24 Govsignals Jobs Hiring Near You

We are shaping the future of government contracting with breakthrough AI-driven solutions. We are disrupting a multi-billion dollar industry and enabling private sector technologies to secure government contracts faster than ever, strengthening national security and driving economic growth.

GovSignals has built the most advanced government contracting AI platform available. From Fortune 500 enterprises to government agencies, our platform multiplies the opportunities contractors can pursue and empowers them to deliver fully compliant, winning proposals in hours instead of months. As one of the largest aggregators of U.S. government data, we set trends rather than follow them.

We are looking for our first Recruiting Lead who will build and own GovSignals' talent acquisition function from the ground up. This person will partner directly with the CEO and leadership team to attract, evaluate, and close exceptional talent across every function as we scale rapidly through our next phase of growth.

The ideal candidate has a proven track record of hiring high-caliber people at startups, thrives in ambiguity, and understands that recruiting is both an art and a science. You will design our hiring processes, develop sourcing strategies, and personally close candidates who will shape the trajectory of the company. This is a player-builder role-you will recruit directly while simultaneously building the systems and eventually the team to scale our hiring capacity.
