Talent Acquisition Coordinator

About OLIX

AI is growing faster than any technology in history and the explosion in demand has created a massive infrastructure gap; we can no longer build chips or power stations fast enough to keep up. The industry is still leaning on a ten-year-old hardware blueprint that has reached its limit. A new paradigm that is faster and more efficient will be the biggest economic opportunity of the next century and create the most important company of the next decade. OLIX is building this next paradigm; the Optical Tensor Processing Unit (OTPU) achieves performance and energy efficiency that is impossible to match from existing chips.

The Role

We’re looking for a Talent Acquisition Coordinator to support hiring during one of OLIX's most critical periods of growth. We’re growing in the US and hiring is our #1 priority.

You’ll work directly with hiring managers, the People and Operations teams and top talent to provide a high touch candidate experience and facilitate a seamless end to end interview process. You’ll work alongside a Talent Partner in the Austin office, and a global Talent team to build the infrastructure that helps us hire smarter and faster.

The ideal candidate will have 0-1 experience in the accelerator space or deep tech with a creative mindset to navigate complex travel and interview schedules. You’ll have a keen eye for detail, drive and strong communication skills.

This role is based in our Austin office and is 5 days a week in person.

Responsibilities

• Orchestrate end‑to‑end interview scheduling at pace—calendars, confirmations, and travel logistics included.
• Act as the communication hub, keeping candidates, recruiters, interviewers, and hiring managers aligned throughout the process.
