Job Description

Amca is building airplanes for the 21st century, starting by designing new hardware that flies on today’s planes. Aviation was once humanity’s boldest ambition, but the industry hasn’t successfully built a new plane in 40 years. We don’t think it has to be this way.

  • Candidate Experience: Act as a trusted advisor and advocate for every candidate, providing transparent communication, timely feedback, and a thoughtful experience that reflects Amca's values and brand.

  • Data & Reporting: Maintain accurate records in our applicant tracking system, Greenhouse - track key recruiting metrics such as time-to-fill, pass-through rates, and source effectiveness, and use data to continuously improve hiring outcomes.

  • Talent Branding: Support Amca's branding across job postings, career page content, social media presence, and participation in hiring events.
