Founding Recruiter – Technical Recruiting

interface.ai
Palo Alto, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 12/18/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 1/16/2026
Banking is being reimagined—and customers expect every interaction to be easy, personal, and instant.

We are building a universal banking assistant that millions of U.S. consumers can use to transact across all financial institutions and, over time, autonomously drive their financial goals. Powered by our proprietary BankGPT platform, this assistant is positioned to displace age-old legacy systems within financial institutions and own the end-to-end CX stack, unlocking a $200B opportunity and potentially replacing multiple publicly traded companies.

Ultimately, our mission is to drive financial well-being for millions of consumers.

With over two-thirds of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, 50% holding less than $500 in savings, and only 17% financially literate, we aim to put financial well-being on autopilot to help solve this problem.

The Role

We're hiring a Founding Technical Recruiter to partner directly with founders and technical leadership to scale our Technology teams.

You will play a central role in shaping the technical bar, hiring philosophy, and team composition during a pivotal growth phase.

What You'll Do

  • Own end-to-end recruiting for technical roles across Engineering, AI/ML, Product, Platform, DevOps, and Security
  • Partner closely with founders, and senior technical leaders on role definition and hiring strategy
  • Build high-quality pipelines through proactive sourcing and targeted outreach
  • Run rigorous, founder-level screening conversations focused on signal and depth
  • Maintain an extremely high bar—optimize for long-term builders, not short-term hires
  • Design structured interview loops and help drive hiring decisions
  • Independently manage priorities in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment

What We're Looking For

  • 4–8 years of technical recruiting experience in a similar environment
  • Demonstrated startup / scale-up experience, ideally Series B–D
  • Strong domain preference with Experience recruiting GTM talent for AI or Customer Experience companies
  • Proven ability to work directly with founders and senior technical leaders



  • Self-managed, comfortable operating with ambiguity and outcome-oriented
  • Willingness to be on-site in Palo Alto and act as a culture carrier

Why This Role Is Special

  • True founding recruiter mandate with ownership and influence
  • Ability to shape the technical DNA of a category-defining AI company
  • Meaningful equity and direct impact on long-term company success

Location: Palo Alto, California

Experience: 4–8 years in similar roles

Compensation:

  • $180,000 – $200,000 base bonus
  • $200,000 in equity
