About the role

Senior Technical Recruiter for CodeRabbit, a fast-growing AI code review platform. Location: San Francisco. Hybrid, full-time. Compensation: $175K – $250K per year.

Responsibilities

  • Own Technical Hiring End-to-End: Drive full-cycle recruiting across engineering, data science, ML, product, and technical operations; Sit down with hiring managers and technical leads to pin down what "excellent" means for each role — the signals that never make it into a job spec; Build interview loops that are sharp and repeatable, testing for genuine technical depth alongside the judgment it takes to succeed in a fast-moving startup; Win candidates by making the scope, autonomy, and reach of what we're building impossible to ignore.
  • Source Where Others Don't Look: Hunt for engineers, data scientists, and technical PMs through advanced sourcing across GitHub, LinkedIn, and the technical communities where builders actually spend their time; Construct pipelines for roles that demand both engineering rigor and the ability to thrive in a lean, high-velocity environment; Reach talent long before they open a job tab — through open-source contributors, hackathon circles, and communities tied to developer tooling and AI; Keep a working knowledge of movement in AI/ML, developer tools, and dev infrastructure so your outreach lands with engineers who can tell the difference.
  • Be a Strategic Partner to Technical Leaders: Serve as a trusted advisor to engineering and product leaders, giving them straight market feedback and real competitive intelligence on the talent landscape; Give technical leaders the clarity to make fast, confident hiring calls — adding structure without the bureaucracy that usually comes with it; Convert roadmap priorities into concrete hiring plans, and surface risks while they're still easy to fix; Hold the line on speed, quality, and team fit as the company's technical direction keeps evolving.
  • Build a Recruiting Engine That Scales: Create and refine interview frameworks, assessment methods, and hiring rubrics that hold up as teams grow; Bring consistency and standards to hiring without becoming a drag on the teams you support; Lean on data, pattern recognition, and good judgment to keep raising the bar — and coach others to do the same; Lay the groundwork for a recruiting function that can keep pace with where CodeRabbit is headed.

Qualifications

  • 5–8+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting, ideally at high-growth startups, developer-tools companies, or teams scaling engineering headcount quickly.
  • A proven history of landing senior engineers, data scientists, ML practitioners, and technical PMs in genuinely competitive markets.
  • Standout sourcing chops — real fluency with GitHub, LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, and the creative approaches that surface hard-to-find profiles.
  • Enough technical fluency to talk credibly with engineers about their work, read role-fit signals, and judge candidate quality well past the resume.
  • A high tolerance for ambiguity, shifting priorities, and leaders who think big and move quickly.
  • Sharp instincts for talent, trajectory, and team fit — not just pedigree and years served.
  • A crisp communicator and a strong closer who takes real pride in the quality of the teams they help assemble.
  • Real curiosity about developer tools, AI, and the craft of software — and a genuine interest in building products engineers actually want to use.
