Recruiter at Atoms in New York, NY

Job description

• We're looking for a Recruiter to own hiring across Transport Operations at Atoms. You'll partner directly with operations leadership to build the teams keeping our physical systems moving — and you'll do it with the speed, rigor, and bar-setting that scaling real-world infrastructure demands.
• At Atoms, you'll work on one of the defining challenges of our time—bringing automation into the physical world to drive real, lasting impact. We exist to uncover valuable unknown truths and turn them into progress, which means constantly pushing beyond what's known and building what doesn't yet exist. The work is ambitious and often challenging, but it's grounded in a shared sense of purpose and a team committed to seeing it through together. Our work only matters if it serves others, and we know that meaningful progress depends on the trust of the people we serve and the strength of our team—so we invest in both, creating an environment where you can do your best work and grow.

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle recruiting for transport operations roles — from intake through close.
• Partner with hiring managers and operations leads to define role requirements, calibrate candidate profiles, and align on hiring strategy
• Drive proactive sourcing through Indeed, Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, industry networks, and referral pipelines to build deep candidate pools ahead of need
• Screen and assess candidates for both operational competency and cultural fit, providing structured feedback and clear recommendations to hiring teams
• Design and iterate on interview processes — ensuring they are structured, consistent, and predictive of on-the-job performance
• Negotiate and close offers, partnering with People and Finance on comp benchmarking and approval workflows
• Track and report on pipeline health, funnel metrics, and time-to-fill; use data to identify bottlenecks and drive continuous improvement
• Represent Atoms's mission and culture authentically — you're often the first impression candidates have of the company

Requirements

• 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience
• Proven track record closing roles in transport operations, fleet management, last-mile delivery, or related functions — you understand the talent landscape and can build credibility with ops hiring managers
• Strong sourcing instincts — you're not reliant on inbound and can find and engage candidates who aren't actively looking
• Exceptional communication and influence skills; you can manage multiple stakeholders, push back when needed, and build trust at all levels
• Data-driven approach to recruiting — you track what matters, identify trends, and use metrics to improve outcomes
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple open requisitions simultaneously while providing a white glove candidate experience
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fast paced environment
• You're a self-starter who builds process where it's needed and cuts it where it isn't
