Fixing our K-12 education system is a civilizationally-important problem. We believe that all of our problems — including the ones that dominate the headlines — are downstream of education.
We have a simple thesis on how to solve it: empower 1,000's of educators to launch microschools in their communities.
We believe the historical tradeoff between price (tuition) and quality is a false dichotomy.
PrimerOS automates and eliminates much of the costs of traditional schools. Microschools have a structural advantage — asset-light real estate — which means much lower capex and opex. You put it together, and you get something that's never existed before: a world-class education that's accessible to normal American families and can rapidly scale.
We’re hiring for our first Internal Recruiter at Primer.
This role will be the force behind our hiring engine — owning sourcing, candidate experience, and closing across all teams at Primer. You’ll help us source exceptional talent for every team at Primer, from education to engineering.
This is explicitly not a formulaic recruiting role. You won’t spend your days recruiting your 117th engineer and 29th designer. We’re solving problems that have never been solved before and have a near-constant need for niche talent.
You’ll need to spike on both the people-facing art of recruiting and the behind-the-scenes systems required to build and scale a great recruiting engine.
If you’re the type of person who loves the hunt, the type of person for whom a phenomenal interview will make your week, and the type of person who obsesses on getting that last sentence just right on an outbound email campaign — we’d love to meet you.
Own end-to-end recruiting across key roles at Primer — from sourcing to close — with a focus on quality, speed, and candidate experience.
Partner closely with hiring managers across teams (education, operations, engineering, product, finance, and more) to understand their needs and build strong pipelines of exceptional candidates.
Build and maintain candidate outreach strategies — including cold sourcing, passive engagement, and creative ways to reach new talent pools.
Manage our internal hiring infrastructure, ensuring every candidate moves through a clear, well-structured process.
Quickly ramp up on new roles and lead first-round screening calls for teams across the company.
Represent Primer to candidates with professionalism, clarity, and excitement about our mission — you’ll almost always be their first impression of our team.
Track and report on recruiting progress and metrics to the leadership team, ensuring we’re constantly improving with each new search.
Experience in a full-cycle recruiting or talent acquisition role, ideally in a fast-paced, high-growth startup.
Proven success sourcing and hiring for a range of roles, from individual contributors to leadership positions across many teams.
Strong communication skills, with the ability to build trust with both candidates and the internal team.
High agency + high organizational skills — you’ll need to manage multiple searches and deliver an exceptional candidate experience.
