## About the role

Pallet is hiring our first Lead Technical Recruiter, a high-impact IC role with true ownership over how we build our engineering organization. As we scale from ~100 to 200+ employees, engineering hiring is one of the most critical levers in the business. This role will own technical recruiting end-to-end — partnering closely with our Head of Talent, engineering leadership, and founders to hire across Product, Platform, FDE, and AI/ML roles.

## What they're looking for

- 5–10+ years of recruiting experience, with 3+ years owning senior technical roles end-to-end
- Proven experience hiring: Senior Software Engineers, Platform / Infra / SRE Engineers, ML- or data-adjacent roles bonus if you’ve also hired: Product Managers, Designers etc
- Track record of closing senior engineers in competitive markets
- Experience operating in high-bar, founder-led or early-stage environments
- Strong technical recruiting judgment — able to spot misalignment early and maintain a low false-positive rate
- Calm, credible communicator who can sell Pallet to engineers without hype
