Full Job Description
EvenUp is a market-leading AI startup transforming personal injury law. As a Senior Technical Talent Partner, you'll lead our most complex Engineering and ML searches, advising hiring managers and executives as a strategic partner rather than an order-taker.
Please note this is a hybrid role in either our San Francisco, California or Toronto, Canada hub.
What You'll Do
Own full-cycle recruiting for complex, senior, or hard-to-fill roles across Engineering and ML, often spanning multiple teams.
Advise hiring managers and execs on role design, hiring strategy, and assessment/offer process, anticipating issues before they're raised.
Serve as the subject-matter expert on sourcing strategy, compensation, and assessments, using data to consult, not just report.
Own senior stakeholder relationships, influencing hiring decisions and calibration as the primary link between Talent and the business.
Set the pace on your searches, and re-engineer your approach the moment a search stalls, rather than escalating and waiting.
Hold the bar under pressure on the hardest, most ambiguous searches, keeping stakeholders steady through change.
Own search outcomes end to end, modeling excellence in data hygiene, write-ups, and process for the team.
Stay ahead of market and tooling trends, piloting new approaches and sharing what works with the team.
Champion an exceptional candidate experience and EvenUp's values in every search you run.
What We're Looking For
Track record independently leading senior, complex, or niche technical searches, ideally at a fast-paced startup.
Strong data fluency, using metrics and benchmarks to diagnose issues and guide your own prioritization.
Proven ability to advise technical leaders as a consultant, reframing hiring asks and influencing senior stakeholders.
High agency under ambiguity, with a record of unblocking stalled searches without waiting for direction.
Resilience through pressure, sustaining quality and momentum through freezes, reorgs, or the hardest searches.
Deep ownership of craft, producing clean, reliable recruiting deliverables others depend on.
A growth mindset, actively evaluating new tools and approaches (e.g., Ashby, Metaview) for the team.
Excellent, persuasive communication that builds trust quickly with technical stakeholders and candidates.
Benefits & Perks:
As part of our total rewards package, we offer attractive benefits and perks to our employees, including:
Choice of medical, dental, and vision insurance plans for you and your family.
Additional insurance coverage options for life, accident, or critical illness.
Flexible paid time off, sick leave, short-term and long-term disability.
10 US observed holidays, and Canadian statutory holidays by province.
A home office stipend.
401(k) for US-based employees and RRSP for Canada-based employees.
Paid parental leave.
A local in-person meet-up program.
Hubs in San Francisco and Toronto.
(Please note the above benefits & perks are for full-time employees)
