Vannevar Labs supports people on the front lines by building tools that deter and de-escalate conflict with America's adversaries. We build software and hardware for this mission that enable our customers to maintain maritime vigilance, disrupt misinformation, and collect non-traditional intelligence. In strategic competition, the intelligence and actions that shape conflict occur well before war itself. We build tools to win this fight now.
This mission has become urgent. The US and our allies are fighting a war of deterrence with woefully outdated technology. As a team, we believe in public service and that our democracy and government improve only if we put serious, collective effort into improving them, including the technology our government uses.
Since our founding in 2019, we have grown to support a wide range of missions and capabilities across all U.S. service branches, multiple combatant commands, partner nations, and the intelligence community. We have been profitable since 2021, and are backed by investors including General Catalyst, DFJ Growth, Point72, Costanoa, and Felicis.
About the role
Defense startups are unique in that a small number of highly qualified individuals can make a disproportionate impact on the business, not just in leadership roles but also in engineering and customer-facing roles. The sourcing and recruitment process often takes creativity to find and close these great candidates, and out-of-the-box thinking is highly encouraged. Specifically, you will help hunt for and bring in top performers for key growth roles on the Mission team. The The Mission team is the growth and strategy team at Vannevar and its members drive our revenue. The roles you’d be recruiting for are things like Mission Development (our BD team), Mission Success (our customer success team), Strategy, and Capture. These hires are critical to scaling Vannevar Labs.
We’re a small team of ~160 mission-driven people. We’re highly motivated to help improve the tech available to solve national security issues, and we’re looking for people who are similarly motivated. By joining our small but mighty team, you’ll have a chance to have outsized influence on the process, culture, and norms for recruiting at Vannevar Labs and help us serve our important national security mission.

- 3+ years of recruiting experience for a tech or high growth start-up
- 2+ years of recruiting in the defense industry or an adjacent industry
- Full lifecycle recruiting experience, including various interview formats and methodologies
- Experience working with recruiting tools, including ATS tools, resume databases, internet sourcing tools, and spreadsheets
- Creative strategic sourcing experience
