We build intelligent agents that understand real-world workflows and execute them end-to-end - replacing manual processes and rigid legacy systems with adaptive, learning software. Founded in early 2024, Serval is already trusted by companies like Fox, Notion, Perplexity, Vercel, and Brex to automate high-volume, high-friction operational work across their organizations.\nAt the core of Serval is an agentic AI platform that turns natural language into production-grade workflows. Our agents don’t just respond to requests - they reason, take action across systems, and continuously improve with usage. What began with operational use cases has quickly evolved into a horizontal AI automation layer used across IT, HR, Finance, Security, Legal, and Engineering.\nOur mission is to eliminate repetitive, manual work across the enterprise and give teams leverage through intelligent automation. Long term, we’re building the universal AI operations layer - a system of agents that sits across business functions and runs the workflows that keep modern companies moving.\nWe’re backed by leading investors including Sequoia Capital, Redpoint Ventures, Meritech, First Round, General Catalyst, Elad Gil, and others.\nRole Overview\nAs a Technical Recruiter at Serval, you’ll build and own our talent acquisition strategy from the ground up, focusing primarily on engineering roles.
