Technical Recruiter
About this role
What We Do
Rillet serves accounting and finance teams—the financial brains of their companies. Our job is to help them run the numbers with impossible speed, accuracy, and insight.
Rillet is the AI-native ERP that middle-market and enterprise companies trust for revenue recognition, multi-entity consolidation, and investor reporting. To enable real-time finance and a continuous close, Rillet rebuilt the general ledger from the ground up for the AI era. Rillet serves companies from Series A through the public markets, including Mercor, Scribe, and Function Health, and is a certified partner of top accounting firms like EY and KPMG.
This huge market is ours to take. We have raised $100M+ from leading investors, including Sequoia, a16z, Iconiq, Oak HC/FT, and First Round, to help everyone run their numbers at the speed of AI.
Who We Are
Rillet’s pace is not for everyone. Intelligence is table stakes. To succeed here, you need extreme speed, agency, and flexibility.
The people who thrive at Rillet do not wait for assignments. They internalize the mission, design a strategy, and bring back results that are better, faster, and more creative than a manager could have asked for.
Our work revolves around our customers. The people who succeed here are energized by delivering what matters most, even when it was not part of the original plan.
Rillet is built on deep accounting expertise, and it takes people from many disciplines to build a category-defining company. You do not need to be an accountant to thrive here. You do need to care deeply about the problems we solve and the impact our customers can create. Together, we combine the precision of accounting with the speed, creativity, and ambition of AI-native software to power the financial core of the world’s fastest-growing companies while redefining what finance teams should expect from their software.
Who We Need
We’re looking for an experienced Technical Recruiter to help build one of the strongest engineering teams in software. You’ll report to the Head of Recruiting and partner closely with engineering leaders to find, engage, and close the people who will shape Rillet’s future.
This is a true full-cycle role. You’ll define what great looks like, build thoughtful search strategies, guide hiring teams toward better decisions, and create an exceptional candidate experience from first conversation through close.
We’re open to recruiters with a range of experience. What matters most is strong talent judgment, the ability to earn trust, and a track record of hiring exceptional technical talent. The scope of the role will grow with the experience and strengths you bring.
We’re looking for teammates who are based near our New York City or San Francisco offices, or open to relocating. Our hybrid schedule brings the team together in person on Tuesdays and Thursdays, plus one additional flexible day each week. Some roles may spend more time in the office depending on the needs of the team.
What You’ll Do
Own full-cycle recruiting across Software Engineering, AI/ML, Infrastructure, and Engineering Leadership.
Partner with engineering leaders to define hiring strategy and calibrate what exceptional talent looks like.
Build and run searches ranging from scaled engineering hiring to highly personalized searches for Staff Engineers and leaders.
Source, engage, assess, and close exceptional candidates in competitive markets.
Use data, market insights, and sound judgment to influence hiring decisions.
Build trusted relationships with candidates, hiring managers, and executives.
Improve the systems, processes, and operating rhythms that help us hire better.
As your scope grows, coach teammates and help shape Rillet’s broader recruiting strategy.
Who We’re Looking For
Strong full-cycle technical recruiting experience in fast-growing technology companies.
A track record of hiring software engineers and other technical talent across a range of roles and seniority.
Exceptional talent judgment and the ability to clearly explain what separates a good candidate from a great one.
Proven success sourcing, engaging, and closing candidates in competitive markets.
Strong communication, stakeholder management, and influencing skills.
The ability to move between high-volume hiring and high-touch, business-critical searches.
A high bar for candidate experience, data quality, follow-through, and continuous improvement.
A team-first mindset and a desire to make the recruiting organization stronger, not just fill your own roles.
