Job description

About Latent

Latent is the enterprise pharmacy intelligence platform. Our clinical AI streamlines prior authorizations, appeals, and 340B compliance, so patients start therapy faster and care teams spend less time on paperwork.

We raised an $80M Series A led by Spark Capital and Transformation Capital, with General Catalyst, McKesson Ventures, Conviction, and Y Combinator. 60+ health systems run on Latent, including Yale New Haven, Mount Sinai, UCSF, and Ochsner. We move fast, operate with high ownership, and build products that directly improve patient care.

The Role

We’re building a high-caliber technical team in a competitive market. This role owns the top of the funnel—finding, engaging, and building relationships with exceptional engineers before they’re actively looking.

This is not a resume-pushing role. It’s about taste, curiosity, and persistence.

What you’ll do

• Own outbound sourcing for technical roles (primarily software engineers)

• Identify high-signal candidates via LinkedIn, GitHub, referrals, and communities

• Write thoughtful, personalized outreach that actually gets replies

• Partner closely with recruiters and hiring managers to define “great”

• Experiment with sourcing strategies, messaging, and channels

• Track and improve funnel metrics (reply rate, pass-through, time to first convo)

• Build long-term candidate relationships, even when timing isn’t right

What We're Looking For

• You have 1–4+ years of technical sourcing experience (startup experience a plus)

• You enjoy the puzzle of finding people others can’t

• You care about quality over volume and hate spammy outreach

• You’re comfortable with ambiguity and like building from scratch

• You operate with urgency and take ownership

• Bias to action

• Consistent flow of high-quality technical candidates

• Strong reply rates driven by thoughtful outreach

• Hiring managers trust your judgment and taste

Nice to Have

• Interest in healthcare, pharmacy, or health technology

Why Join Latent

• Backed by top-tier investors including General Catalyst, Conviction, and Y Combinator

• Work alongside a high-caliber team building products our healthcare partners love

• Work on mission-critical problems at the intersection of AI and healthcare

• Real ownership and visibility

• High-impact role on a small, fast-growing team

• Opportunity to help define the sourcing playbook

• Close partnership with recruiters and founders

• Exposure to the strongest Tech Startup Eco-System

Benefits

• Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents

• Flexible PTO policy

• Paid parental leave

• Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot
