About the job

San Francisco (In-Office)

The Opportunity

Runbook is revolutionizing the AI operations layer for the physical economy, which encompasses 40% of the U. S. GDP driven by logistics, field services, manufacturing, energy, and other essential industries that still rely on traditional, repetitive workflows.

Founded by Obaid Khan, the visionary behind Motive, a company that achieved remarkable growth to a ~$5B valuation and over 5,000 employees, Runbook represents Obaid's second venture into transformative business. This role offers a unique opportunity to be at the forefront from day one.

We seek a Founding Sourcer to spearhead the recruitment efforts that will shape Runbook's future. Working in our downtown San Francisco office, you will collaborate closely with the founder and the founding team, managing the top of the recruitment funnel for key positions within the company.

This is not your typical sourcing position; it requires a unique mindset and approach.

This role is set in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment.

We are in build mode - act accordingly
Expect high urgency and accountability
Gain a decade's worth of experience within a single year

This position demands creativity, determination, resilience, and a strong sense of ownership.

In return, you will receive something truly exceptional: career-defining growth, unparalleled exposure, and the opportunity to help build a billion-dollar company from the ground up.

If this prospect doesn't excite you, that's perfectly fine; it may indicate that this role isn't the right fit for you.

What You’ll Do

Manage top-of-funnel sourcing for engineering, product, and go-to-market roles in a high-growth, founder-led environment
