Head of Recruiting - San Francisco MuleSoft

We're a fast growing, well funded technology company and we're looking for a superstar to fill the most important position in our company â€" finding and attracting top talent. As we continue to rapidly grow, our success is predicated on our hiring success and we need a recruiting leader who wants to help us build an awesome company.
It is critical that we are well aligned on hiring and management philosophy. Which of these philosophies do you resonate with best?
A) Companies are most successful by hiring candidates with deep skills and experience which match the job requirements. Management's responsibility is to clearly assign tasks to employees and to hold employees accountable for delivering against the assignments. Morale and initiative is enhanced by providing well-defined career paths as well as ample perks and motivational activities.
or
B) Companies are most successful by hiring brilliant go-getters with strong track records of performance, even if there are gaps in experience or skills. Management's responsibility is to provide context for the high level company objectives, to encourage everyone to be an “ownerâ€, knowing that smart, passionate owners will make good things happen. Morale and initiative are highest when people know that they are having a large impact and are working with a team of superstar colleagues.
If you picked (B), great, this may be a good fit. If you picked (A), this is not a fit for you. Our philosophies must be fully aligned for this to work.
Talents you'll need to be successful:

• Be consistently one of the most enthusiastic people around.
• Love to “sell†the company, which is technical in nature, to engineering, sales and marketing candidates.
• Have an “it's my company' instead of 'it's my job†mentality and a 24/7 always-on work ethic to bring in top talent.
• Be someone who can scan a pile of resumes and quickly identify the stars.
• Be willing to poke and prod hiring managers (and they won't mind because they know you're helping them be most successful).
• Be smart, strategic, highly organized and a joy to work with

The ideal candidate will have top academic credentials and a clear track record of success and career growth.
This position will report directly to the CEO and you will work with the executive team daily.
