Senior Technical Recruiter

Role Description

Lazer's Fintech practice partners with some of the most ambitious teams in financial software, across payments, lending, capital markets, embedded finance, and AI-native financial products. We're still deep in the crypto ecosystem too, working with some of the most well-known crypto-native trading and infrastructure projects. The bigger story is the convergence: traditional finance platforms are modernizing fast and leveraging both crypto and AI, and our practice sits right at that intersection. Many of our engagements involve clients embedding agents, copilots, and LLM-driven workflows directly into their financial products. This space is still being shaped, and the team we hire gets to shape it.

Qualifications

• 5 to 7 years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience hiring software engineers, with a meaningful chunk of that time spent in crypto, fintech or adjacent financial infrastructure (payments, lending, capital markets, embedded finance, financial data platforms)
• A blended background across in-house and agency or embedded search.
• Deeply AI-fluent on the candidate side.
• A real, warm network of fintech engineering talent across the US and Canada.
• An exceptional closer who can articulate technical opportunities to skeptical senior engineers.
• A direct, low-ego operator who is comfortable with ambiguity and a fast-moving environment.
• A strong written communicator.

Requirements

• Own the full hiring funnel for engineering roles across Lazer's Fintech practice, from intake to offer signed.
• Partner directly with Cofounders and Fintech leadership to translate strategy into a sharp, prioritized hiring plan.
• Source proactively; most of our hires come from outbound.
• Build and run interview loops that move fast and protect quality.
• Use AI to compound your output.
• Close candidates with substance.
• Bring market signal back to the business.
• Help shape how we hire as we scale.
