Introducing HireHawk

At HireHawk, we're on an exciting journey to revolutionize the global outsourcing and recruiting landscape through cutting-edge AI-driven automation and smart systems. Our leadership team, which successfully scaled a company from the ground up to over $100M in just two years, is now channeling that same energy and expertise to transform how organizations discover, recruit, and retain top talent.

Why Join HireHawk?

We’re reimagining the world of global staffing with innovative AI solutions, streamlining the workflow for recruiters, sales teams, and clients alike. To support our ambitious growth, we’re on the lookout for a seasoned AI Engineer who can elevate today’s labor-intensive growth activities (like crafting job postings, compiling and enriching prospect lists, and initiating outreach) into seamless, automated AI agent workflows that function autonomously.

60-Day Success Blueprint

• Within 30 Days: Select the AI tools you plan to implement, then collaboratively design and launch our v1 lead-generation agent: sourcing and enriching prospect lists using tools like Clay or Apollo, sending tailored cold emails and LinkedIn messages, and scheduling appointments using Zoho Bookings and CRM to effectively manage leads and opportunities.
• Within 60 Days: Deliver a proof-of-concept that transcribes client meetings, generates personalized job postings based on client requirements, and publishes these job postings to Workable via API.

Core Responsibilities

• Architect, code, and own agent workflows (LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI or your proven alternative).
• Integrate SaaS stack—Workable, Clay, Apollo, Zoho CRM, Slack—via REST/GraphQL, webhooks, or serverless functions.
• Stand up vector-DB/RAG components (Pinecone, Weaviate, FAISS) when retrieval outperforms prompt-only.
• Build CI/CD, observability, and alerting; no “set-and-forget” agents.
• Set weekly metrics, A/B prompt variants, and iterate fast.
• As demand for AI grows internally and for client services, help hire and coach junior engineers & ops to ideate and ship future AI solutions.

Must-Haves for This Role

• Track Record: 3 + LLM / agent systems in production (not hackathons). Provide links, demos, or client references.
• Languages & Tooling: Expert Python and one typed language (TS/Go/Java). LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, or equivalent mastery.
• Data & Infrastructure: Hands-on with vector DBs, embeddings, RAG, OpenAI / Anthropic APIs; Docker; CI/CD; cloud serverless (GCP, AWS, or Azure).
• Collaboration: Excellent written English; thrives in async, documentation-heavy culture.

Nice-to-Haves for This Role

• Growth Context: Built or automated outbound funnels—email, LinkedIn, or similar—with measurable revenue impact.
• Tech API Familiarity: Prior experience with Zoho One, Workable, or Deel APIs.
• Industry Experience: Prior experience in Recruiting, HR, or B2B SaaS.

What Happens After You Apply?

1. Instant AI interview link (~20 min)
   After submission, and if selected, we'll immediately send you a link to be interviewed with our AI recruiter. This required step allows us to learn more about you and what makes you a top candidate.
2. 48-hour human review
   Real HireHawk recruiters assess your interview. If you're a potential fit, we'll reach out to coordinate a live interview with you.
   

** Bottom line: the AI interview is mandatory and those who finish ASAP are more likely to be hired. **
