About AdAstra Talent Advisors

AdAstra builds exceptional teams for frontier hard tech companies across space, climate, defense, and embodied AIWe operate in complex, high-stakes hiring environments and win by deeply understanding talent, market dynamics, and what great actually looks like.

This is not high-volume recruiting. It's precision search.

We run on EOS, hold a high bar, and expect a lot from each other.

The work is demanding, fast-paced, and deeply meaningful.

The Role

We are hiring a Talent Advisor who can step in and perform immediately.

This is not a training role.

You will own your desk: your searches, your strategy, and your outcomes. You are expected to operate with autonomy, urgency, and strong judgment from day one.

You are not an order taker. You are a true advisor. You will work directly with founders and technical leaders to shape hiring decisions that materially impact their companies and the entire planet.

This role is for operators who move fast, take ownership, and hold a high personal standard.

If you need consistent direction or external motivation to perform, this will not be the right environment.
