Why we need you

At Mandolin, people are our greatest advantage. Every new hire meaningfully shifts the trajectory of our company, especially at this stage. As our Technical Recruiter, you’ll be on the front lines of building the team—partnering with leadership to identify needs, telling our story to candidates, and ensuring we hire exceptional technical talent.

Every candidate you connect with is a chance to change not just the future of our company, but the future of healthcare. If you’re energized by the idea of telling our story, inspiring top talent, and helping to assemble a mission-driven team, this role is your opportunity to make an outsized impact.

What you’ll do

  • Own the end-to-end recruiting process for technical roles (engineering, product, design, etc.).

  • Partner with founders and hiring managers to define role requirements, ideal candidate profiles, and interview processes.

  • Build and manage a high-quality candidate pipeline through proactive sourcing, networking, and referrals.

  • Run a smooth, thoughtful candidate experience from first outreach through offer acceptance.

  • Serve as an ambassador of Mandolin’s mission and culture, crafting compelling outreach and employer branding.

  • Experiment and refine—what works at 30 employees won’t work at 60; you’ll help us evolve our approach as we scale.

Must-have experience

  • 5+ years of full-lifecycle technical recruiting experience, with at least 2 years in an early-stage startup (<100 people).

  • Proven track record of hiring senior technical talent (Staff/Principal Engineers, Engineering Managers, Product Managers, etc.).

  • Strong sourcing skills, including outbound strategies and building diverse pipelines.

  • Ability to manage and close multiple searches simultaneously in a fast-moving environment.

  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills with candidates and hiring managers alike.

  • Highly organized, process-oriented, and data-driven in how you run searches.

  • Comfort wearing multiple hats—helping with G&A or go-to-market recruiting as needs arise.

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience hiring in healthtech, AI/ML, or other highly technical industries.

  • Familiarity with Ashby, Juicebox, and other recruiting tools.
