Job description

Technical Recruiter

We are looking for a Technical Recruiter who thrives in early-stage ambiguity and is excited to help shape how Braintrust grows. We are a product and engineering company first, and the people we hire internally set the bar for everything we do.

In this role, you will be a core partner to engineering and leadership, with real ownership over how we find, evaluate, and close exceptional technical talent. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys building systems while staying close to the work. If you are energized by strong technical teams, thoughtful process, and the chance to meaningfully influence a company's trajectory, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

  • Own full-cycle recruiting for engineering roles, from sourcing through offer acceptance, with a strong focus on quality and candidate experience.

  • Partner closely with engineering leaders to define roles, calibrate talent, and make great hiring decisions.

  • Clearly and authentically communicate what Braintrust is building, why it matters, and why now, serving as a trusted guide for candidates throughout the process.

  • Identify and execute opportunities to improve our recruiting strategy, interview process, employer brand, and candidate experience as we scale.

  • Build and maintain a healthy pipeline of top-tier technical talent, including passive candidates across multiple disciplines.

  • Track recruiting metrics thoughtfully and use data to understand what is working, what is not, and where we should experiment.

  • Provide tight, actionable feedback to leadership on market dynamics, candidate sentiment, and how our story is landing.

  • Identify opportunities to streamline workflows and improve recruiting operations without sacrificing quality.

Ideal Candidate Credentials

  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally including time at a high-growth or early-stage company.

  • You build strong relationships with hiring partners and operate as a trusted advisor who is comfortable pushing for the best outcome.

  • You have successfully helped candidates understand and get excited about early-stage product and engineering teams, including how to think about equity, ownership, and long-term growth.

  • You are a builder at heart. You have started something before, whether a process, initiative, team practice, or side project, and you enjoy making things better than you found them.

  • You take feedback well, act on it quickly, and operate with high confidence and low ego.

  • You communicate clearly and warmly in writing, on calls, and when explaining complex technical opportunities simply and honestly.

  • You are comfortable with shifting priorities, ambiguity, and balancing multiple roles without losing sight of quality.

Benefits Include

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance

  • Daily lunch, snacks, and beverages

  • Flexible time off

  • Competitive salary and equity

  • AI Stipend

Equal Opportunity

Braintrust is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
