People & Talent Lead (Remote)

‍Be the force behind assembling a world-class team.

At Founder OS, our mission is to transform entrepreneurs into legendary brands through simple systems, exceptional support, and a vibrant founder community. Achieving this requires a rare team - A-players who operate with extreme ownership, taste, and velocity.

That’s where you come in.

As our People & Talent Lead, you will own the hiring engine: sourcing, headhunting, screening, culture filtering, and delivering only the highest-caliber talent to Matt and Claire. You’ll maintain a proactive pipeline across all critical roles while also supporting key operational initiatives across the company.

The Role

This is not traditional HR.

It’s high-velocity talent scouting, systematic hiring, and operational execution inside a fast-growing founder-led company.

You will:

Own Hiring End-to-End

• Run the full recruitment lifecycle: sourcing, outreach, ads, inbound screening, scorecards, interviews, reference checks.
  
• Build & maintain a proactive hiring pipeline for high-impact roles across content, sales, growth, operations, and success.
  
• Headhunt top talent using creative sourcing methods - LinkedIn, niche communities, referrals, project trials, and outbound.
  
• Run world-class intro calls that filter for skill, ownership, culture, and pace.
  
• Translate vague needs into clear briefs by partnering directly with Matt & Claire.
  
• Build repeatable hiring systems and documentation (templates, scorecards, interview guides).
  (“Writing-first culture - if it’s not written, it doesn’t exist.”)
  

Be a Culture Gatekeeper

• Ensure every candidate is aligned with Founder OS values: extreme ownership, simplicity, quality, velocity, solutions-not-problems.
  
• Assess culture fit with precision - protect the bar and raise it.
  
• Maintain the “A-player only” environment by ensuring only the strongest candidates reach final rounds.
  

Operational Support

• Support ad hoc operational projects across departments (content, success, events, systems).
  
• Assist in maintaining hiring dashboards, tracking candidate progress, and reporting weekly updates during Level 10 meetings.
  
• Step into operational gaps with speed and reliability - solving problems before they escalate.
  
• Help build & optimize SOPs across hiring, onboarding, and cross-functional workflows.
  

Leadership Enablement

• Protect Matt’s and Claire’s time by reducing hiring noise and presenting only vetted, qualified candidates.
  
• Manage communication lines with candidates, hiring managers, and external partners.
  
• Maintain tight follow-up systems - no dropped balls, no ambiguity.
  
  • (A core expectation across all Founder OS roles.)
    

What Success Looks Like

• A-player pipeline always active with recruiting running proactively, not reactively.
  
• Roles filled fast - high-quality hires, minimal misfires.
  
• Accurate briefs turned into repeatable, systemized hiring processes.
  
• Extreme clarity for leadership - weekly updates, dashboards, and clean tracking.
  
• Candidates reflect Founder OS culture before they ever meet Matt.
  
• No balls dropped - every action has an owner, an outcome, and a follow-through.
  
• Operational tasks executed with precision, improving team velocity and freeing leadership time.
  
• Documented, scalable hiring systems built and maintained by you.
  

Requirements

Founder OS is not for everyone - we operate fast, think clearly, and hold a very high bar.

You have:

• 2–5+ years in recruiting, talent acquisition, or operations in a fast-paced environment.
  
• Proven ability to source and vet top talent (creatives, operators, technical roles, sales).
  
• Strong understanding of startup culture and what A-players look like.
  
• Exceptional communication — confident, clear, and concise on calls and in writing.
  
• High operational rigor: systems thinking, follow-through, tracking, and documentation.
  
• Ability to manage multiple pipelines and priorities in a remote environment.
  
• High emotional intelligence and strong culture-filtering instincts.
  
• A solutions-first mindset - always bringing answers, not problems.
  (One of our core values.)
  
• Comfort working closely with leadership in a founder-led environment.
  

Bonus if you have:

• Experience in online education, media, or creator-focused companies.
  
• Experience building SOPs, scorecards, and hiring systems.
  

Ideal Candidate

• You operate with extreme ownership and want full responsibility for building a world-class team.
  
• You move fast, with high precision, and see around corners.
  
• You can turn chaos into clarity and build systems that scale.
  
• You’re energized by supporting a mission-driven team transforming entrepreneurship.
  
• You’re proactive, reliable, and thrive in a high-expectation, remote environment.
  
• You raise standards, not questions.

Our Culture

Founder OS is built on freedom, community, creativity, and simplicity. We operate with extreme ownership and high standards, and we expect the same from everyone on our team. This is a place where:

• We move fast, execute with clarity, and keep systems simple.
  
• Growth is the standard - professionally and personally. Feedback is embraced, learning is constant, and improvement never stops.
  
• Celebrating wins loudly, and tackling challenges directly.
  
• Obsess over quality.
  
• Bring solutions, never problems.

If you want to help build an elite team, shape the future of Founder OS, and operate at the highest standard, you’ll thrive here.
