Tin Can

About Tin Can

Tin Can is a screen-free phone for kids that gives them the independence to call friends and family—without giving them a smartphone. Built like a modern landline, Tin Can connects over Wi-Fi and uses a simple mobile app for parents to control who can call in and out. There’s no browser, no app store, no camera, no spam—just voice. It’s a safer, saner way for kids to communicate and gain a bit of freedom without the baggage of adult tech. We believe that real connection doesn’t require a screen. And that childhood is better when it’s full of imagination, not notifications. Tin Can started in one neighborhood in Seattle, where we hand-installed 40 early prototypes and watched them spread by word of mouth. Now, Tin Can is being used by kids in over 30 states—with no marketing, no paid ads, just families telling other families. We’re growing fast, and so is the movement of parents looking for a better way to let their kids be independent, without handing over the internet in their pocket. Our newest Tin Can is fully custom hardware, designed from the ground up to be beautifully simple. It works out of the box, connects through our app, and comes with smart features like emergency calling, quiet hours, and a free Can2Can plan that lets any two Tin Cans call each other with no subscription required. Tin Can is built for the 4–13 age range—when kids are old enough to want a phone, but not quite old enough to manage one. We’re on a mission to bring back the freedom of the old-school landline, updated for today’s families.

Job description

About Tin Can

At Tin Can, we’re giving kids the freedom and social independence we had growing up - without smartphones. We build thoughtfully designed products that help families stay connected while protecting childhood. We’re a growing, VC-backed team with strong product-market fit and big ambitions ahead.

As we scale, we’re looking for a Contract Recruiter to help us hire exceptional talent who are excited to build products with real-world impact.

The Role

This is a hands-on, end-to-end recruiting role responsible for owning the full hiring lifecycle for all positions across Tin Can. You’ll partner closely with hiring managers to understand needs, source and engage candidates, manage interview processes, and close hires while delivering a thoughtful, candidate-first experience.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-moving startup environments and is comfortable with ambiguity.

What You’ll Do

Own full-cycle recruiting for all roles - from Customer Experience to Software Engineers and beyond!
Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements and ideal candidate profiles
Proactively source candidates through LinkedIn, networks, referrals, and creative outreach strategies
Screen candidates for experience and alignment with Tin Can’s mission and values
Coordinate and manage interview loops, feedback collection, and candidate communication
Ensure a high-quality, inclusive, and timely candidate experience from first touch to offer
Support offer development, closing conversations, and handoff to onboarding
Track recruiting metrics and maintain accurate records in our ATS (Ashby)
Continuously improve recruiting processes, templates, and sourcing strategies as we scale

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of experience as a recruiter, including full-cycle ownership
Experience recruiting in startup or high-growth environments
Strong sourcing skills and comfort engaging passive candidates
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to manage multiple roles and priorities without sacrificing quality
Collaborative, self-directed, and comfortable operating with limited structure
Experience working as a contractor or in fractional recruiting roles is a plus
