We provide this support free to doctors and patients, helping them get life-changing medicine faster, cheaper, and easier. The resulting network enables biopharma companies to design better research, launch new drugs more effectively, and invest in harder-to-treat conditions.\nForus has exceptional product-market fit and is growing rapidly through organic adoption:\nAccelerating scale: We already support patients across more than 85% of ZIP codes and partner with 9 of top 15 largest biopharma companies in the world.\n\nAI-native, durable model: Our business becomes stronger as AI improves, as every new doctor, patient, and partner makes the network more valuable.\n\nBacking to build for the long term: We raised $300M+ from leading investors to build an exceptional team and unlock the full scale of the opportunity.\n\nOur number one priority is scaling to market demand. We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us increase capacity and grow. We move fast and need to move faster.\nIf we succeed, science will be the only limit to medicine.\nAll full-time roles are in person in New York.\nAbout the role\nAs our first Recruiting Operations hire, you will build and run the operational backbone of our recruiting engine. Forus is scaling hiring quickly across technical and non-technical teams, and all of it sits on top of systems, data, tools, and processes that need a dedicated owner.\nYou will own our Ashby architecture, the reporting and dashboards leadership trusts, and the operating cadence that keeps recruiters and hiring managers focused on the company’s most important hiring priorities.

If you are low-ego, hungry to learn, and excited about intense, impactful work that drives both company growth and accelerated career progression, we want to hear from you.\nIf you join, you will:\nOwn Forus’s Ashby architecture end to end, including jobs, interview plans, workflows, permissions, automations, integrations, and data integrity\n\nProduce the reporting and dashboards that become the company’s source of truth for hiring progress, recruiting capacity, funnel conversion, time to hire, and source quality\n\nAudit the hiring process across functions, identify where candidates are moving slowly or being lost, and drive the operational changes required to fix it\n\nTranslate company headcount plans and changing business priorities into search prioritization, recruiter capacity plans, hiring forecasts, and clear operating cadences\n\nDevelop the processes, templates, playbooks, and service standards that help recruiters and hiring managers run rigorous searches consistently\n\nOwn the recruiting technology stack beyond Ashby, including scheduling and sourcing platforms, Slack integrations, referral tools, and AI products such as Clay or Juicebox\n\nBuild and continuously improve company-wide referral programs, making it easy for employees to identify, submit, engage, and track exceptional candidates\n\nSurface the trends, risks, and bottlenecks that are not obvious from a dashboard, and synthesize them into clear recommendations for recruiting and company leadership\n\nWe’re looking for you if you have:\n3-8 years in recruiting operations, people operations, revenue operations, business operations, or another systems- and analytics-oriented role, ideally in a rapidly scaling company\n\nStrong hands-on experience configuring and improving a modern ATS; direct Ashby experience is strongly preferred\n\nDeep comfort with data: Excel or Sheets is table stakes, and experience with SQL, BigQuery, or a business-intelligence tool is a plus\n\nCommunication and influence ability to drive adoption and accountability across recruiters, hiring managers, interviewers, and senior leaders\n\nA track record of moving quickly, finding shortcuts, and going to unreasonable lengths to deliver on goals\n\nHigh NPS with your former teammates\n\nBonus: Experience standing up RecOps systems and process from scratch at an early-stage or hyper-scaling company\n\nThis is a list of ideal qualifications for this position. If you don't meet every single one of them, you should still consider applying!

Resist false constraints and push beyond the obvious before deciding.\n\nSpit it out. Speak directly, invite critique, avoid equivocation. We want right answers, not comfortable ones. All killer, no filler.\n\nRaise the bar. Hold a high standard for your pace and execution, and elevate the performance of the team around you. Mamba mentality.\n\nFight for users.
