Founding Recruiter

Neon
New York, NY
About Neon

Neon is a global payments and e-commerce platform designed to help game publishers earn more money and independence from app stores. We believe commerce should be open and transparent: clear decisions, actionable insights, and aligned incentives. Founded by payments, fintech and gaming veterans, Neon focuses on product and partnership excellence: we share the playbook, co-pilot decisions, and abstract away risk and complexity for our customers. We’re replacing old-school, black-box relics with clear, modern, and developer-centric infrastructure.

As an early team member, you’ll have the opportunity to shape and scale Neon’s product and culture, making a direct impact on our growth and success. You’ll join a collaborative, diverse team from world-class companies like Apple, Affirm, Unity, and Visa, backed by renowned VC's including Thrive, a16z, Griffin Gaming, Ribbit, and Renegade. If you want to build disruptive technology, challenge the status quo, and help game creators thrive on their own terms, read on.

About The Role

Neon is hiring a founding Recruiter to hire the next 50 hires, build the recruiting function, and develop Neon’s talent brand. Everything we build for our customers starts with who we hire, and that starts with you. If you love people, love gaming, and love building, we want to talk to you!

What You’ll Do:

  • Own and execute the full cycle of recruiting, from sourcing to interviewing to closing
  • Evaluate and optimize our current recruiting platform (Ashby)
  • Partner with the CEO and other leaders to develop and prioritize the hiring plan
  • Create the first hiring handbook, with templates for creating job descriptions and interview guides, plus other resources for hiring managers
  • Develop and deliver interview training to managers and interviewers, ensuring an effective and delightful interview experience across roles
  • Author v1 of Neon’s talent brand, grounded in Neon’s core values and consistent with customer-facing marketing

What We Look For:

  • 5+ years hands-on experience in full-cycle recruiting, with 1–2 years of experience creating and scaling recruiting processes
  • Demonstrated ability to coach and advise on talent strategy
  • Ability to frequently switch contexts while staying on track for goals and deadlines
  • Remarkable listening and communication skills
  • Authentic enthusiasm for putting the best people in the best jobs
  • Excited to work in-office and grow in-person teams
