APPLYING TO RENDER
We're seeking candidates who possess high integrity, humility, and an insatiable drive to learn. Through reasoned discussions and continuous feedback, we strive to improve both individually and collectively. We foster an environment of mutual trust and respect, empowering effective debate to achieve the best outcomes for our customers and team.
We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply and understand that not all successful candidates will meet each requirement listed.
Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We’re looking for a Talent Operations Manager to own the systems, data, and operating rhythm behind how Render hires. You’ll architect our ATS, build the reporting that Talent and hiring teams rely on, and lead process changes that help us scale without losing quality.
You’ll work closely with recruiters, recruiting coordinators, hiring managers, People leaders, and external partners. You’ll make sure our hiring data can answer the questions teams need to make better decisions.
This is a high-leverage role for someone who likes turning messy, fast-moving work into clear operating systems. You’ll help us reduce process drift, improve the candidate experience, keep hiring data trustworthy, and give the team better visibility into what is working, what is blocked, and where we need to adjust.
We value people who are practical, systems-minded, and steady when the work gets complex. The right person can zoom out to design how the system should work, then zoom in to improve the field, report, access role, or automation that is slowing the team down.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Architect how our ATS works across custom fields, access roles, interview plans, feedback forms, automations, integrations, and reporting foundations
Own the reporting layer for Talent leadership and hiring teams, including dashboards, ad hoc reporting, metric definitions, and visibility into hiring plan progress
Keep hiring data accurate and reconciled across the ATS, the hiring plan, and downstream systems so decisions get made on numbers people trust
Partner with People on job architecture, leveling, and offer consistency, and keep the ATS and People systems aligned as roles and plans change
Partner with Finance on hiring plan reconciliation and the reporting leadership uses to see where the plan stands
Turn recurring Talent Operations requests into better systems: identify patterns, improve workflows, automate repeatable work, and make the right processes self-serve
Evaluate, procure, implement, and manage tools for sourcing, scheduling, reporting, and recruiting operations
Own how our systems connect, including scoping, testing, and maintaining API-based reporting, integrations, and automations that reduce manual work for recruiters and coordinators
Lead process rollouts with clear documentation, training, adoption checks, and follow-through so changes stick
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
5+ years in recruiting, recruiting operations, talent operations, people systems, or a similar systems and data role in a high-growth environment
Deep ATS expertise, with Ashby strongly preferred. You can design how the system should work, not just maintain it, across custom fields, access roles, interview plans, automations, integrations, and reporting foundations
Strong analytical skills. You can take a vague question, decide what data would answer it, and build the report yourself
Proficient in Google Sheets or Excel. You can pull data together from multiple sources and turn the result into a case a cross-functional partner can follow
Experience owning data integrity across an ATS and the systems around it, including reconciling against a hiring plan or another source of truth
Strong program and change management skills. You can roll out a new process, teach it, measure adoption, and keep the team aligned
Clear written communication, strong documentation habits, high attention to detail, and good judgment in a fast-moving environment
NICE-TO-HAVES
Experience building or scaling a recruiting operations function at a post-Series B/C company
Experience supporting technical recruiting teams or high-volume engineering hiring
Hands-on experience with the Ashby API or ATS-based reporting
Exposure to headcount planning or headcount management systems
AI fluency, with good judgment about where AI helps, where it adds risk, and what checks are needed before others rely on the output
If this role excites you but you don’t meet every single requirement, we’d still love to hear from you—your unique experience might be just what we need.
