We are part of the Apna Group, one of India's fastest-growing unicorns, backed by marquee investors such as Lightspeed, Tiger Global, Insight Partners, Peak XV, and others. With native access to Apna's 60M+ workforce, we deliver high-quality training data at unmatched scale and speed.

### The role

We're hiring a Talent Acquisition Associate to own end-to-end hiring across the company. This is a high-ownership, high-variety role, not a narrow recruiting function. You'll be building and running hiring pipelines across whatever roles the business needs at any given time, while also handling candidate communication, screening, and coordination.

Location: Bangalore (Work from Office - Domlur \| 6 days/week)

- Draft and send candidate communication (outreach, screening, offers, rejections).
- Coordinate interviews and assessments with internal stakeholders.
- Track pipeline status and maintain hiring trackers/spreadsheets.
- Support onboarding coordination for new hires.
- Take on ad hoc ops and GTM tasks as they come up. This role is dynamic and will expand based on what the business needs.
### What we're looking for

- Fresher or 2-4 years experience, any degree.

### What you get

- Direct exposure to founding team, GTM, and ops functions at a fast-growing Al company.
- Full autonomy and decision-making as you build trust and prove yourself.

- A clear path to eventually owning all of Talent Acquisition for Arctic Engines.
- Steep learning curve across recruiting, ops, and GTM in your first year.
- Clear path to full-time offer (PPO) based on performance over the 6-month period.
