Senior Technical Recruiter
TL;DR: We’re looking for a Senior Technical Recruiter to own and scale all EPD efforts. You’ll partner closely with founders, hiring managers, and interviewers to drive full-cycle recruiting — from sourcing and outreach to offer and close. This is an opportunity to build from 0 → 1: to shape hiring strategy, create processes, and help define what “great” looks like across EPD at Listen Labs.
Background
Listen Labs is an AI-powered research platform that helps teams uncover insights from customer interviews in hours - not months. We work with companies like Google, Microsoft, and Anthropic to help them analyze conversations, surface themes, and make faster, smarter product decisions.
We’re a 30-person startup backed by Sequoia, growing from $0 to a $10M run-rate in under a year. We move fast, care deeply about craft, and love working with people who take ownership of their work.
What You’ll Do
Own full-cycle recruiting for EPD roles.
Craft compelling outreach and brand narratives that reflect Listen’s mission and craft.
Build sourcing strategies and talent pipelines across functions and levels.
Drive an exceptional candidate experience from first touch to close.
Partner with founders on offer strategy, comp bands, and closing.
Maintain data accuracy and reporting in Ashby (pipeline health, pass-through rates, source mix).
Continuously improve interview processes, scorecards, and recruiting collateral.
Represent Listen Labs at events and through outbound initiatives to attract top talent.
Who You Are
3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience in engineering, product, and design.
Experience in a startup or high-growth environment.
A mix of agency and in-house experience is a plus.
Proven track record of sourcing and closing top talent in competitive markets.
Strong storytelling and written communication skills.
Analytical mindset — you think in funnels, conversion rates, and data.
Bias for action: you thrive in a fast-paced, founder-led environment with minimal structure.
Deep care for candidate experience and team partnership.
Enjoy working in person 5 days a week in SF.
Life at Listen Labs
Competitive Compensation: We’re backed by world-class investors, including Sequoia Capital, Conviction, AI Grant, and Pear VC, and offer competitive compensation packages with meaningful equity ownership.
Over $30B in market cap has been created in adjacent industries (Medallia, AlphaSense, GLG, Ipsos, Kantar). Our Sequoia partner, Bryan Schreier, was the first investor in Qualtrics—a $12B company tackling similar problems to ours.
Benefits that Support You: Comprehensive healthcare and dental coverage, flexible time off to recharge, and an environment that values balance and trust.
Room to Grow: As an early member of the team, you’ll have the opportunity to take on new responsibilities, shape processes from scratch, and grow alongside the company. We value people who want to stretch beyond their role and build something lasting.
