Recruiter

Location: Downtown Austin, TX or Old Town Scottsdale, AZ (In-Office)
Type: Full-time
Compensation: $80,000 - $150,000 (subject to qualifications and experience) + equity + premium benefits

Let’s be honest: at most companies, “recruiting” means shuffling resumes, scheduling calls, and pushing candidates through a funnel. Not here.

At Files.com, recruiting is the single most important responsibility in the business. Our Recruiters don’t just manage process—they shape the future of the company. They are trusted advisors, decision-shapers, and closers. Every search is run with rigor and precision. Every candidate journey is managed with care and respect. Every hire moves the company forward in a meaningful way.

We don’t measure success by how many interviews you schedule or how many offers you extend. We measure success by the quality of the people who join, the impact they make, and the fact that they’re still thriving a year later. Our Recruiters are the guardians of that standard. They filter rigorously, they push every stage of the process to cut deeper, and they refine constantly so that every hire strengthens Files.com for the long term.

If you want to practice recruiting as a craft—not coordination—this is the role.

Who We Are

We’re Files.com, a profitable, founder-led SaaS company powering secure file transfer and automation for 4,000+ brands you know: Marc Jacobs, GrubHub, Michelin, Hot Topic, Stamps.com, Planet Fitness, KFC, and more.

We’ve built a $35M+ business with just 70 people by hiring smart, disciplined, high-output teammates who act fast and own outcomes. Backed by $46.5M from Riverwood Capital, we’re scaling intentionally—and this role is central to that growth.

Our Austin and Scottsdale offices are hubs for collaboration and culture. In Scottsdale, you’ll work from a gorgeous, spacious office in the heart of Old Town with huge windows ☀️, craft coffee ☕️, free drinks, and free catered breakfast every day —plus unbeatable access to the best lunch and happy hour spots in the city.

In Austin, our downtown location keeps you right in the action, close to the city’s best restaurants, music, and energy. Our space offers a beautiful 26th floor roof deck ☀️, craft coffee ☕️, free drinks, and free catered lunch every day.

Twice a year, we bring the whole company together for energizing off-sites in cities like Nashville, Miami, and New York.
