Senior/Principal GTM Recruiter (Founding role)

San Francisco

About Pallet 

Pallet is building AI Agents to transform logistics, a $12T global industry. Backed by General Catalyst, Bessemer, and Bain Capital, we’ve raised $50M and achieved 700% revenue growth in under two years.

Our mission is to automate the manual workflows that slow logistics teams down — from scheduling to data entry and load management. Our flagship platform powers end-to-end operations, and our newest product, CoPallet, introduces AI Agents that execute real workflows in real time.

As logistics providers adopt generative AI, Pallet is leading the next wave of automation, with the vision to build the next $10B company in logistics. Join leaders from Google, DoorDash, and YC to shape the future of logistics tech.

You could be a Senior GTM Recruiter anywhere - why choose us?

About the opportunity:

Pallet is hiring our first Go-To-Market Recruiter, a rare role with true 0→1 ownership.

Form CC-305

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
