Role
Who you are
- 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience in a high-growth tech or SaaS environment
- Experience recruiting across GTM and EPD, with the ability to context-switch and calibrate across very different talent profiles
- Comfortable partnering with and influencing senior leadership on hiring strategy, not just executing against it
- Proven track record of engaging and closing hard-to-reach candidates in competitive markets, often against offers from larger, more established companies
- Has built or meaningfully improved recruiting processes, workflows, or interview structures from the ground up
- Ready to take a genuine first step into talent leadership, contributing to team rhythm, mentorship, and how the function operates
- Hybrid, ability to work with our team from our Palo Alto office minimum 2x a week (M/Th)
What the job involves
- You'll inherit foundational recruiting practices and a strong base to build from but we're looking for someone who brings fresh ideas and elevates our function to the next level
- This role is built for an ambitious recruiter who wants to stay close to the craft while growing into talent leadership. If you're a Senior Recruiter ready to take on more, leading team meetings, influencing how we hire, and helping build something that scales, this is your stepping stone into TA leadership
- Drive full-cycle recruiting across GTM and EPD, partnering directly with leaders, delivering consistent, high-quality hires that raise the talent bar
- Serve as a trusted advisor to hiring leaders on calibration, candidate quality, and closing, ensuring every hire is assessed on long-term potential and fit, not just credentials
- Proactively identify and engage exceptional talent across industry and academia, building relationships before roles open so we're never starting from zero
- Build and refine recruiting processes, workflows, and interview structures that make Fiddler's hiring scalable, repeatable, and a model for what great talent acquisition looks like at a high-growth AI company
- Bring sharp, consistent people judgment to every evaluation, assessing candidates on who they're becoming, not just where they've been
- Create and manage targeted outreach campaigns and bias-free evaluation frameworks that improve both the quality and diversity of our candidate pipeline
- Manage 8–12 open roles simultaneously with the organization and discipline to keep every search moving without sacrificing candidate experience
- Enhance Fiddler's employer brand with candidates so that every interaction, regardless of outcome, leaves people wanting to work here
Our take
AI and machine learning are increasingly shaping the way organizations make decisions. However, one major challenge is that AI technology often operates as a "black box". Unlike traditional software, where developers can review code to understand its logic, AI systems can be opaque, making it difficult for companies to fully grasp how data is interpreted and outcomes are reached.
Fiddler AI aims to address this gap with an explainable AI platform that offers transparency into how models make predictions. By providing clear insights into decision-making processes and enabling adjustments when bias is detected, Fiddler enhances trust and accountability in AI systems.
This focus on building trust in AI comes at a crucial time, as the market is expected to grow over 30% annually. Fiddler AI has already partnered with major banking institutions and online brands like Etsy. And with an impressive $30 million Series C funding round behind it, Fiddler is well-positioned to compete with rivals like Reflektion and Conviva.
