Full Job Description
Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. OUR MISSION True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U. S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. OUR VALUES Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity. What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results. It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together. YOUR MISSION The Recruiting Operations Lead will own the strategy, systems, and data that power how we hire. This is a builder role: you'll lead enterprise-wide Talent initiatives, mature our analytical capabilities, and architect the operational backbone of a function that's scaling rapidly, while also leading our recruiting coordinator pod to deliver a candidate experience that matches the caliber of people we're trying to hire. You'll report to the Head of Talent, and partner directly with the recruiting team, hiring managers up to the ELT, and cross-functional partners in People Ops, Finance, IT, and Security. RESPONSIBILITIES Lead strategic initiatives for the Talent Team. Drive high-impact projects across the full Talent Acquisition lifecycle, from sourcing through onboarding. Define the problem, design the solution, lead the implementation. This is the work that turns "we should fix that" into shipped systems the whole team uses. Deliver advanced data insights and business intelligence. Run deep-dive analyses across Talent Team data — pipeline efficiency, source effectiveness, recruiter performance, hiring capacity, market intelligence, offer decline drivers, comp competitiveness — and translate findings into the narratives, recommendations, and executive presentations that inform ELT and board decision
