ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re hiring an Engineering Recruiter to build the technical teams behind Rogo’s AI-native products for finance. As part of our founding San Francisco team, you’ll partner directly with our CTO and SF-based engineering leaders to grow the office and hire the engineers who will shape our next phase of growth.

You’ll own critical technical searches end-to-end and serve as a strategic partner to engineering leadership—shaping hiring priorities, defining what great looks like, and turning ambitious growth plans into exceptional hires. This is a hands-on opportunity to build both a team and the recruiting practices that support it.

  • Own critical technical searches: Drive full-cycle recruiting across engineering disciplines, from search strategy and sourcing through assessment, offer negotiation, and close.
  • Find and engage exceptional engineers: Map talent markets, build targeted pipelines, and develop relationships with engineers who aren’t actively looking. Craft outreach that connects their interests to the technical problems we’re solving.
  • Advise engineering leadership: Bring market intelligence and pipeline insights to hiring decisions. Challenge assumptions, calibrate candidate profiles, and help leaders navigate tradeoffs.
  • Build a rigorous interview process: Partner with interviewers to design assessments that reveal technical ability, judgment, and ownership. Drive clear feedback and timely decisions while maintaining a high bar.
  • Close competitive candidates: Understand what matters to each candidate and partner with leadership to build a compelling case for joining Rogo.
  • Strengthen our engineering presence: Build relationships in the SF technical community and help engineering leaders tell Rogo’s story through networks, events, and candidate conversations.
  • Improve how we hire: Use recruiting data to identify bottlenecks and improve results. Manage agency partners where needed and deliver a thoughtful, responsive candidate experience throughout.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING

  • 5+ years of technical recruiting experience, with a track record of hiring exceptional engineers for high-growth technology companies
  • Experience owning complex technical searches and closing candidates with competitive offers
  • The credibility and judgment to advise senior engineering leaders and influence hiring decisions
  • Strong technical fluency and the ability to understand engineering teams, skill sets, and candidate motivations
  • Creative sourcing skills and a track record of building relationships with passive technical talent
  • High ownership, strong execution, and comfort bringing structure to ambiguous hiring needs
  • A disciplined, data-informed approach to managing multiple searches
  • Excitement about building our SF office alongside the engineering leaders and teams based there
  • Experience recruiting in the Bay Area; AI/ML hiring experience is a plus

WHO YOU ARE

  • You thrive in fast-paced environments. You are high-intensity and care a lot about what you do, and you're ecstatic to work at a startup.
  • You are ambitious. You have fun solving problems that others think are impossible.
  • You are curious. You find joy in learning about AI, technology, and finance.
  • You are an owner. You are autonomous, self-directed, and comfortable working with ambiguity.
