Senior Recruiter

About the Team

We have ambitious goals this year, including scaling hiring, strengthening our employer brand, refining our recruiting operations, and helping to build standout employee programs. We believe no task is too small or too big, and that mindset means everyone gets to work on high-impact, career-accelerating projects.

If you are excited about building systems, creating exceptional candidate experiences, and helping a recruiting function scale thoughtfully, we'd love to meet you!

The Role

We're looking for a Senior Recruiter to own full-cycle hiring for some of our most important roles. Your reqs will span engineering (AI/ML, research, applied AI, and infra), Product, Product Design, and non-technical teams like Success. You love to source, can go deep in a competitive AI talent market, and are just as comfortable running a polished Product Design loop the next hour. At the senior level, you shape how we hire, partner closely with leaders across the business, and help us land the talent that shapes Bubble's future.

What You'll Do

• Own full-cycle recruiting for AI engineering, product, design, and other priority roles, from intake through close.
• Build creative, multi-channel sourcing strategies that reach passive candidates other recruiters miss, especially in AI/ML.
• Partner with hiring managers as a trusted advisor: calibrate, pressure-test scorecards, coach on interviewing, and keep loops moving.
• Lead complex, cross-functional hiring initiatives (new teams, new interview loops, sourcing strategies) and influence decisions inside and outside the recruiting team.
• Own offer conversations end-to-end: sell the mission, navigate comp and competing offers, and land the hire.
• Use pipeline data to drive decisions and scalable improvements, and model Bubble's values and a strong feedback culture throughout.

Who You Are

• 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting with a sustained 80%+ offer-accept / close rate, including a strong track record hiring AI engineers. You've also recruited across Product, Product Design, and non-technical roles, and flexed your style, approach, and sell by function.
• Startup + big-company experience preferred. You've seen "good" at scale and can build from scratch when there's no playbook.
• Scrappy and resilient. You thrive in ambiguity and stay steady when reqs shift or candidates ghost.
• Strong, creative sourcer. You go beyond LinkedIn, tap non-obvious channels, and pull candidates nobody else has talked to.
• Excellent hiring manager partner. You push back when needed, calibrate quickly, build consensus through inclusive collaboration, and get invited back to every kickoff.
• Team player who raises the level of the people around you.

Nice to Have

• Experience hiring at frontier AI labs or AI-first startups.
• Experience building or upleveling a recruiting function (process, tooling, EVP, interviewer training).

Success in the First Year

• Quality hires delivered against a loaded AI engineering + cross-functional req list.
• 80%+ offer-accept / close rate sustained.
• Healthy pipeline conversion and time-to-fill on priority reqs.
• Strong hiring manager and candidate NPS.

Why Recruiting at Bubble

You'll be recruiting for a company at the intersection of no-code and AI, one of the most interesting places in tech to be hiring right now.
