Hi! I'm Renan Peixoto, Head of Engineering at Torre. We're looking for an experienced Tech Lead to help guide our technology and shape the future of recruitment. This is your chance to be part of something big, with incredible growth opportunities as we scale.
WHAT IS TORRE?
At Torre, we're building AI recruiters who replicate human intuition. They automatically attract candidates, engage them, screen them, rank them, present them, and provide them with feedback. We analyze 100+ factors with nine types of AI to match candidates with companies, teams, and leaders. The result: we make recruiting faster, more accurate, less discriminatory, and significantly less expensive. Our end goal is to build THE matching network for work.
We offer many product lines for companies, including Torre OS and Torre Reach. You'd directly impact both.
Our motto is to make work fulfilling for everyone.
Our seed round was $20M, of which Alex Torrenegra, our founder and CEO, contributed $10M. Other investors included early investors and executives from Apple, Amazon, Meta, Space X, and TikTok.
