You'll join as Senior Recruiter, leading complex hiring across Product, Design, and business functions (Marketing, Sales, Finance, People, Operations). This is an independent, portfolio-owning role where you'll partner closely with hiring managers and functional leaders to translate business needs into structured hiring plans and execute challenging searches.
Key responsibilities include: independently leading full-cycle searches for senior, specialized, and difficult-to-fill roles from kickoff through offer acceptance; advising hiring managers on candidate profiles, evaluation criteria, and hiring tradeoffs; building targeted sourcing campaigns and relationships with sought-after talent, including passive candidates; guiding assessments, shaping closing strategies, and leading offer negotiations; using data and market insights to diagnose recruiting challenges and align stakeholders on improvements; and mentoring teammates while developing AI agent workflows to streamline recruiting operations.
The role is based in-person at Mirage's NYC headquarters in Union Square. The company is well-funded (raised $75M in Series C, per TechCrunch March 2026) and backed by top-tier investors including Sequoia, Andreessen Horowitz, Kleiner Perkins, Index Ventures, and General Catalyst, plus notable angel investors.
QUALIFICATIONS:
- 5+ years of recruiting or related people functions experience, including 3+ years independently managing and closing full-cycle searches
- Track record hiring across business or technical functions, including senior, specialized, and difficult-to-fill roles
- Sound judgment in clarifying hiring needs, assessing candidates, and advising leaders, supported by data and market insights
- Strong sourcing and closing skills; experience engaging sought-after talent and navigating competitive offer negotiations
- Collaborative approach with clear communication, reliable follow-through, and cross-team partnership experience
- Humility, self-awareness, openness to feedback, and commitment to knowledge-sharing
- Startup or high-growth technology experience is a strong plus
