Who We Are

Popl is defining a new category we call In-Person Go-To-Market. We help revenue teams turn real-world interactions — trade shows, conferences, field events, and meetings — into measurable pipeline and revenue. Our AI-native platform powers event lead capture, enrichment, and real-time CRM sync, transforming every badge scan into a high-quality, actionable lead.

In a world where digital channels are saturated, we're building the infrastructure that makes in-person GTM measurable, scalable, and revenue-driving. Our mission is simple: help companies around the world turn in-person events into a measurable & scalable growth channel.

About the Role

  • Partner with external recruiters and hiring partners as needed, overseeing intake, execution, and performance
  • Develop and continuously improve candidate assessment strategies, including interview frameworks, take-home assignments, and exercises that better evaluate skills and role fit
  • Elevate the overall candidate experience by creating clear, thoughtful, and engaging processes and touchpoints
  • Build and maintain a strong talent pipeline for current and future hiring needs
  • Establish and document recruiting processes, best practices, and metrics to support scale
  • Track recruiting analytics and share insights to improve hiring efficiency and quality
  • Represent Popl’s culture, values, and employer brand to candidates and the broader talent community

  • 2+ years of recruiting experience, preferably in tech startups or high-growth environments.
  • Experience managing full-cycle recruitment independently.
  • Strong sourcing skills using platforms like LinkedIn, GitHub, AngelList, or similar.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
