Are you the person who keeps a high-volume interview engine running smoothly? We're looking for a Manager, Recruiting Coordination to lead and grow our Recruiting Coordinator team across San Francisco and New York.

Our coordinators support multiple recruiters and hiring teams, handling a high volume of mostly technical interview loops. They partner with executive assistants on confidential roles, and support the opening of jobs and the building of interview plans for all roles. You'll make sure that pace stays sustainable for the team and smooth for every candidate. You'll also take on project work as a part of Recruiting Operations to improve how recruiting operations, and recruiting overall, runs at Baseten.
