Reducto is the agentic document platform for leading AI teams who demand enterprise performance at scale. We provide a comprehensive toolkit for working with documents the way a human would, combining custom in-house and leading frontier models to power efficient and accurate document workflows.

We’ve grown rapidly, increasing revenue 8x year over year and partnering with hundreds of companies, from leading AI teams like Harvey, Vanta, and Scale, to enterprise customers across FAANG and top trading firms.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a contract-to-hire Technical Recruiter to support a surge in engineering hiring. You’ll plug directly into our existing recruiting infrastructure and work closely with our in-house recruiter and engineering leadership to source, screen, and close exceptional technical talent. This engagement starts as a 3-month contract at 40 hours per week, with the explicit goal of converting to a full-time role for the right person.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who wants to prove their impact quickly, get deep exposure to a high-growth AI company, and earn a permanent seat on the team.

What You’ll Do:

• Own full-cycle recruiting for a set of open engineering roles, from sourcing through offer close

• Build and manage high-quality pipelines of passive technical candidates via LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, Ashby, and outbound outreach

• Partner with hiring managers to calibrate on role requirements and technical profiles quickly

• Conduct phone screens and coordinate interview loops with minimal oversight

• Maintain clean pipeline data and provide regular updates on funnel health, outreach performance, and time-to-hire

• Advise on offer strategy and help close competitive candidates in a tight market

You’ll Thrive Here If You:

• Have 3–5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally at a high-growth startup or agency supporting tech clients

• Can ramp quickly with limited context — you’re used to being handed open roles and figuring it out

• Are genuinely curious about technology and can hold credible conversations with engineers about the roles you’re hiring for

• Operate with urgency and strong judgment in fast-moving, ambiguous environments

• Are highly organized, keep your ATS clean, and communicate proactively with hiring managers and candidates

• Are interested in a long-term opportunity — you’re not just looking for a contract, you want to find a home

Bonus points if you:

• Have recruited for ML, AI infrastructure, or developer tooling roles specifically

• Are proficient with LinkedIn Recruiter, Ashby, Gem, or similar sourcing and ATS platforms

• Have closed competitive offers against Big Tech or well-funded AI labs

• Have prior contract-to-hire experience and know how to hit the ground running

Engagement Details

• Type: Contract-to-Hire (starting as Independent Contractor, 1099)

• Initial duration: 3 months, with the intent to convert to full-time

• Hours: 40 hours per week

• Location: In-person, San Francisco office

• Rate: Competitive, commensurate with experience

This role begins as a contract engagement. Full-time benefits and equity are not included during the contract period but will be part of the full-time offer upon conversion.
