About The Role We are seeking a seasoned and hands-on Director / Senior Director of Talent Acquisition to lead and elevate our global recruiting function. Depending on experience, direct industry/company stage experience, and demonstrated leadership scope, this position may be hired at either the Director or Senior Director level. This role is an opportunity to architect the next phase of Talent Acquisition at YipitData — expanding the team's strong operational strengths into a strategic, metrics-driven, and tech-enabled hiring engine. You will lead a growing team (currently 7, with plans to expand), partner closely with senior leadership on workforce planning and executive hiring, and build a proactive internal sourcing capability. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone excited to operate at both strategic and operational levels — designing scalable systems while staying close to execution. For candidates joining at the Senior Director level, there will be additional near-term opportunities to shape broader talent strategy, influence organizational planning, and serve as a strategic advisor to executive leadership on talent-related decisions. We are looking for a leader who thrives in high-growth environments, brings operational rigor, understands how to leverage modern recruiting technology (including AI tools), and builds strong cross-functional partnerships across the business. This is a remote-friendly opportunity that can sit in NYC (where our headquarters is located), one of our office hubs (Austin, Miami, Denver, Mountain View, or Seattle), or anywhere else in the US.
