The posting

FOUNDING RECRUITER

Monk is an AI-native accounts receivable (AR) platform for B2B companies helping businesses get paid fast.

The AR stack is broken. Finance teams still chase payments with spreadsheets, reconcile AR in spreadsheets and use software that was built a decade ago. We think this is one of the largest, most ignored problems in B2B software. Trillions of dollars sit in outstanding invoices and the tools to unlock cashflow are stuck in the past. We are rebuilding Monk with AI, speed, and real craftsmanship.

We are already doing this for over $1B of accounts receivables. We are backed by leading investors and our founders bring significant experience to our company (more here https://literate-vertebra-43d.notion.site/Who-we-are-1a13071c5fd380e9b006f1d9c57ea87f).

We are early, the upside is enormous, and the hardest, but also the most rewarding work is ahead of us.

THE ROLE:

Own Monk's talent engine end-to-end: how we find, evaluate, close, and onboard the exceptional people who will build the company.

You will partner directly with founders and hiring managers to turn company priorities into hires. This is a generalist role with an immediate focus on engineering and GTM: finding exceptional builders while building the systems, candidate experience, and hiring culture that let Monk scale.

This is one of Monk’s most important functions. The people you bring in will determine what we can build, how fast we move, and whether we win.

IN THIS ROLE YOU WILL:

- Own full-cycle recruiting across Monk: role intake, sourcing, outreach, assessment, coordination, and onboarding. Engineering is the immediate priority; over time, you will hire across product, GTM, operations, and leadership.

- Build exceptional engineering pipelines: Map target companies, technical communities, and emerging talent; find people others miss; run thoughtful outbound; and earn responses from high-agency technical candidates who have many options.

- Partner with founders and hiring managers on every search: Sharpen the profile, calibrate the bar, design the process, bring market intelligence and candidate signals to decisions, surface tradeoffs early, and keep the team moving with urgency.

- Build Monk’s recruiting operating system: interview loops, scorecards, sourcing workflows, candidate data, referrals, agency relationships, and funnel reporting. Make the system faster and more rigorous with every hire.

- Create a candidate experience that reflects Monk: Tell a compelling, honest story about the work and team; run a high-signal process; and make every candidate leave respecting the company.

- Automate more of your role: Use AI, automation, and great tooling to create more leverage, spend your time on the work that matters, and help Monk hire the best people faster.

WHO YOU ARE:

- 4+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including technical hiring for high-growth startups or similarly demanding environments.

- A demonstrable track record of sourcing exceptional engineers. You understand how strong builders evaluate a company and can earn their attention.

- Experience building or materially improving recruiting processes, systems, and data. You are comfortable owning an ATS and using funnel data to find and fix bottlenecks.

- Exceptional judgment. You can distinguish signal from polish, hold a high bar, and give founders and hiring managers clear, direct advice.

- AI-native. You use AI and automation daily to research, source, personalize, and operate at higher leverage.

- An owner. You don't wait for perfect requirements or file tickets. You find the constraint, fix it, and make sure it doesn't happen again.

- Excited to build in person in Flatiron, NYC.

BONUS IF YOU:

- have been a founding or early recruiting hire at an exceptional startup.

- have recruited engineers for developer tools, AI, fintech, infrastructure, or other technical products.

- have built a talent brand, community, or recruiting-event motion that helped a company win hard-to-reach candidates.

- have experience with Ashby.

OUR VALUES (WE HOPE THAT YOU WILL ADD YOUR DNA/VALUES AND IMPACT OUR CULTURE AS YOU BUILD WITH US):

- Ownership and craft: We own our work end to end and obsess over getting the details right. We believe that our Customers deserve the best possible outcomes and we strive to produce work that would get a 12/10 reaction from either our Customers or members of our team. Ownership is also knowing when to go deep on a problem and when to move fast. And when the v1 is live - we own all follow-through until it is perfect

- Speed and urgency: We ship daily. We act now. Not tomorrow and not the end of the week, but today - this hour. We love shipping fast to delight our Customers

- Radical clarity: We believe in getting to the truth. It is important that all of us reason from the same version of reality (the truth) so that we can get the best result. We strive to get the truth by any means necessary. This means being open to feedback, obsessing over improving from our mistakes and clear communication

WHY SOLVE THIS PROBLEM NOW:

- A broken market and a real shot at owning it. AR is huge, ignored, and ready to be rebuilt. We're early and the surface area is enormous

- $T+ market and max EV from a single AR wedge

- No clear winner has emerged in this massive category. It can be us

- Insulated from labs. This workflow is complex, too many integrations are required and the last mile in AR is too bespoke for general purpose models

- Hard problem worth solving. Revenue intelligence is challenging and inherently unsexy. Frankly, there are fewer strong companies in our space and we are building the most talent-dense team

- Undeniable $ROI that allows us to clearly illustrate value to Customers, and embeds us into integral workflows

- Our unfair advantage: We have ex-finance founders that have previously exited, scars and learnings from those experiences, an eng-first culture and late-mover advantage

WHY BUILD WITH US // WHAT WE OFFER:

- You want to be a founder someday. We are sharing everything we’ve learned building our past companies (25% of the team are 2nd time founders). One of our primary goals is to help you become a founder and create a place where you do your life’s best work (see more here https://literate-vertebra-43d.notion.site/Join-us-1a23071c5fd380bd9120e87c2d813803)

- Real ownership and an opportunity to 10x your learning curve. You will see your work go to production and deliver results for Customers, fast. Your own experience is the greatest teacher and at Monk we are maximizing the # of times you get to have valuable experiences

- Build at the frontier of applied AI and solve hard problems. You are curious about AI and do not want to miss this moment building at the frontier

- Experienced founders that have exited before and a motivated team that is all-in

- Competitive salary and meaningful equity

- Medical/dental/vision, flexible paid time off and dinner stipend

- Beautiful office in Flatiron, New York

WE HIRE FOR INTENSITY, CRAFT, AND ATTITUDE. WE BELIEVE THAT MOST THINGS CAN BE LEARNED.

Category defining companies are built with exceptional people. Our team is one of the products we're shipping = come help build it.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
