Principal Recruiter – Technical Recruiting

interface.ai
San Francisco, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 7/7/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/5/2026
The Mission

Interface.ai and BankGPT are building an AI that knows your entire financial life and acts on your behalf. Not a dashboard. Not a chatbot. A new kind of product: personal financial intelligence that aggregates every account you have, understands your real situation, and continuously optimizes your financial life — finding better rates, negotiating bills, moving money, matching products, executing on goals.

The Role

We’re hiring a Principal Technical Recruiter to partner directly with our Head of People and work closely with our Principal 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

  • 7 years of technical recruiting experience in a similar environment
  • Demonstrated startup / scale-up experience, ideally Series A-B Stages
  • Strong domain preference with Experience recruiting Tech 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 San Francisco and act as a culture carrier
  • Is energized by the idea of BUILDING success vs INHERITING it

Why This Role Is Special

  • True Principal 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

Benefits:

  • 💡 100% paid health, dental & vision care
  • 💰 401(k) & financial wellness perks
  • 🌴 Discretionary PTO paid parental leave
  • 🧠 Mental health, wellness & family benefits
  • 🚀 A mission-driven team shaping the future of banking

WHY INTERFACE.AI

Series A

  • $30M raised
  • Cash-flow positive — we're not burning cash hoping the product works. It works. Customers are live, revenue is real, and the mission — bringing intelligent financial services to everyday Americans — is one you can explain to your family without a slide deck.

You'll work directly with Bruce Kim (Co-Founder) and Srinivas Njay (CEO) — founders who understand engineering deeply and give their VP the authority and trust to actually run the global function. We offer top-of-market base, significant early-stage equity, comprehensive benefits, and a modern SF office that's worth showing up to.

The team we're building is small enough that your judgment shapes everything. The market we're in is large enough that what you build will matter for a long time.

Compensation Range: $200K - $220K

Salary : $200,000 - $220,000
