About the roleTechnical hiring is one of the highest-leverage things Numeric does. As we build out Engineering and Product against a bar we're not willing to lower, every open technical req is a bet on someone who can ramp fast on a complex domain and build. This role owns full-cycle execution on that bet. That means filling seats and building the sourcing, calibration, and candidate-experience machinery that lets Numeric compete for the 1% of talent.
What you'll own- Full-cycle execution: the entire lifecycle for technical and business-critical roles, from the first sourcing string to the final closing call.
- Sourcing as a craft: non-traditional, innovative methods for surfacing passive talent who aren't on LinkedIn actively looking
- Stakeholder partnership: calibrating roles with Founders and leadership and pushing back with strategic guidance, rather than executing what's asked.
- Candidate experience: a "high-touch" bar for every candidate, regardless of outcome - you take pleasure in the details
- Operational rituals: the recruiting infrastructure itself - ATS hygiene, reporting, referral loops - built and refined as you go.
You might be a great fit if you...- Have a foundation in technical recruiting (agency or high-growth startup) and are looking for more ownership than that role gave you.
- Thrive in the "chaos-to-order" phase - you don't wait for a manual, you build the solution and then the manual.
- Aren't intimidated by complex technical stacks; you want to understand how we build so you can speak credibly to engineers about the problem and solution.
- Are externally competitive (you want to win talent) but internally collaborative and empathetic with teammates.
- Treat organization as the only way to scale quality in a fast-moving environment instead of a chore that falls away under pressure.
What you need- 3-5+ years of technical recruiting experience, with a track record of closing candidates in competitive markets.
- Demonstrated ability to run a full-cycle process independently - sourcing, screening, stakeholder calibration, and close - without heavy oversight.
- Strong written and verbal communication; you can represent both the candidate to the business and the business to the candidate.
Nice to have- Experience recruiting for fintech, accounting-adjacent, or data-infrastructure companies.
- Experience building recruiting process from scratch at an early-stage startup (ATS setup, referral programs, reporting cadences).
This role is in-person in New York.We believe the best company is the one with the best ICs, and we've built a culture to maximize great work - as a Technical Recruiter here, your job is to protect and amplify that. We believe great product & engineering come from a desire to win, a deep care for the craft, and a pragmatism in shipping for overall impact.
We strongly believe we will only be successful if everyone on the team - recruiters included - is anchored in our core principles:
- Own the Outcome: We own our results. We typically hire builders and give them large mandates with high trust. As a manager, you're responsible not just for your team's code, but for ensuring your team is solving the end problems of the users.
- Brick by Brick: To win, our team needs to show up and execute in each domain every day.
- Love the Game: We focus on the craft and a deep sense of giving a f*ck. We're building a company full of people who are equally engaged and motivated - that starts with how you lead.
- Earn the Right: Our ability to rethink how things are done depends on the trust and reputation we build by shipping quality products and improving the lives of our users.
- SALY: We refuse to accept "Same As Last Year." We bring fresh eyes to a stagnated and underserved domain, including in how we build and run engineering teams.
