About Fonzi

The current recruiting process is highly inefficient for companies and fundamentally broken for candidates. Fonzi is an AI-powered recruiter that stacks the deck in the hiring team's favor by—sourcing, reviewing applications, interviewing, and verifying top candidates before they even apply. The core features our of AI agents enable hiring managers and recruiters to tap into the Fonzi Talent Network to find qualified candidates, score resumes and run phone screen candidates automatically, and filter out fraudulent and unqualified applicants. This all works where HR teams do—in their ATS, inbox, and notetaker.

Founded by longtime friends Brett Martin and Yang Mou, Fonzi soft-launched in November 2024. Much of the founding team has previously worked with Brett and Yang, a testament to their leadership and positive approach to company culture. Although only a few months old, Fonzi is already generating revenue. The company is well-capitalized, with eight-figure funding from leading venture capital firms, including Lightspeed Venture Partners, Boldstart Ventures, Alumni Ventures, and more. Building on this early success, Fonzi is rapidly scaling operations to establish itself as the market leader in disrupting the HR world.

The Role

We are seeking a Marketing Manager to join our Marketing Team and lead our speaking appearance and influencer marketing strategy, positioning Fonzi as the category leader in AI-powered recruiting.

The Marketing Manager will report directly to the Head of Marketing and may eventually oversee full-time offshore support resources.
