Klue needs you.

We believe in hiring amazing people and giving them the autonomy and resources to do their best work at Klue. We are well-funded, positioned for growth (even in this uncertain environment), and are in search of an experienced talent partner to help us continue to elevate over the next few years. What’s important to us? Our culture, ambitious folks, and an execution mindset.

Why are we looking?

Our Technical TA Partner is taking on a new adventure internationally, and we’re so excited for her! 

This means we have a rare opportunity open, and potential for you to join our small but mighty TA Team of 3 (including this role) and larger People Team. You’ll lead full-cycle hiring for our Engineering and Product Teams to support and build the future of Competitive Enablement & Win-Loss. You’ll also work to support other areas of the business with recruiting as well.

Q: Klue who?

• We’re Klue, yes, like board game, but instead of solving murder mysteries, we help teams solve why they're winning and losing and ultimately help them compete better.

• Klue is a VC backed, capital-efficient high growth SaaS company. Tiger Global and Salesforce Ventures led our US$62m Series B in the fall of 2021. We’re creating the category of competitive enablement: helping companies understand their market and outmaneuver their competition. We benefit from having an experienced leadership team working alongside several hundred risk-taking builders who elevate every day.

  • We have 4 years of runway left before we need to fundraise again

• We’re Klue and from a technical perspective, Klue’s mission is to descale huge amounts of data to the human level, so people can process it and make use of it. Klue is that trusted intermediary, right now it’s proven for sales enablement, but tomorrow it’s all teams enablement

• We acquired DoubleCheck Research in 2023 and Goldpan.ai in 2025 making us a multi-product organization that is taking on new competitive landscape of Win-Loss. 

• We’re a 4x Deloitte Technology Fast 50 & Fast 500 winner, ranked one of Canada’s Top Growing Companies by the Globe and Mail, and recipient of both the Startup of the Year and Tech Culture of the Year awards at the Technology Impact Awards.

Q: What are the responsibilities, and how will I spend my time?

• 40-50% Hiring (sourcing, recruiting, interviewing, and enabling/supporting our hiring teams)

• 30% Special Projects & AI Experimentation (you're not afraid to get your hands dirty and dig into our current processes and practices and find iterations and optimizations)

• 20% Admin (you’ll contribute and work to continue to shape Klue’s hiring engine…data, metrics, content, etc)

Q: What would you do as a Talent Acquisition Partner at Klue?

• Match the right talent to the right role at the right time

• Build strong partnerships with Hiring Managers to understand their team needs now and in the future; supporting them in those hiring goals

• Be the first window into Klue's culture and immerse, champion, and evangelize our unique company culture

• Source and fill hiring needs across all teams with high-quality top talent to enable Klue's growth and success plans

• Working closely with hiring managers to ensure they are equipped to identify and assess high-performing talent

• Expect that your role will extend past the traditional TA function (think TA+) where you’re working collaboratively and in consultation with other members of the People team and Hiring Managers to maximize the employee lifecycle journey

• You’ll advise on a wide range of issues including talent management, organizational and team member development, and project and change management.

• You’ll also mentor and advise other team members on the TA team. We’re big on feedback, working out loud and helping each other grow.

Q: Who’d be great in this role?

• You’re proven and experienced in hiring for a wide variety of technical-focused roles (software engineers, product managers, quality engineers, etc.)

• You lean technical but you have experience hiring in other areas of the business (go-to-market, finance, legal, etc)

• You’re confident in your ability to interview and analyze people's capabilities; you know what exceptional people look like

• You don’t subscribe to traditional notions of what “human resources” means—you’ll bring a collaborative, consultative, and people-first approach to this role; you leave candidates better off after each interaction

• You’re curious, quick on your feet and a natural conversationalist

• You are excited by overcoming gnarly and complex challenges; we’re building a new category and ‘status quo’ won’t cut it

• You know how to prioritize, how to spend your time, and where you can add the most value

• You react quickly to unexpected changes; always finding ways to make a meaningful impact

Q: What is our Talent Acquisition + People Team working on?

• Support intentional team growth and capacity

• Maintaining and increasing momentum on hiring goals

• Proactively improving and optimizing process - big focus on utilizing AI in all facets of our roles

• Enabling our Hiring Managers to be best in class interviewers

• Levelling up our candidate experience - we think we're doing a great job on it now but we want to continue to get better and ensure we're bringing new and diverse perspectives as our process continues to evolve

Q: What level of experience are we looking for?

• Right now we are looking for intermediate-senior level experienced Talent Acquisition. You’re experienced and have proven success in hiring top-level technical talent.

Q: What is our current tech stack?

• We mostly use Ashby, BrightHire, Sapling, Pave, and LinkedIn Recruiter.

• Note: We're open to using whatever tools make sense to get the job done and support our growth goals.

Q: Are you HYRBID FRIENDLY 🤩 ?

• Yes, we're hybrid. Best of both worlds (remote & in-office)

• Most of our Talent + People Team is located in PST. Ideally, this role would be located in Vancouver.

• You and your team will be in office at least 2 days per week.

Total compensation & benefits:

• Competitive salary and the opportunity to participate in our Employee Stock Option Plan

• Time off. Take what you need. We want the team to prioritize wellness and avoid burnout. Vacation usually falls into 3 categories: recharging, life-event, & keeping a work-life balance. Just ensure the required work gets done and clear it with your team in advance. You need to take at least two weeks off every year. The average Klue team member takes 2-4 weeks of PTO per year.

• Benefits start on day one!

• Direct access to our leadership team, including our CEO

• Be part of a high performing People team who knows how to celebrate their success!

Lastly, we take potential into consideration. An equivalent combination of education and experience may be accepted in lieu of the specifics listed above. If you know you have what it takes, even if that’s different from what we’ve described, be sure to explain why in your application.

We’ve made a commitment to support and contribute to a diverse environment; on our teams and in our community. We’re early in our journey; we've started employee led resource groups, committed to Pay Up For Progress, and use success profiles for roles instead of 'years of experience'. We continue to scale our efforts as Klue grows. We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and have dedicated that commitment to our current and future #kluecrew. During the interview process, please let us know if there is anything we need to make more accessible or accommodate to support you to be successful.

All interviews will be conducted via video calls. We work in a hybrid model of WFH (remote) and in-office. We’re excited to meet you and in the meantime, get to know us:
