Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This Recruitment Coordinator role sits at the operational center of a SaaS company building AI infrastructure for developers and enterprises, where hiring demand often tracks product capability and go to market momentum. In that context, coordination is not just scheduling, it becomes a reliability layer across stakeholders, tooling, and candidate communication, helping the company sustain throughput without degrading experience or process quality.
For a SaaS career, the value is in learning how modern talent functions run in product led, tool heavy environments. Working inside an ATS and collaborating across teams builds fluency in data hygiene, process design, and service level expectations that carry across SaaS operators, whether the next step is recruiting, people operations, or broader business operations. Exposure to early talent and internships can also sharpen an understanding of pipeline building, employer messaging, and interview calibration, all common levers in scaling software organizations.
This role tends to suit someone who prefers structured work, clear handoffs, and measurable follow through, and who takes pride in details that others overlook. It also fits professionals who want a close view of how SaaS teams are built, and who are comfortable being the connective tissue between busy hiring managers and candidates in a remote friendly setup.

You have experience using applicant tracking systems (e.g., Lever, Greenhouse) and have working knowledge of LinkedIn Recruiter.
You like to work in a fast-paced work environment, and execute tasks thoughtfully and efficiently. You take great pride in the role that you plan in cultivating strong candidate experiences and strive to give each candidate a high-touch, positive experience with Cohere.
