About the role
Nearly $900B is spent on recruiting every year and the process is still broken. Paraform is building the global talent infrastructure where companies come to fill their most critical roles. Through every search, placement, and interaction on our platform, we capture proprietary hiring data that no one else has at scale, and that data powers the agentic systems we're building to make hiring faster, smarter, and more precise. We believe AI will create more jobs, not less. As companies move faster with fewer constraints, they'll hire more ambitiously and for roles that didn't exist before, making the hiring layer more critical than ever.
The Role
We have 15 engineers and $80M in ARR. That ratio is intentional. Every engineer at Paraform plays a massive role in shaping the direction of the business.
We're hiring a Software Engineer to work on our marketplace, the core of how Paraform connects companies with recruiters and candidates. You'll work closely with our marketplace product lead, shipping features that directly impact hiring manager experience, recruiter activation, and hiring outcomes.
What You’ll Work On
Our marketplace is what makes Paraform work. You'll be building the systems and experiences that drive both sides of it:
- User behavior and engagement: Understand user psychology and use it to shape how recruiters and hiring managers interact with the platform
- Recruiter supply growth: Build the systems that bring new recruiters onto the platform, ramp them up quickly, and keep the quality bar high
- Recruiter performance and incentives: Payments, incentive systems, and performance tooling that help recruiters do their best work on the platform
- Role distribution: Ensure every open role on the platform gets the attention it deserves by balancing recruiter activity across the marketplace
- Automation: Identify and automate manual processes that slow down recruiters, hiring managers, and internal operations
