## About Clera

## About the role

##### About the Role

This is a high-trust, early-stage role at a fast-moving AI infrastructure startup building the go-to platform for reinforcement learning environments and post-training data. As Growth Lead, you will own recruiting, culture, and community from the ground up, acting as a key storyteller and connector across the frontier AI ecosystem. The work you do here will directly shape who joins the team and how the company is known in the world.

##### What You'll Do

- Craft and communicate a compelling company narrative to get the right people excited about the mission.

- Source, engage, and build relationships with candidates, AI researchers, and key players across the RL and broader AI ecosystem.

- Define company culture and values, then translate them into a structured candidate screening and new-hire onboarding process.

- Own end-to-end recruiting operations, including building systems, tooling, and automated workflows in partnership with the Chief of Staff.

- Collaborate with the marketing and events function to host community gatherings and represent the company at industry events.

- Work with go-to-market engineers to map and establish connection pathways into high-priority leads and partners.

- Create content that supports both recruiting and community engagement efforts.

##### What We're Looking For

- 3 to 8 years of experience in recruiting, community building, business development, or a closely related function at an early-stage startup.

- Demonstrated ability to own end-to-end recruiting processes and optimize recruiting systems and automated workflows.

- Hands-on experience defining company culture and values and building new-hire onboarding programs.

- Proven track record of finding and engaging individuals in technical communities, whether through recruiting, ecosystem building, or GTM work.

- Experience hosting community or industry events and creating content for marketing or engagement purposes.

- Strong interpersonal skills: outgoing, well-spoken, and skilled at reading people and building trust quickly.

- Ability to understand complex technical products well enough to explain them simply and accurately, particularly in the AI or ML space.

- Genuine interest in frontier AI, reinforcement learning, and the broader AI research community.

- An established network within RL research, RL engineering, or startup communities is a strong plus.

- A portfolio of professional writing that demonstrates clarity and narrative skill.

##### Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: **$100,000 to $150,000 USD annually.** Visa sponsorship is available.

##### Location

On-site in **San Francisco, CA, United States.**
