Talent AI Operator (Visa Sponsorship - San Francisco, USA)

Visa sponsorship available. Salary: $85,000 - $120,000 per year (Est.) plus uncapped performance-based pay tied to placements. This is a hands-on operations role at an early-stage recruiting technology company that runs autonomous AI recruiting agents. You will supervise agent-led candidate conversations, step in when a person's judgment is needed, and shape how humans and AI work together across the hiring process. The job combines recruiting expertise, quality review of AI output, and closing senior placements.

What you'll do

• Monitor conversations run by AI recruiting agents, spot errors, and take over when a situation calls for human judgment.
• Lead senior candidates through complex discussions, including objections, compensation questions, and final hiring stages.
• Review agent responses, label output quality, and give examples and feedback that improve agent performance.
• Audit candidate matching, outreach quality, and conversion metrics across recruiting pipelines.
• Manage offer discussions and support candidates through to successful placement.
• Write operating procedures and playbooks for human and AI collaboration, working with product, engineering and leadership.

What you need

• At least 2 years of recruiting, sourcing or talent operations experience, ideally at early-stage technology startups.
• Hands-on experience using AI tools such as ChatGPT or Claude to evaluate outputs, find errors and understand their limits.
• Proven record closing placements and personally running final-stage conversations, including offer negotiation and objection handling.
• Comfort using recruiting data (KPIs, dashboards, A/B tests, conversion analysis) to guide decisions.
• Experience labeling outputs or giving feedback to improve AI, machine learning or agent systems is a strong plus.
• Working knowledge of TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL or Supabase is helpful but not required.
