Starbridge is seeking a Recruiter based in NYC to help us identify, qualify, and engage world-class talent as we scale. You will play a critical role in shaping our global hiring strategy and ensuring a strong candidate experience across regions and functions.

You will partner with hiring managers to source, screen, and assess candidates across technical and go-to-market roles, and in some cases drive candidates through later-stage interviews. Your work will directly impact our ability to scale with top-tier talent in a competitive market.

If you are energized by fast-paced environments, have a keen eye for technical aptitude, and thrive in high-ownership roles, we’d love to meet you.

Responsibilities & Impact

  • Own candidate screening & qualification: Conduct resume reviews and interviews to assess skills, experience, and culture fit across technical and business roles, largely in the United States.

  • Partner with hiring managers: Collaborate with leadership to define role requirements, interview processes, and success profiles.

  • Drive candidate pipeline in US/NYC: Manage inbound applications, referrals, and sourced candidates to ensure steady funnel progression.

  • Support later-stage interviews: Where needed, conduct deeper evaluations (technical or competency-based) to accelerate decision-making.

  • Ensure a world-class candidate experience: Communicate clearly, provide timely feedback, and represent Starbridge’s brand and mission authentically.

  • Act as a trusted advisor: Provide market insights on compensation, candidate availability, and recruiting best practices in the EMEA region.

What You Bring

Must Have

  • Exceptional written & verbal communication skills

  • 3+ years experience in recruiting in a high-growth, SaaS environment.

  • Demonstrated ability to independently qualify, screen, and progress candidates through hiring processes.

  • Strong interviewing skills with the ability to assess both technical and behavioral competencies.

  • High attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and a proactive communication style.

  • Ownership mentality: you thrive in ambiguity, move quickly, and bias toward action.

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with modern recruiting platforms and tools (e.g., Ashby, Greenhouse, Gem, Juicebox, etc.).

  • Technical literacy—comfortable discussing software engineering concepts, tools, and stacks at a high level.

  • Prior experience scaling recruiting in early-stage companies.

Why Join Starbridge

  • Ownership: Your impact will be as large as you want it to be; we are an incredibly flat team that rewards high performers very quickly.

  • Autonomy: You’ll have freedom to innovate and iterate alongside the team.

  • Team: Work alongside sharp, collaborative colleagues who value craft and execution.

  • Mission: Help modern companies sell into a $1.5T public sector with better intelligence.
