. Partner with founders and hiring managers to define role scope, candidate profiles, and compensation benchmarks. Ensure recruiters have high-quality pipeline through proactive sourcing, referrals, and strategic use of recruiting tools and platforms. Design and continuously improve interview processes that are rigorous, structured, and candidate-respectful. Track and report on recruiting metrics — time-to-fill, offer acceptance rates, pipeline health — and use data to make better decisions. Develop and own Giga's employer brand strategy to attract top talent across all target markets. Manage relationships with external search partners and agencies when needed, ensuring alignment with Giga's standards. Requirements 8+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience spanning multiple functions (e.g., technical, operations, go-to-market, finance). 3+ years managing and developing a team of recruiters. Demonstrated ability to hire for senior and specialized roles in competitive talent markets. Experience building or significantly improving recruiting processes, tooling, and team infrastructure at a high-growth company. Strong data literacy — comfortable using recruiting metrics to diagnose problems and drive decisions. Proficiency with an ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, or equivalent) and sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, etc.). Bonus points Start up Experience Background building employer brand programs from the ground up. Experience recruiting for roles across multiple US markets simultaneously. Familiarity with compensation benchmarking tools such as Radford, Levels.fyi, or Carta Total Comp. Benefits Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup 401(k) with 4% employer match Unlimited PTO Parental leave Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) Commuter benefits Who we hire We hire people who thrive in chaos and get sharper under pressure. You don't wait to be told what to do, you spot the gap and fill it. When there's work to be done, you do it. You make decisions with the information you have, move fast, and adjust along the way. We're not looking for perfect; we're looking for people who get things done.
