ElectronX™ is the first U.S.-regulated, direct access electricity derivatives market, offering financial products to address volatile short-term price exposure to electricity. With offices in Chicago and New York City, ElectronX is building the missing financial infrastructure and risk management tools necessary to smooth the path for U.S. energy production, diversification and grid expansion in a time of rapidly increasing power demand.ElectronX is a venture capital-backed startup supported by premier VC partners including Innovation Endeavors, Systemiq Capital, Equinor Ventures, Shell Ventures LLC, DCVC, Amplo, BoxGroup and Lightning Capital.
Who are we looking for?
As a fast-growing company in the highly competitive, quantitative capital markets industry, ElectronX values candidates who are resourceful, curious and adaptable to change. Our cultural focus on innovation requires collaborative and entrepreneurial teammates with the intellectual grit necessary for near- and long-term success.
Why this Role
You’ll be the first recruiter at a 25-person company on track to triple in size over the next three years. This isn’t a support role , you’ll own it all. From building the hiring engine and shaping process, to running complex technical searches and advising leadership, you’ll see your work directly shape how ElectronX grows.
The majority of your focus will be technical recruiting for engineers building electronic trading and clearing systems, and low-latency platforms at the core of the exchange. Alongside that, you’ll also lead searches in commercial and market operations, giving you exposure to every function that drives the business.
It’s a rare chance to build from the ground up in a company that moves fast, values precision, and is scaling threefold. You’ll have full visibility, direct access to decision-makers, and real career runway to grow within recruiting or into broader people leadership as the team expands.
The Role
Own full-cycle recruiting across the firm with a tech-first focus. Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, build structured interview plans, maintain active pipelines for priority needs, and deliver a best-in‑class candidate experience with clear reporting that enables timely decisions. You’ll design the hiring engine that supports 3× headcount growth and, as the team scales, you can deepen as a senior IC, step into a lead/manager path, or explore adjacent people programs.
What does ElectronX offer?
Health, vision and dental insurance
401K
Supplemental health and disability insurance
Unlimited vacation
Flex-work
Job Responsibilities
Lead end-to-end searches across engineering as the primary focus, and support commercial, market operations, and select G&A roles as needed

Maintain ATS accuracy and produce funnel metrics and insights leaders can act on
Drive timely, consistent communication with candidates from first touch through offer and onboarding
Partner on workforce planning, market mapping, and competitor intelligence
Represent ElectronX in the market and support targeted employer‑brand efforts
Qualifications
3–5 years of recruiting experience with a strong technical sourcing foundation
A record of closing competitive technical and specialized roles
Process mindset, clear communication, reliable follow‑through, and data‑informed decisions
Comfort advising leadership and managing multiple searches at once
Enjoy switching contexts between engineering and commercial/ops searches
