Senior Recruiter
About the role
This is a 6‑month fixed‑term role with the option to convert to full‑time. Technical hiring is the primary focus, and you'll also own hiring across the rest of the company, including sales, client success, and clinical roles. When a search needs a recruiter, you take it, whatever the function. The role is built on proactive sourcing and market mapping. You'll spend real time finding candidates who don’t apply on their own, reaching out, and earning their interest. You'll protect the integrity of our hiring process by building identity and work‑history verification into screening. You'll set baselines for time to fill, candidate response time, and offer acceptance, then own improving them. Candidates judge us by how we treat them—no one waits for an answer, and you’ll quickly resolve any internal delays. If the role converts to full‑time, you’ll help build and scale the recruiting function as we grow.
Responsibilities
- Own full‑cycle recruiting across the company, with primary focus on engineering, data science, and AI/ML.
- Take on sales, client success, clinical, and other searches as business needs them.
- Map the market, build target lists, and run proactive outbound sourcing so pipelines don’t depend on inbound applicants.
- Build and run talent‑community and brand‑awareness initiatives, creating recruiting content, job promotion, and outreach assets.
- Design and execute proactive sourcing campaigns tailored to specific audiences, using timely market insights.
- Build verification into your process to spot fraudulent or misrepresented candidates early.
- Run intake meetings that pin down qualifications and competencies; hold regular pipeline reviews with hiring managers; partner on feedback, calibration, offer negotiation, and closing.
- Keep every candidate moving and every search on pace; respond quickly, manage scheduling, spot stalled pipelines early.
- Own time to fill for your searches; keep candidates engaged from first contact through start date.
- Manage the ATS end‑to‑end (stage design, automation, sequencing, templates, tags, reporting); keep it current.
- Improve workflows, structured interviews, and scorecards tied to defined competencies.
- Train and onboard hiring managers on ATS best practices, sourcing, and compliance.
- Expand interviewer training and calibration to scale with pipeline.
- Partner with the People team on offer development and selling candidates on the opportunity.
- Publish recruiting analytics that show funnel health and guide improvements.
Requirements
- Deep sourcing expertise with a track record of filling technical roles through proactive outbound and market mapping, not inbound applicants.
- High follow‑through: running many searches at once, responding fast, keeping commitments, reducing time to fill, with specific examples.
- Willingness to do whatever it takes to close a search, including administrative work.
- Candidate‑first approach with clear communication at every stage; no one left waiting for an update.
- Comfort recruiting across technical and non‑technical roles, taking on searches outside your usual lane.

- 6+ years of recruiting experience, including technical recruiting across engineering, ML/AI, and data roles, from entry‑level through staff.
- 3+ years recruiting in an early‑stage or high‑growth startup environment.
- Experience designing recruiting operations, including workflows, structured interviews, scorecards, and rubrics tied to competencies.

- Track record of inclusive recruiting practices and building diverse talent pipelines.
