<div class="content-intro"><h3>Who We Are</h3> At Pave, we're building the industry’s leading compensation platform, combining the world's largest real-time compensation dataset with deep expertise in AI and machine learning. Our platform is perfecting the art and science of pay to give 8,500+ companies unparalleled confidence in every compensation decision.

We’ve raised $160M in funding from leading investors like Andreessen Horowitz, Index Ventures, Y Combinator, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Craft Ventures.</div><h3>The Recruiting Team @ Pave</h3> Pave is opening its first engineering office outside of the US, and we're looking for a recruiter to help us build it. This is a founding role in the truest sense — you will be the first dedicated recruiter on the ground in Krakow, shaping how we show up as an employer in the Polish market and helping us hire the engineers who will define the office's culture and trajectory. You won't be working from a fully established playbook; you'll be helping write it. If you want to own a recruiting function rather than execute within one, this is the role. Day-to-day, you'll run full-cycle recruiting for engineering roles and support hiring across other functions as we scale. You'll partner closely with hiring managers in Krakow and the US, manage candidate pipelines, and make sure every candidate has a great experience — whether or not they get an offer. <h3>What You'll Do</h3> <ul> <li>Own full-cycle recruiting for engineering and non-engineering roles in the Krakow office</li> <li>Source and engage passive candidates through LinkedIn, local networks, and other creative channels</li> <li>Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, calibrate on candidates, and move quickly on strong profiles</li> <li>Manage candidate experience end-to-end — clear communication, timely feedback, and a process that reflects well on Pave</li> <li>Help build and document recruiting processes, tooling, and workflows as the office scales</li> <li>Work alongside or manage relationships with external agencies where needed</li> <li>Occasionally support office and event coordination as the Krakow team grows — helping organize team gatherings, offsites, or office logistics on an as-needed basis</li> <li>Own the closing process for high caliber candidates while selling Pave’s mission</li> </ul> <h3>What You'll Bring</h3> <ul> <li>5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience</li> <li>Strong sourcing skills — comfortable going beyond inbound and finding candidates who aren't actively looking</li> <li>Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills</li> <li>Fluent in Polish and English</li> <li>Based in or willing to work from Krakow</li> <li>Experience with Greenhouse, Gem, LinkedIn Recruiter & Modernloop (bonus!)</li> </ul> <h3>Compensation, It's What We Do.</h3> At Pave, we believe compensation should be as thoughtful as the people we hire. This role is structured as a B2B contract engagement — and your total rewards package includes meaningful equity, flexible PTO, and region-specific benefits designed around your life, not just your role. Your level and compensation are determined by your experience and how you show up throughout the interview process. We're always happy to walk you through how we think about leveling — just ask.   <h3>Benefits @ Pave</h3> At Pave, growth isn't a perk — it's the point. As you develop, your role expands, your responsibilities deepen, and your compensation reflects the impact you're making. We offer a monthly stipend to cover: <ul class="[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Private Health Coverage: Comprehensive private healthcare to keep you and your wellbeing a priority — because great work starts with taking care of yourself.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Sports & Wellness: A monthly wellness stipend to fuel your active lifestyle — whether that's a MultiSport membership or whatever keeps you moving.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Life & Disability Protection: Life, AD&D, and permanent disability coverage so you and your family are protected when it matters most.</li> <li>Room to Keep Growing: A quarterly education stipend to invest in the skills and knowledge that matter most to you.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Retirement Program: Monthly retirement contributions to help you build the kind of long-term financial security that lets you focus on the work in front of you.</li> </ul> What comes with working at Pave: <ul class="[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Time That's Actually Yours: Flexible PTO to rest, recharge, and show up as your best self — no counting days, no guilt.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Work From Anywhere: The freedom to work from anywhere in the world for a full month each year, because life doesn't pause and neither should you.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Equipment: Top-of-the-line Pave hardware waiting for you on day one — no setup anxiety, just hit the ground running. </li> </ul><div class="content-conclusion"><h3>Life @ Pave </h3> Founded in 2019 with a clear purpose and a team that has never wavered from it, Pave has grown into a global force in compensation management — giving thousands of companies the tools to take control, build confidence, and earn credibility in every pay decision they make. And we're just getting started. Headquartered in San Francisco's Financial District, with regional hubs in New York City's Flatiron District, Salt Lake City, Kraków (Poland), and the United Kingdom — wherever you're based, you'll find the same thing: people who genuinely care about the work, each other, and the customers that rely on Pave. We run a hybrid culture that brings teams together in person 3 to 4 days a week — and every Friday, the whole company gathers for our Team Sync: breakfast, new hire welcomes, product updates, fireside chats, and yes, the occasional Kahoot. It's one of the things people notice when they join us — that we truly enjoy spending time together. Our culture is shaped by five values we live every day: <ul class="[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Be Intellectually Honest — Truth over comfort. We face reality clearly and speak directly, even when it's hard.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Play to Win — We're not here to participate. We're here to be the #1 compensation platform in the world, and we act like it.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Uphold the Pave Platinum Standard — We hold ourselves to the highest bar — for our customers, our data, and each other.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">One Team — We win and lose together. Titles don't drive decisions here — shared goals do.</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Hug of Jawn — Hard to define, impossible to miss. Ask your recruiter.</li> </ul> Our Vision: Unlock a labor market built on trust. Our Mission: Build confidence in every compensation decision. We build software that transforms how companies pay their people — and we believe the team behind that software deserves the same thoughtfulness. If you're ready to help shape the future of compensation alongside people who are smart, humble, and genuinely motivated by the problem we're solving, we'd love to meet you. Still deliberating? Just apply! We're always excited to meet people who are eager to contribute.</div>
