Recruiter

Imagine having an enterprise-grade AppStore at work — one that ensures you can easily search, request, and gain access to any app you need, precisely when you need it. No more long waiting times with outstanding IT requests. Lumos is solving the app and access management challenges for organizations of all sizes through a unified platform. Our fast-growing startup is pioneering the way to untangle the complex web of app and access management by building the critical infrastructure that defines relationships between app, identities and data.

Why Lumos?

• Jump on a Rocketship: Since launching out of stealth mode just over 2 years ago, our team has grown from 20 to ~100 people and our customer base has 10x’ed with companies like GitHub, MongoDB and Major League Baseball!

• Build with Renowned Investor Backing: Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) backed us since the beginning and we've raised over $65m from Scale, Neo, Greg Brockman (President at OpenAI), Phil Venables (CISO at Google), and others.

• Thrive in a Unique Culture: You’ll join an early-stage company where you have actual influence on the trajectory of the company. We deeply care about our people and the philosophy we live by - check out our values here.

As a Recruiter at Lumos, you’ll play a foundational role in building the team that builds Lumos. Your work will directly shape our product, our culture, and our ability to scale with excellence. You'll partner closely with hiring managers and the leadership team to understand talent needs, drive pipeline, and deliver an unforgettable candidate experience, all while shaping recruiting systems that are designed to scale.

You’ll own your roles from end to end. Beyond execution, you’ll contribute to the continuous improvement of our recruiting strategy, processes, and storytelling — helping Lumos become a magnet for exceptional talent.

✨ Your Responsibilities

• Full-Cycle Ownership: Lead full-cycle recruiting across tech and non-tech roles, from intake to close, including sourcing, screening, coordinating, and candidate communication.

• Trusted Partner to Hiring Managers: Serve as a consultative partner to hiring managers. Help them scope roles, align interview panels, and identify opportunities to improve the candidate funnel.

• Pipeline Generation: Source and engage top-tier passive talent through creative outreach and storytelling. Deliver ≥50% self-sourced pipeline on priority roles.

• Process Builder: Help standardize recruiting processes with interview kickoffs, debriefs, feedback loops, and improve them over time based on what’s working and what’s not.

• Candidate Experience Champion: Deliver a candidate experience that reflects Lumos’ culture: thoughtful, respectful, human, and warm — even for candidates we don’t hire.

• DEI Advocacy: Embed equity into sourcing, screening, and interviewing processes. Source from diverse communities and advocate for structured, fair evaluation practices.

🙌 What We’re Looking For

• 4-6 years of full-cycle recruiting experience across technical and non-technical roles

• Have worked at a smaller, high-growth company where you wore many hats and helped shape early recruiting processes

• Are comfortable with one-off or niche searches and can tailor your approach to each

• Proactive about building candidate pipelines, not waiting for inbound

• Bonus points: familiarity with tools like Ashby, Greenhouse .Gem, and ModernLoop

⭐️ What We Value

We also care about whether you would be a good fit for Lumos based on the values and characteristics that define how we achieve outcomes, not just your resume.

Thank you for considering Lumos, we hope to hear from you! 🎉

💰 Pay Range

• $135,000 - $185,000 (Note that this range is a good faith estimate of likely pay for this role; upon hire, the pay may differ due to skill and/or level of experience.)

Mission

This Recruiter will directly shape the future of our team. You’ll work closely with hiring managers to identify hidden talent, craft inclusive and intentional interview processes, and create a candidate experience that makes every person, whether hired or not, walk away saying “WOW!”

You’ll own top-priority roles across Engineering, Product, Design, GTM, or G&A and have real influence in how we scale from 120 Alchemists today to 150+ and beyond. You’ll also play a key role in building the systems, playbooks, and best practices that help us recruit with heart, speed, and precision - now and at scale.
