Join the Sleep Fitness Movement

At Eight Sleep, we’re on a mission to fuel human potential through optimal sleep. As the world’s first sleep fitness company, we’re redefining what it means to be well-rested and building the most advanced hardware, software, and AI technology to make it possible. Our products power peak mental, physical, and emotional performance by transforming every night of sleep into a personalized, data-driven recovery experience.

We are trusted by high performers, professional athletes, and health-conscious consumers in over 30 countries worldwide. Recognized as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in 2019, 2022, and 2023, 2026 and twice named to TIME's “Best Inventions of the Year.” We operate like a high-performance team: fast, focused, and motivated by impact. We don’t just ship; we iterate, refine, and obsess over the details that help our members sleep better and wake up stronger.

Every role at Eight Sleep is a chance to create cutting-edge technology, collaborate with world-class talent, and help shape a future where sleep isn’t passive - it’s a powerful tool for living better. If you’re tired of the ordinary and driven to build at the edge of what’s possible, this is your moment. Join us and lead the movement that’s transforming how the world sleeps and what we’re all capable of when we wake up.

We operate with intensity because our mission demands it. At Eight Sleep, we bring the same mindset as the world’s top performers: focused, relentless, and always pushing to be in the top 1% of our craft. Think Kobe Bryant’s mamba mentality, applied to bold ideas, next-gen tech, and flawless execution. This isn’t a 9-to-5. Our team is deeply committed, often putting in 60+ hours a week –not because we’re told to, but because we’re invested.

We’re here to build fast, push limits, and deliver without compromise. If you thrive under pressure and want to do the most meaningful work of your career, you’ll feel right  you’re looking for something easier –this isn’t it.

We're looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist to own end-to-end hiring for a portfolio of critical roles across Eight Sleep. You'll act as an internal headhunter, proactively sourcing, engaging, and closing top talent rather than waiting on inbound applications. You'll partner closely with hiring managers to build and manage pipelines, run a sharp interview process, and help us scale the teams that power our growth.

Your job is to keep the pipeline full, the process fast, and the bar high.

• Advise Hiring Managers: Partner closely with managers to sharply scope roles, unblock bottlenecks, and drive a seamless interview cadence

• Maintain a High Talent Bar: Assess candidates rigorously to ensure every single hire meets the company’s strict standards and culture fit

• Data-Driven Mindset: Create and maintain metrics dashboards tracking the health of the hiring process to keep leadership continuously informed on pipeline velocity and conversion rates

• Process Optimization: Continuously upgrade recruiting workflows on our ATS (Ashby) to make hiring faster, more scalable, and highly consistent

• 2–5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally in a high-growth startup, D2C, or tech environment
