Technical Recruiting Lead

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

Location

• This role is hybrid (3 days a week in our SF or NYC office)

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and equity - you'll share directly in the company's success
• Full medical, dental, and vision coverage
• Wellness perks like Headspace and the Peloton One App
• 401(k) to help you build long-term financial security
• Relocation assistance to NYC or SF (if needed)
• Lunch and snacks when you're in the office
• Regular team offsites and company events as we grow
• A culture built on ownership - your work matters and people will see it!
