Senior Technical Recruiter

WHY WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU:

We've helped our customers build nearly-countless tools to run their business more effectively, tripling our revenue along the way — and we've had a blast doing it! We have even bigger goals in front of us, and to get there, we need a seasoned technical recruiter to deliver best practices, source excellent and relevant talent, and identify motivationally-aligned engineers excited to build one of Sequoia Capital's breakout companies. You'll partner deeply with our Head of Engineering and various cross-functional stakeholders in order to fully understand our hiring bar. We'll also look to you to drive process improvements, hiring strategy, and execution with our technical recruiting team. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity with a certain, outsized impact, hiring the people who build product that many engineers live in daily, shaping the future of software development overall! 

WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH:

The talent team at Retool is small but extremely impactful. Recruiting has historically been a team sport, and we're proud of the recruiting-forward organization we've built. You'll partner with the team to set goals, ensure a stellar candidate experience, and achieve our aggressive hiring targets. We're a diverse bunch with a variety of backgrounds: some of us come from industries unrelated to tech and others have grown up on a steady diet of Bay-area companies. We're a dedicated hard-working group that likes to have fun and we're looking to add folks to help us expand our culture. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you! And, it might be helpful to note: we've returned to the office 3 days a week in the Mission district of San Francisco!
