Description
The climate crisis is the defining challenge of our time—but it’s also the greatest opportunity for innovation, and a challenge we’re proud to take on. At Overstory, we’re harnessing cutting-edge technology to enable a resilient electrical grid that keeps communities thriving as our world changes.
The grid is the backbone of life as we know it. It powers hospitals, keeps food fresh, and ensures communities stay connected. But extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and growing wildfire risks are putting this critical system under pressure. All of this combined makes the electric utility industry the greatest opportunity for tackling climate change.
One of the leading causes of catastrophic wildfires and power outages? Trees and brush coming into contact with power lines.
That’s where we help. At Overstory, we use AI and advanced satellite imagery to pinpoint and prioritize vegetation risks before they materialize. By giving utilities critical analysis on those risks, we’re helping prevent outages, reduce wildfire risks, and accelerate the transition to a safer, more resilient grid.
Our team spans the Americas and Europe, and we work with utility partners across the Americas and beyond. We’re outdoor enthusiasts, musicians, artists, athletes, parents, and adventurers. What unites us is a passion for solving complex problems, a commitment to climate action, and the belief that technology should be a force for good.
Join us to help us build a more resilient world together. The role
As a Staff Technical Recruiter at Overstory, you'll build the team that brings our mission to life. Every hire you make directly shapes the ability to execute on our goals in our growing and scaling company. This is a hands-on role with great strategic impact. You'll balance delivering excellent day-to-day recruiting operations with shipping new features that make us ready to scale.
You’ll own full-cycle recruiting for technical roles, partnering closely with hiring managers and leadership from the earliest stages of role definition through sourcing, interviewing, and closing offers. Sometimes you’ll own other roles, e.g. product or go-to-market, depending on business needs. With every role you hire for, you champion our values and attract mission-driven builders who are energized by hard problems and meaningful impact.
You'll join a People team of five, where everyone is senior, trusted, and empowered to drive decisions. Together with our other Technical Recruiter, you’ll build and refine the recruiting motion that helps us scale: from systems and data to brand and community. With a global team spread across 11 countries working remotely, you'll navigate local complexities with ease while keeping the overall candidate experience feeling unmistakably like Overstory. Together, we nurture a culture where everyone can be their best selves — building a workplace people love, and keeping the way we work simple, effective, and above all: human-centric.
