About the Role
As a Senior Recruiter at Hinge, you will be a strategic partner to hiring leaders across both technical and business functions. You will own full-cycle recruitment, drive data-informed sourcing strategies, champion diversity and inclusion, and help shape the future of our Talent Acquisition practice. This is a high-impact, high-visibility role on a team that values curiosity, creativity, and candor.
Responsibilities
Full-Cycle Recruitment
Own end-to-end recruiting for roles across technical and business functions from intake to offer close, leveraging AI-enabled workflows to drive efficiency at every stage.
Continuously audit and refine interview rubrics, assessments, and scoring guides — proactively identifying and resolving bottlenecks in calibration, candidate throughput, and offer conversion.
Track and report on comprehensive metrics, including: time-to-hire, offer acceptance rate, candidate and hiring manager NPS, and source effectiveness.
Model Hinge's values in every interaction: owning outcomes, sharing honest feedback, and continuously raising the bar for the team.
Sourcing and Pipeline Development
Design and execute multi-channel sourcing strategies using job boards, LinkedIn, niche communities, industry events, university partnerships, and direct outreach to build and maintain a healthy pipeline at every stage.
Leverage AI-enabled recruiting tools and predictive analytics to identify and engage passive candidates.
Partner with hiring managers to define ideal candidate profiles and translate them into creative search strategies, staying ahead of competitive hiring signals, market trends, and emerging skill sets to proactively brief leaders on talent dynamics.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Build and maintain diverse pipelines by crafting inclusive job descriptions, partnering with DEI-focused organizations, HBCUs, and HSIs, and attending diversity-specific events and conferences.
Audit candidate funnel data at each stage to identify representation gaps, implement evidence-based interventions, and coach hiring teams on inclusive interview practices, structured evaluation criteria, and bias mitigation techniques.
Talent Attraction and Employer Brand
Develop and execute targeted recruitment marketing campaigns via LinkedIn, niche platforms, and social media that authentically showcase Hinge's culture and mission.
Stakeholder and Offer Management
Serve as a trusted talent partner and advisor to hiring managers, leading with curiosity, translating market data into actionable recommendations, and facilitating aligned, values-driven hiring decisions.
Provide comprehensive offer guidance grounded in compensation benchmarking, internal parity, and a clear understanding of candidate expectations.
Maintain clear, timely communication with all stakeholders — candidates, HRBPs, operations team partners, and business leaders — conducting regular feedback sessions with hiring managers to continuously raise the quality of the recruitment partnership.

5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally in tech, consumer apps, or a high-growth environment.
Proven track record hiring for technical and business functions across a variety of disciplines.

Experience developing or refining structured interview processes, scorecards, and competency-based evaluation frameworks.
