Founding Recruiter

Silna Health

About Silna

Healthcare is obsessed with optimizing a broken system. We're making sure it never breaks.

Silna Health attacks the root cause of denied claims: the fragmented, incompatible systems that govern prior authorizations, eligibility verification, and benefit checks, turning workflows that used to take days into decisions made in minutes, before care is ever delivered.

We work across behavioral health, physical health, ambulatory care, and post-acute care, where administrative failure doesn't just cost money; it can delay or deny patient access entirely. We're backed by Accel and Bain Capital Ventures, and we're building fast.

The Role

We're hiring our first in-house Recruiter to own hiring across engineering, go-to-market, and operations. You'll be both a strategic partner and a hands-on sourcer, building pipelines, closing top talent, and shaping the processes that will scale our team from 30 to 50+ people. In this role, you'll shape our talent narrative, design scalable processes, and build a brand that consistently attracts top performers.

Why Join Us
  • Ground-floor opportunity to build the recruiting function from scratch
  • Mission-driven impact: Help healthcare providers spend more time with patients
  • Unprecedented growth: Series A backed, doubling revenue quarter over quarter
  • Cutting-edge technology transforming healthcare operations
  • High-visibility role with direct access to the CEO and C-Suite
  • Collaborative culture: Smart, passionate, in-office team committed to excellence
Key Responsibilities:
  • Full-Cycle Recruiting Excellence
    • Own the end-to-end recruiting process from sourcing to offer negotiation across all functions and roles.
    • Manage role intake, sourcing, screening, interviewing, closing, and onboarding handoff.
  • Sourcing & Engagement
    • Actively source top talent through LinkedIn outreach, referrals, events, and creative channels.
    • Tailor messaging to reflect evolving company needs and inspire interest in Silna.
    • Build deep pipelines for both current and future needs.
  • Stakeholder Partnership
    • Collaborate with hiring managers to deeply understand role requirements, team dynamics, and ideal candidate profiles.
    • Provide data-driven hiring insights to inform strategy.
  • Candidate Experience & Talent Brand
    • Deliver a best-in-class candidate journey that reinforces our values - even for those we don't hire.
    • Position Silna as a destination employer in competitive markets.
  • Process & Systems Building
    • Initially focus on sourcing and closing; evolve into building scalable processes, tools, and metrics to reduce reliance on external sources
    • Track and report on key metrics using data to support recruitment strategy
Required Qualifications
  • 4+ years of full-cycle recruiting in high-growth technology companies
  • Proven success hiring across multiple functions, with strong technical recruiting skills
  • Track record of sourcing and closing passive candidates in competitive markets
  • Experience building recruiting processes and systems in fast-paced environments
  • Data-driven, analytical mindset - uses metrics to optimize strategy and execution
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Proficiency with ATS platforms (Ashby, Greenhouse, etc.) and sourcing tools
Preferred Qualifications
  • Built recruiting functions from scratch at Series B-D stage companies (under 250 employees)
  • Experience in VC-backed SaaS environments
  • Background in companies that doubled headcount within 18-24 months
  • History of winning top talent from outside well-known employers
What We Offer
  • Competitive salary + equity
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • 401(k)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Collaborative, high-energy work environment
  • Opportunity to make a significant impact and define a new market category
