About Role:

Our Recruiting mission is to engage, excite, and hire people who will achieve their career potential and contribute to the company's success. We do this by identifying the right individuals for the right roles, without bias, and inspiring them to become advocates of our business and values.

We're looking for a Technical Recruiter to help drive headcount growth and talent strategy. In this role you’ll find yourself partnering directly with executives and organizational leaders to own key technical hires that move the needle for the business. You’ll work closely with the existing team to help improve processes and identify new sourcing strategies.

You Will:

• Own the end-to-end recruiting process for technical roles (Software Engineering, Product Management, DevOps, Data, Security) from intake through offer acceptance, ensuring exceptional candidate and hiring manager experience.
• Act as a strategic advisor to engineering and product leaders, consulting on headcount planning, leveling frameworks, and talent strategy.
• Build and maintain robust talent pipelines through proactive sourcing, leveraging LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, technical communities, and creative outreach strategies.
• Drive diverse candidate pipelines to make Finix an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
• Make data-driven decisions to improve recruiting efficiency and reduce time-to-fill without sacrificing quality.
• Maintain data integrity within the ATS and provide regular reporting on recruiting metrics and pipeline health.
• Collaborate with the People team on process improvements, scalability initiatives, and employer branding efforts.

You Are:

• A full-cycle recruiter with a proven track record of filling niche and highly technical roles, and building strong, trusted relationships with hiring managers and executives.
• Someone who can work both strategically and tactically—advising on talent strategy while executing at a high level to fill priority roles.
• Solution-oriented and resourceful. You see potential challenges as opportunities to learn, grow, and innovate.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and energized by the fast-paced nature of a high-growth startup environment.
• A strong team player and excellent communicator who builds rapport quickly with both candidates and internal stakeholders.
• Highly organized with the ability to prioritize multiple responsibilities simultaneously, balancing competing demands with high EQ and sound judgment.

You Have:

• 4+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally within SaaS, Fintech, or high-growth startup environments.
• Deep experience hiring for engineering roles including Full Stack, Backend, Frontend, API Engineers, DevOps, Data Engineers, Security Engineers, and more.
• A strong understanding of technical skill sets, tools, and frameworks—you can credibly assess and sell technical opportunities to senior engineers.
• Demonstrated success building diverse talent pipelines and employing inclusive hiring practices.
• Proficiency with applicant tracking systems (Greenhouse, Lever, or similar) and sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, etc.).
• Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage complex searches in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong analytical skills with experience interpreting recruiting metrics and using data to drive decision-making.
