Recruiter & People Operations Manager; f​/m​/d

We have reached product-market fit. Now we're scaling — not through volume, but through the right people: A-players who achieve a multiple of the output with AI tools. Your challenge: make sure exactly those people find us — and hit the ground running from day one.

Bringing AI to the Mittelstand. We build MeinGPT — the central all-in-one platform that makes AI accessible to everyone. Our main challenge: designing AI tools to be so intuitive that anyone can use AI — and focusing on making sure people actually put AI to effective use.

We founded Select Code about 9 years ago out of a school science competition. Today we are a team of 30+ and have a product of our own in its scaling phase:
MeinGPT.

We are especially proud that our approach has already won over 500 companies — including well-known brands like ZDF Studios.

We are growing, and next year we want to move a lot. Whether that succeeds depends on the people who join us. You find them: with your recruiting expertise and your eye for people, you shape our future team and develop the ways we reach the best talent. Without you, this growth won't happen.

• You own the full recruiting process: from "who do we actually need?" to a signed offer
• You screen applications and make well-reasoned yes/no decisions — based on clear criteria, not gut feeling alone
• You conduct first-round calls and case interviews — the latter always together with the relevant team and team lead, with whom you then align on your assessment
• You find the best talent actively: active sourcing on Linked In and other channels, activating referrals from the team, managing headhunters and freelance recruiters — for AI Success, Sales, Support, Marketing, and Engineering
• You collect scorecard assessments and prepare hiring decisions
• You keep the pipeline full for every open role and always know where things are stuck — and what we're doing about it
• You convince top talent that MeinGPT is the right place for them and accompany them all the way to signing

Our goal: 7–10 hires in the coming months — every one of them a genuine A-player.

You make sure new team members arrive well and the basics run smoothly:

• You design an onboarding that scales: new team members should be able to be productive from day one, feel well integrated right away, and grow quickly beyond themselves
• You handle the basics — HR documents like contract amendments and employment references, Personio, offboarding, and more
• A lot of this already runs automatically at our end — and where it can get better, we develop it further. We're excited if you bring exactly this mindset: question processes and make them smarter, rather than just executing them

Our culture is what defines us and what makes it possible for us to achieve so much together. We're looking for someone who ensures we find the right people with speed and judgment — and leaves nothing on the table.

Specifically:

• You have owned recruiting end-to-end — not just coordinated, but sourced yourself, led first-round and case interviews, and closed candidates
• You have already gained experience in a SaaS environment and filled typical SaaS roles there (e.g. Sales, Customer Success, Support, or Engineering)
• You have done real active sourcing and know what an outreach message looks like that top talent actually replies to
• You have a feel for who fits us — professionally AND personally — and are willing to take on roles outside your own domain (e.g. Engineering)
• You work AI-first: you use ChatGPT & Co. thoughtfully and reflectively in your daily work and are always looking for ways to optimize
• You communicate fluently and clearly in both German and English
