Avoca is a Series B AI startup transforming how home service companies engage customers through AI-powered conversational agents that handle inbound calls, lead qualification, and revenue generation. Backed by Kleiner Perkins, Meritech Capital, and General Catalyst with $125M raised and a $1B valuation, the company has grown 10x in 2025 and scaled to 150+ employees across NYC headquarters and Santa Barbara. As Technical Recruiter, you will own full-cycle hiring for Engineering and Product teams, partnering directly with hiring managers and leadership to build the technical talent bench driving Avoca's next growth phase. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role requiring you to define hiring standards, establish repeatable processes, and close candidates in a competitive market. Key responsibilities include: executing full-cycle recruiting for software engineering and technical product roles from sourcing through offer close; partnering with engineering leaders to define role requirements, calibrate interview loops, and build scorecards; proactively sourcing and building pipelines of top-tier technical talent through outbound sourcing, referrals, and creative channels; acting as trusted advisor to candidates articulating Avoca's mission and opportunity; driving fast, high-quality candidate experience end-to-end; building and refining scalable recruiting processes, tools, and metrics; using data to track pipeline health, funnel conversion, and time-to-fill; and representing Avoca's employer brand across sourcing channels and the technical community. Required qualifications: 5+ years full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally at high-growth startups; proven track record hiring software engineers, ML/AI talent, or similar technical roles at fast-scaling companies; strong sourcing skills with ability to find and engage passive candidates; excellent judgment assessing technical talent and partnering on hiring decisions; sense of urgency and ownership thriving in fast-paced, high-growth environments; sharp communication and negotiation skills; comfortable operating with high autonomy and building process from scratch; bias toward action and in-person collaboration. Nice-to-have: experience recruiting at companies scaling from Series B to Series C/D; familiarity with modern sourcing and ATS tooling (Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox).
