About the role:
We're looking for a Technical Recruiting Lead to own full-cycle recruiting for our Engineering, Product, and Design teams. You'll be the first dedicated technical recruiter at Numeral, which means you'll have real influence over how we build our technical org, from the processes we use to the bar we set for talent.
This is a high-ownership role for someone who moves fast, builds trust with hiring managers and candidates alike, and genuinely cares about candidate experience.
What you'll do:
Own the full recruiting cycle for technical roles: sourcing, screening, coordinating, and closing candidates across Engineering, Product, and Design
Partner closely with hiring managers to define role requirements, calibrate on the bar, and move quickly
Build and manage pipelines for roles ranging from senior ICs to leadership
Develop sourcing strategies that go beyond inbound including proactive outreach, community engagement, referrals
Establish recruiting processes, tooling, and best practices that scale as we grow
Create a candidate experience that reflects Numeral's culture and leaves a lasting impression
Track and report on recruiting metrics to drive accountability and continuous improvement
Help define what great technical recruiting looks like at Numeral. You're setting the standard
What you'll bring:
5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally at a high-growth startup
Track record of closing strong technical candidates in competitive markets
Experience recruiting across engineering disciplines (backend, full-stack, infra) and ideally product and design
Strong sourcing skills: you know how to find and engage candidates who aren't looking
Ability to build credibility with technical hiring managers and act as a true thought partner
Organized, data-driven, and comfortable managing multiple reqs simultaneously
Startup mindset: you're comfortable with ambiguity, scrappy when needed, and biased toward action
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with candidates and internal stakeholders alike
Nice to haves:
Experience as one of the first recruiters at a company
Familiarity with AI or fintech hiring markets
Experience building a hiring process, or recruiting function from scratch

401(k) to help you build long-term financial security
