ABOUT RETELL AI
Retell AI is using first-principles thinking to reimagine the call center with cutting-edge voice AI. Thousands of companies now use Retell's AI voice agents to handle sales, support, and logistics calls that once required large teams of human agents. Backed by Y Combinator, Alt Capital, and other leading investors, we've scaled to $80M in ARR with a team of 50, up from $5M at the start of 2025, and are now valued at over $1.5B.
Our vision for 2026 is to build a modern CX platform where entire contact centers are powered by AI. Instead of basic automation that needs constant human tuning, we're creating intelligent AI “workers” that act as frontline agents, QA analysts, and managers, continuously executing, monitoring, and improving every customer interaction.
We're growing fast and looking for ambitious builders who want to tackle hard technical problems, move quickly, and have a real impact on one of the fastest-growing voice AI companies in the world.
Let's build the future together.

We’re looking for a relentless outbound sourcer who approaches recruiting like a great SDR approaches pipeline.
This is not a passive recruiting or coordination role. Your job is to find exceptional candidates, get their attention, and consistently create qualified pipeline for Retell’s highest-priority roles.
You’ll use LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox, Ashby, automation, and creative research methods to reach candidates others miss. You’ll have clear weekly goals and will be measured by qualified candidates generated, response rates, conversion, and speed.

Test messaging, channels, and search strategies to improve conversion
Follow up persistently and find creative ways to engage difficult-to-reach candidates
Track outreach, responses, conversions, and pipeline health
Adjust quickly when a search or message is not producing results
Keep candidate records and sourcing data accurate in Ashby
Own results rather than waiting for direction
What We’re Looking For
At least two years of high-volume outbound sourcing, recruiting, executive search, agency recruiting, or SDR experience
A track record of hitting measurable outreach or pipeline goals
Strong candidate research and written outreach skills
Comfort working with ambitious weekly activity and conversion targets
Experience with LinkedIn Recruiter; Juicebox and Ashby experience is preferred
High urgency, persistence, and attention to detail
Ability to work independently and change direction quickly
Comfortable working full-time Pacific Time hours
How Success Is Measured
Qualified candidates added to priority pipelines
Outreach response and conversion rates
Speed in building pipeline for new roles
Accuracy and organization in Ashby
Consistent achievement of weekly sourcing goals
