Senior Technical Recruiter

ABOUT WARP

Warp is the AI-native Employee Management Platform for ambitious companies. Our platform includes HRIS, payroll, IT, benefits, tax compliance, and more - all built from scratch on an AI-native architecture from day 1.

Warp embeds itself into every part of a company's people operating layer, we process over half a billion $ annually in payroll, on track to grow to $2B.

Legacy vendors in our space built their businesses by profiting from complexity. Warp is built from day one for AI to be the primary operator, not a feature. Every advance in LLM capability widens our lead.

We hire people who ship constantly, own outcomes, and care about craft. We're in the office five days a week because speed and proximity are a competitive advantage at this stage. If you want to build something that automates an entire category of core work, not just another point solution, this is the place.

We've raised over $85M from top investors like Ashton Kutcher/Sound Ventures, Y Combinator, founders of Dropbox, Replit, SV Angel, and Homebrew Capital. Built by an obsessive team from MIT, Ramp, Brex, Google, Dropbox, Apple, and more.

We're hiring a Senior Technical Recruiter to build the engineering, product, and design team behind Warp's next phase. We're going from 30+ to 70+ this year, and the hardest, highest-leverage part of that is technical hiring. This role is for someone who treats sourcing as a craft: you know where the best engineers are, how to get their attention, and how to close them. You'll own technical hiring strategy end to end, working with our recruiting lead on ops and partnering directly with our CTO and engineering leads on the bar.

What you'll do

• Build and own sourcing strategy for engineering, product, and design, from target-list construction to first outreach to close.
• Hunt for top-tier talent for our hardest roles: payments and infra engineers for the money-movement rails, identity and access, developer platform, and design engineering.
• Run full-cycle recruiting for complex technical roles, coordinating interviews, technical assessments, and system design, with a candidate experience that makes people want in.
• Be the market intelligence resource for hiring managers: comp benchmarking, competitive landscape, and talent-pool sizing.
• Run a fast, high-bar process. We move at warp speed and great candidates feel it.

What we're looking for

• 5+ years in technical recruiting, with a heavy emphasis on outbound sourcing.
• Strong opinions on what a great engineer looks like, and the examples to defend them.
• A track record driving searches end to end across a wide range of engineering roles, flagging concerns early and keeping them on track.
• Cold outreach that converts. You can get a response from someone who wasn't looking.
• You use AI throughout your workflow.
• High ownership and high standards. You'd rather leave a seat open than fill it wrong.

Nice to have

• You've hired for fintech, infra, or payments teams.
• Experience building an in-person, high-intensity team.

BENEFITS AT WARP:

• 100% Health Coverage: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans for you and your dependents.
• 401(k) Matching: Start investing in your future from day one.
• Unlimited PTO: We offer flexible PTO, meaning you’re trusted to take the time you need to recharge while balancing your responsibilities and team commitments.
• Commuter Benefits: Pre-tax commuter benefits for your daily trip to our NYC office.
• Catered Lunch Daily: Great food, every day, on us. No meal prep, no decision fatigue.
• Quarterly Offsites: Beautiful locations to connect as a team. Past locations include Spain and Catskills.

Warp is based in New York City, and we prioritize candidates who can commit to being on-site 5x per week. Please refer to the top of this page for this position's hiring location.
