About Recall.ai

Recall is the universal API for meeting bots. Our unified API captures data from meeting platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. We support over 700 companies today, and process millions of hours of meeting data every year. We provide a simple API to a problem that typically takes our customers more than a year to build in house, and a team of 5 to maintain forever.

We’re at an inflection point in our growth. In a market where everyone is mining for gold, we’re selling shovels. We grew 1300% last year to multi-million ARR, and serve category leaders such as Calendly, Apollo.io, Instacart, Mindtickle, and more. Our NRR is 150%.

About the role

Recall.ai’s mission is to make it easy for developers to work with conversation data.

Conversations have become the world’s largest dataset. Every year there are more words spoken over phone calls & video conferences than on every webpage on the internet.

Recall.ai is the foundational infrastructure enabling 700+ companies to tap into this dataset.

Recall.ai is growing extremely fast.

  • In 2023 we grew revenue over 12x and raised our Series A
  • In 2024 team grew from 4 to 16 people and our revenue is on track to quadruple
  • In 2025 we expect to triple our revenue and massively grow our engineering team.

About the role

Our #1 priority today is to build an extraordinarily strong engineering team. We operate critical infrastructure for our 700+ customers, including public companies, and the difficulty of the problem domain means that we’re extremely selective in our engineering hiring. As the first recruiter at the company you will have total ownership and creative freedom to convince the best engineers in the world to join our team.

In This Role, You Will

  • Build out our technical recruitment process from the ground up.
  • Be given autonomy and full resources needed to find the top 1% of engineers.
  • Work directly with the founders and engineering leads to set high level strategy.
  • Triple our engineering headcount, while maintaining an extremely high talent bar.

Why You Should Join

  • You want to take full ownership of our technical recruiting motion.
  • You are looking for a rapid learning experience and senior-level responsibilities.
  • You have an unreasonably high standard for the people you work with, and want to recruit the best engineers in the world.

Why You Shouldn’t Join

  • You are not ready for the occasional 60 hour work week.
  • You are not comfortable working without clear structure.
  • You are not ready for a risky career opportunity. Even with our growth, we are still an early-stage startup. If you need something more predictable, this is not the right fit.
  • You’re not actively excited about working specifically with engineers.

You have:

  • Deep curiosity about what motivates candidates and about what differentiates a great engineer from a truly excellent engineer.
  • Strong zeal to learn the nuances of software development.
  • Demonstrated creativity in finding top candidates wherever they are. For example, while hiring engineers, you might have:
    • Read engineering blogs
    • Written an engineering blog
    • Posted on Hacker News
    • Hosted events, meetups and hackathons
    • Bonus points if you've done something we haven't even thought of!
  • Full lifecycle technical recruiting experience at high growth tech startups.

Ideally you:

  • Were an engineer, studied engineering, or have a technical background.
  • Have previously founded your own startup.
  • Have worked at a developer tools or software infrastructure company.

Other Benefits

  • 100% covered, top-of-the-line health insurance, dental, and vision.
  • Computer and workspace enhancements.
  • Unlimited PTO.
  • Free breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.
  • Bi-annual company off-sites with the team and explore exciting destinations around the world.
Technology

Knowledge of our tech is not necessary, but if you're curious, we use:

  • API Frontend: Django
  • Real-time Video Processing: Rust
  • Database: Postgres
  • Infrastructure: Kubernetes running on AWS EKS. All infrastructure managed through Terraform.
