About the RoleStarbridge is hiring a
Recruiter based in New York to help us hire the top 1% of the market as we scale. You will report to our
Head of Recruiting.
We tripled headcount and filled 30+ roles last year with just two Recruiters. More than half of our hires come from outbound because we run recruiting the way we run go-to-market: engineered, measured, and AI-forward. Sourcing, research, interview prep, and reporting all lean on AI here (check out our feature with Juicebox). You'll inherit that leverage and push it further.
Responsibilities & Impact- Recruit with a real AI stack: Much of the manual work in this job: sourcing review, interview prep, note-taking, pipeline reporting, is already automated here.
- Recruit the top 1%, not the available 10%: For every search, build a written point of view on what great looks like, which companies produce it, and who specifically we should be talking to, then go earn the reply.
- Own screening and assessment: Run rsum reviews, prescreens, and deeper technical or competency-based evaluations to keep decisions moving.
- Own offers and closing: Most finalists are weighing something else, and losing one at the offer stage is the most expensive thing that happens in this role.
- Run a process candidates talk about afterward: Shooting star speed for responsiveness and decisions in days rather than weeks. Candidates who don't get an offer should still send us their friends.
- Tell hiring managers what they need to hear: Flag a mis-scoped search, a below-market band, or a profile that doesn't exist in week one, with market data and funnel numbers behind it.
Qualifications- 5+ years recruiting in a high-growth environment.
- You already use LLMs in your recruiting work: research, outreach, call summaries, funnel analysis, and can describe a workflow you built or improved.
- Proven ability to independently qualify, screen, progress, and close technical candidates.
- Real technical depth: you can hold a credible conversation with an engineer about what they built and why, and tell genuine ownership from a rehearsed answer. You don't need to code.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication, high attention to detail, and strong organizational instincts.
- Ownership mentality: you thrive in ambiguity, move quickly, and bias toward action.
Bonus if you have- Familiarity with modern recruiting platforms (Ashby, Greenhouse, Gem, Juicebox).
- Prior experience scaling recruiting at an early-stage company.
Interview ProcessWe move fast - really fast. Getting back to someone today beats tomorrow, and our interview process reflects that mindset. Please keep us posted on your timeline so we can move quickly and speed things up where needed.
Benefits include:- Competitive salary + early-stage equity
- Company provided Lunch in office everyday
- Complimentary gym (Chelsea Piers Fitness) membership
- Unlimited PTO
- Regular offsites (NYC + global locations)
