This is an internal role at Weekday. Not a role by a client.

• Role type: Full time

• Location: Remote and/or Bangalore

• Working days: Monday–Saturday

• Working with: Founders (mostly CEO & COO)

Weekday is an AI-native recruiting platform. We are backed by Y Combinator and Venture Highway (now General Catalyst). We have built the largest white-collar talent database in India and have built tools to run outbound recruiting campaigns to them.

About the role

We're a recruiting company. That means the bar for how we hire our own team is higher, not lower. If our own hiring is slow or sloppy, we have no business selling hiring to anyone else.

This role owns both halves of people at Weekday: bringing the right people in, and building the place they want to stay. Roughly half your time goes into talent acquisition — planning hiring with the founders, running pipelines, closing senior candidates. The other half goes into HR — policies, performance, compensation, engagement, compliance — for a team of around 50–70 people that keeps growing.





There is no HR department waiting for you. There is some process, some of it valuable, much of it built on the fly. You'll decide what to keep, what to fix, and what to build from scratch. You'll do the work yourself before you hire anyone to do it for you.

What you'll actually do

On any given day you might be:

• Working with the founders on the hiring plan and owning it: which roles, in what order, at what bar

• Running senior and hard-to-fill hires yourself — sourcing on the Weekday platform, pitching, closing, negotiating

• Setting up the hiring machine: scorecards, interview loops, work trials, and a candidate experience we'd be proud to show customers

• Designing and running performance reviews, goal-setting, and feedback cycles that people actually take seriously

• Building the basics properly: policies, compensation bands, leave, payroll, and labour-law compliance

• Owning onboarding, engagement, and retention — and r
