Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Carrum Health is a health tech company transforming specialty care to enhance patient experiences. They are seeking a Lead Technical Recruiter to establish a foundational recruiting strategy while remaining hands-on in closing complex roles and transitioning into a leadership position.
Responsibilities
- The Founding Technical Recruiting Blueprint: As the foundational lead for this pillar, you will design and execute the end-to-end technical hiring strategy. You aren't just following a process; you are building the playbook for how Carrum identifies, vets, and closes high-quality technical talent
- The Player-Coach Transition: You will start by rolling up your sleeves to personally drive full-cycle execution for our most complex tech roles. Over the next 6–12 months, you have the opportunity to strategically transition into a leadership role, taking over management, performance tracking, and mentorship for our existing recruiting and ops team
- High-Velocity Full-Cycle Execution: You will treat the candidate journey like a production pipeline—fast, reliable, and automated where possible. You’ll maintain a high volume of active candidates while ensuring an elite candidate experience where no one sits in a stage for more than 48 hours
- Creative & Inclusive Sourcing: You will utilize advanced sourcing techniques to attract and engage high-quality, diverse technical talent. You’re not just waiting for applicants; you act as a strategic "scout" by mapping AI hubs and donor companies to proactively hunt high-conviction, diverse pipelines of technical talent
- Data-Driven Funnel Optimization: You’ll provide weekly "Funnel Health" reports directly to leadership. You will build rigorous tracking systems that eliminate the "black hole" of recruiting, identifying bottlenecks in conversion and pivoting our technical sourcing strategy in real-time
- Strategic Talent Advisor: You will partner directly with technical leadership to proactively evaluate their current team structures and project where they need to grow as we scale. Moving beyond a "ticket-taker" recruiter, you will use market data and consultative insights to help leadership architect their future technical organizations
- Strategic Mission Narrative: You will develop a profound understanding of Carrum’s value-based care model and business goals to effectively pitch our vision and sell high-quality technical talent on our long-term impact

- 6+ years of experience doing technical recruiting, preferably with 3+ years in a high-growth startup environment where you had to build processes from scratch
- A passion for mentorship, team performance management, and organizational design
