Technical Recruiter

About Pivotal Health

Pivotal Health is the leading technology platform that helps healthcare providers get paid fairly in an increasingly complex reimbursement landscape. Today, many providers face persistent underpayment from health insurance companies. Pivotal Health combines software, data, and service into an AI-driven platform that simplifies complex reimbursement workflows, helps providers dispute underpaid claims, reduces administrative burden, and recovers the reimbursement they’re entitled to.

About The Role

We’re looking for a Technical Recruiter who knows how to build in ambiguity and move fast without lowering the bar. This is not a “post and pray” role. You’ll own technical hiring end to end; from shaping the role with hiring managers to closing candidates who have options. Some searches will be highly specialized; others will require pace and volume. You’ll know when to slow down and when to push.

You’ll operate as both a strategic partner and a hands-on builder, able to influence hiring decisions, bring real market insight, and continuously improve how we hire as we scale. If you’ve worked in agency recruiting, you’ll feel at home here. We value urgency, accountability, and the ability to read a market. This is a high-impact role with real ownership over how we build our technical teams.

What You’ll Do

• Own technical hiring from start to finish:
  Run full-cycle recruiting across a range of technical roles and levels. Source proactively, build strong pipelines, and close exceptional talent.
• Partner deeply with hiring managers:
  Help define role scope, calibrate expectations, shape interview processes, and drive alignment. You won’t just “take reqs” — you’ll help design them.
• Bring real market insight:
  Provide data on talent pools, compensation trends, timelines, and competitive landscape. Help leaders understand trade-offs and make informed decisions.
• Balance speed with bar:
  Operate with urgency while protecting quality. Know how to keep momentum without cutting corners.
• Improve how we hire:
  Use data to identify bottlenecks, refine workflows, improve candidate experience, and evolve our recruiting strategy as the company grows.
• Build scalable programs:
  Contribute to sourcing strategies, interview training, employer brand efforts, and other recruiting initiatives that increase leverage over time.

Who You Are

• 5+ years of recruiting experience, including meaningful time in an agency environment
• Experience hiring technical roles across different functions and seniority levels
• Comfortable operating in startup or high-growth environments
• Strong sourcing instincts; you know how to build a pipeline from scratch
• Confident influencing hiring managers and pushing back when needed
• Data-informed but not data-paralyzed
• Highly organized and able to manage multiple searches simultaneously
• Resilient, accountable, and energized by building

Extra Credit Experience

• Experience recruiting in early-stage or scaling startup environments (Seed through Series C)
• Experience building or improving recruiting systems (interview design, workflows, tooling, hiring programs)
• Exposure to broader people or talent programs (onboarding, employer brand, workforce planning, DEI, performance calibration)

Why You’ll Love This Role

• Real ownership over how we hire: You’ll help shape how technical hiring works as we scale — from process design to talent strategy.
• High visibility and influence: You’ll work directly with hiring leaders and executives. Your perspective will matter in how teams are built and how roles are defined.
• Build in an early-stage environment: We’re still evolving. Ambiguity brings opportunity; you’ll thrive building structure where it doesn’t exist yet.
• Quality over bureaucracy: We move quickly, but we care about the bar. You’ll be empowered to push back, refine expectations, and protect candidate experience.
• Meaningful impact: Every hire changes the trajectory of the company. The teams you help build will shape our product, platform, and growth.
