About the role
About Lightfield Lightfield is an AI-native CRM that assembles itself from your email, calendar, and meetings. It captures every interaction and turns it into organized context: accounts, tasks, follow-ups, and insights, so nothing slips through the cracks. We’re rethinking CRM from first principles. Instead of forcing teams to maintain rigid systems, Lightfield learns from how companies actually work, adapting, automating, and surfacing the insight that drives growth. We’re building the CRM platform we always wished existed: fast, intelligent, and genuinely helpful. We are backed by Greylock, Lightspeed, and Coatue, and our founders previously built Tome, a generative AI presentation product used by over 25 million people. Before Lightfield, our team worked on Llama, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Pinterest, Google, and Salesforce.
About
The Role Lightfield is reinventing CRM from the ground up. Our success hinges on assembling a world‑class engineering and design organization. Reporting directly to the CEO, you will own every dimension of recruiting—with one clear KPI: hire exceptional engineers who raise the bar for everyone else. You’ll design the talent strategy, build the playbook, and close the caliber of people who make 10× outcomes possible at an early‑stage startup. What You’ll Own End‑to‑end recruitment for engineering, design, and business—from perfecting the pitch to closing top‑tier ML, infra, and product engineers. Talent strategy & employer brand—define what “great” looks like at Lightfield, craft compelling narratives, and position us as the place that uncompromising builders want to work. Sourcing engine from zero → one—stand up repeatable, data‑driven pipelines across outbound, referrals, events, and community engagement. Process architecture—implement enough tooling and process across the ATS and communication channels to make sure that we never drop the ball with a great candidate. Candidate experience—run a crisp, respectful process that converts skeptics into champions, whether or not we hire them. Leadership partnership—coach hiring managers on calibration, interviewing, and closing; provide weekly insight on funnel health and time‑to‑hire.
