About the Company: General Matter enriches uranium. We are designing, building, and operating the world’s lowest-cost enrichment services, here in the US. In the process, we are restoring America’s ability to produce nuclear fuel to power AI, advanced manufacturing and critical industries our country relies on to remain competitive.

Fuel drives the cost of advanced reactor electricity production, and enrichment drives the cost of the fuel that advanced reactors consume. Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way. Our mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable.

We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society. We were incubated inside Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by over a dozen of the world's top venture capital firms. Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.

We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency. Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable.

About The Role

: General Matter is hiring a tenacious recruiter to help build the workforce behind the world’s most modern enrichment facility in Paducah, Kentucky. This role will own full-cycle recruiting across technical, skilled trades, operations, manufacturing, construction, and facility buildout roles while also helping develop the long-term talent pipelines needed to support one of the most ambitious industrial projects in the country. This is a unique opportunity to join a lean, high-impact recruiting team at a critical stage of growth.

You will partner closely with hiring managers, operations leaders, and community stakeholders to identify, attract, assess, and close exceptional talent. You will also help build the external relationships that makes growth possible, including partnerships with trade schools, technical colleges, universities, workforce development organizations, and local community groups. This role requires both strategic judgment and operational intensity.

We are hiring at high volume, and we need someone who can scale recruiting without making candidates feel like a number: tracking pipeline health, maintaining clean systems, identifying bottlenecks, driving processes forward with urgency and precision, and ensuring every candidate receives clear communication, thoughtful engagement, and a positive impression of General Matter throughout the process. The team is highly collaborative, operates with integrity, and is deeply committed to bringing nuclear fuel enrichment back to US soil. If you enjoy Skunkworks-style projects, value autonomy and ownership, and are passionate about building world-class teams, we'd love to hear from you.

We are open to multiple experience levels for the role. We care about capability, drive, and impact more than years of experience. Scope and responsibility will commensurate with experience.

Responsibilities

: Own the full-cycle recruitment process for technical and operational roles, from intake to closing. Act as a key business partner to leaders and hiring managers by providing market insights, rapidly calibrating on top talent, and refining interview processes to drive successful hiring outcomes. Conduct thorough initial interviews that assess ability, excellence, and cultural alignment while delivering a positive candidate experience and strong interview-to-offer outcomes.

Build and maintain high-volume recruiting pipelines, tracking hiring progress as an operation and using metrics to identify bottlenecks, improve conversion, and drive consistent execution.
