Senior Recruiter (Part time - contract)

Location: Remote

Department: Recruiting

Location Type: REMOTE

Employment Type: CONTRACT

About the Opportunity:


We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Recruiter, on a contract basis, to join our team and help us hire world-class product, engineering, data, design, and business talent across our studio/internal venture teams. This role is ideal for an operator who thrives in ambiguity, moves with urgency, and understands the unique dynamics of building software companies from the ground up - whether inside a startup, venture studio, incubator, or accelerator.

You will partner closely with hiring managers to drive recruiting strategies, build high-quality pipelines, and deliver exceptional candidate experiences. The ideal person has recruited for manager/director-level and critical IC roles, can navigate ambiguity, understands the nuances of technical hiring, and knows how to balance strategic partnership with tactical execution.

If you are energized by fast-moving environments, complex problem-solving, and the opportunity to influence how companies are built, this role is for you. 

Note: This is a contract role.

In This Role, You Will:

  • Own full-cycle recruiting across Product, Engineering, Business & Growth, Data Science, and Design (Lead/Manager/Director-level).
  • Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, scorecards, competencies, and hiring strategies.
  • Build top-of-funnel pipelines using creative sourcing techniques across LinkedIn, niche channels, outbound campaigns, talent communities, and warm networks.
  • Lead structured interviews and candidate assessments; ensure consistency, clarity, and high-quality bar setting across interview panels.
  • Navigate ambiguity as roles evolve; work fluidly in 0→1 environments where requirements shift and speed is paramount.
  • Communicate candidate insights, market trends, and pipeline analytics to leadership; influence decision-making through data.
  • Drive a best-in-class candidate experience from first touch to close.
  • Maintain and optimize recruiting workflows, ATS usage, and operational processes to improve speed, quality, and efficiency.
  • Represent the company brand externally—selling the mission, product vision, and venture studio model to world-class talent.

What You Bring:

  • 6+ years of recruiting experience, ideally within a startup, venture studio, incubator, accelerator, or company that builds software ventures.
  • Proven track record recruiting for technical roles (Software Engineering, Data Science/ML, Product, Design) and director-level leadership positions.
  • Strong sourcing capabilities and expertise with modern tools (Gem, Metaview, Claude, Linkedin, AI sourcing tools, etc.).
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous, and high-change environment; comfortable context switching and managing competing priorities.
  • Strong business acumen and ability to understand how roles map to product, engineering, and GTM execution.
  • Exceptional communication skills—clear, concise, and able to influence senior stakeholders.
  • Highly organized, operationally minded, and committed to process excellence.
