About Arsenal Pulse

Arsenal Pulse partners with mission driven companies across defense, aerospace, energy, robotics, and advanced manufacturing to fill the roles that matter most. Founded by Mike Moriarty and Geo Saba, our team brings experience from SpaceX, Anduril, Palantir, Google, and more. We focus on precision over volume, building trusted partnerships that help our clients find the people who build hard things.

About the Role

We're looking for a Recruiter to join our team and support our Contained Search and Contingent (The Pulse) engagements. You'll own searches from kickoff through close, partner directly with client stakeholders, and help candidates find roles where they'll thrive. This role is a great fit for someone who loves the pace of agency recruiting and wants to make a real impact at a growing firm.

What matters most is strong agency and small tech start up experience and a track record of recruiting for tech, startup, or VC backed companies in Defense, aerospace, robotics, manufacturing, autonomous flight exposure, or things of the like. We do not want someone that comes from big tech primes.

• Share market insights with clients on talent availability, compensation trends, and competitive landscape
