GTM Recruiter

About Nominal Nominal is building the connected test and operations platform powering the world’s most advanced hardware systems, from spacecraft and autonomous vehicles to next-generation defense programs. Our platform gives hardware engineering teams a single place to ingest data, analyze performance, automate test execution, and collaborate across every phase of development so they can move faster without sacrificing safety or precision. We are a fast-moving team that owns problems end to end, works across disciplines, and thrives at the intersection of hardware and software. We serve top-tier commercial and defense customers including autonomy leaders like Anduril and Shield AI, next-generation aerospace teams such as Hermeus and REGENT, and performance engineering teams like Pratt Miller Motorsports. We also partner with mission teams within the U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force on programs where failure is not an option. Nominal is backed by Sequoia, General Catalyst, Founders Fund, Lux Capital, and Lightspeed. Our team includes people from SpaceX, Palantir, Anduril, Applied Intuition, and other leading companies, united by a common mission: giving hardware engineers the tools to build the future with speed, safety, and confidence. Building a team like this doesn’t happen by accident—it requires exceptional recruiting and a deeply thoughtful candidate experience. That’s why recruiting is a first-class function at Nominal. As a GTM Recruiter at Nominal, you’ll partner closely with leaders across the company to build talent pipelines, run thoughtful full-cycle recruiting processes, and help close exceptional candidates for critical commercial roles. You’ll manage hiring for roles including Enterprise Account Executives and SDRs, while also supporting recruiting across the company as needed as Nominal continues to scale. These roles are central to building Nominal’s commercial engine and require strong sourcing instincts, thoughtful candidate evaluation, and excellent closing ability.
