Lead/Senior Technical Recruiter

Role

SentiLink is building high-performing teams to tackle some of the most complex problems in identity, risk, and fraud, and we are looking for a Lead/Senior Technical Recruiter to play a critical role in that growth.

In this role, you will own full cycle recruiting for technical roles across Engineering and Data Science, while remaining flexible to support business and go-to-market hiring as company priorities evolve. You will also partner closely with leadership on complex and high-impact searches, including leadership roles.

This is a highly collaborative role for a recruiter who brings strong talent-market expertise, sound judgment, and a willingness to operate as a fungible recruiting partner across the organization. You will be a trusted advisor to hiring managers, help shape hiring strategy, and provide informal leadership and mentorship to other recruiters and recruiting partners.

This is a remote, U.S.-based position. Candidates based in Austin who are able to work regularly from one of our office locations are especially encouraged to apply.

Responsibilities

• Deliver structured, consistent, and high-quality interview and candidate experiences
• Maintain strong operational rigor across the ATS and recruiting workflows
• Improve recruiting processes, tools, and practices to increase efficiency, consistency, and scale
• Provide informal team leadership through mentorship, calibration, and knowledge sharing
• Help embed thoughtful, AI-enabled practices across our recruiting infrastructure and team, using AI to improve sourcing, market research, workflow efficiency, candidate experience, and recruiting operations while maintaining sound judgment and confidentiality

Requirements

• 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including significant technical recruiting experience in a technology company or high-growth startup
• Experience recruiting across Engineering, Data Science, and/or Product, as well as business or GTM functions
• Demonstrated success recruiting both technical individual contributors and people leaders, including Manager- and Director-level candidates
• Proven ability to influence hiring managers and senior leaders through market insight, sound judgment, and clear communication
• Strong sourcing, pipeline development, candidate assessment, and closing skills
• Data-driven approach to recruiting, including experience using funnel metrics to improve hiring outcomes
• Demonstrated fluency with AI tools and workflows, with the judgment to identify practical use cases, evaluate outputs, and help drive responsible adoption across a recruiting team
• Experience mentoring, coaching, or informally leading other recruiters or sourcers
• Strong stakeholder management, prioritization, and operational discipline; experience with Ashby is preferred
• Commitment to inclusive hiring practices, confidentiality, and values-aligned teams
• Willingness to travel approximately six times per year for company meetups, off-sites, and relevant events
• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. and reside within the country
