As a Senior Recruiter, you'll drive engineering hiring, focusing on senior roles while collaborating with leadership to refine recruiting processes.
What is Blinq?
At Blinq, we believe the first interaction can spark opportunities that last a lifetime. That’s why we built the world’s #1 digital business card - an instant, intuitive way to exchange details - and that success has won our wedge into something bigger. Next, we’re building on that momentum to reshape how professionals stay connected – not just in the moment, but long after. In a world where follow-ups slip through the cracks and relationships are increasingly fragmented, we’re building the tools to keep people genuinely connected. If you’re driven to shape the future of human connection, we’d love to have you with us.
Why You’ll Love It Here
• Customers love it: Over 100K reviews and a 4.9/5 rating on the App Store - people around the world rely on Blinq to make that first interaction count.
• Rapid growth: Doubling ARR every few months, expanding into new markets, and rapidly building our team across Sydney, Melbourne, San Francisco, and New York
• Well-resourced: Backed by top VCs like Blackbird and Square Peg, we’re continuously investing in the people and tools that fuel our mission.
• A rare moment to join: We’re hitting an inflection point - big enough to have momentum, small enough for you to shape the journey.
• The way we work: We value real connections, inside and out - our offices buzz with creativity, and fresh ideas can come from anywhere. We’re big believers in the spark that happens when people come together in person. That’s why we spend three days a week collaborating in the office - trading ideas, solving problems face-to-face, and celebrating small wins. The rest of the week is yours to work wherever you’re most productive.
People & Talent at Blinq
Our People & Talent team is the heartbeat of Blinq, ensuring we’re always bringing on and growing the people who keep our mission alive. We champion a culture where everyone feels seen, supported, and motivated to do the best work of their lives. If you’re passionate about crafting a workplace that’s fast-moving, deeply human, and built for scale, you’ll feel right at home.
Role & Impact
You’ll build the team that builds Blinq. As Senior Recruiter, you’ll shape the future of our engineering capability. You'll partner directly with our founder, VP Eng, and Head of Talent to raise the bar on who we hire and how we hire them. This role is about craft, not coordination - a high-trust, high-impact position for someone who sees recruiting as a product, not a pipeline.
What You Will Do
- Drive impact — you'll own engineering hiring end-to-end with a strong focus on senior and critical engineering hires (e.g. Staff, Principal, and Leadership)
- Partner with our founder, VP of Eng, and hiring leads to deeply understand needs and build funnels that will put Blinq in a position to win
- Build creative, multi-channel, always-on funnels of high-calibre talent across both digital and in-person experiences
- Design and run recruiting processes that move fast and build strong candidate engagement
- Continuously evolve our assessment methods, interview design, and hiring rituals to drive quality over convenience
What You’ll Bring
- 7–10 years of full-cycle recruiting experience with a strong track record in building engineering teams
- World-class sourcing - you know what good looks like, you know how to find them, and you know how to hook them
- You’re obsessed with candidate experience, able to convert interest and leads into highly engaged candidates
- World-class partnership skills - you know how to build trust and credibility with leaders and hiring teams
- A growth hacking mindset - you think in systems, you move fast, you solve problems, and you use AI tools and your talent tech stack to multiply your impact and the quality of your work
What You Get
We’re serious about our mission to help the world connect, but we also make sure our own team is thriving - both in and outside of work. Here’s a taste of what you can expect:
• Equity & ownership: We’re building something massive, and we want you to share in the upside.
• Competitive salary & growth path: As Blinq grows, your role and compensation grow with it - no glass ceilings here.
• Generous paid time off: We encourage everyone to take at least 20 days fully disconnect each year, with a flexible policy beyond that.
• Parental leave: Inclusive policies to ensure you have the support you need for your family.
• Free food: Enjoy daily breakfast and lunch in the office, plus an always-stocked snack bar.
