About the role
We’re looking for a scrappy, high-ownership recruiter to build and run talent at Tennr. You’ll be our first in-house recruiting hire, responsible for sourcing, closing, and building the hiring engine that scales with us. You should be energized by rolling up your sleeves, moving fast, and building from zero.
What You’ll Do
-
Own end-to-end recruiting across all functions — from technical to go-to-market to G&A.
-
Partner with our executive team and hiring managers to define roles, write job descriptions, and shape hiring plans.
-
Build and manage a strong top-of-funnel: sourcing, outbound, and creative channel strategies.
-
Drive a fast, high-quality hiring process with great candidate experience.
-
Track pipeline metrics and use data to drive improvements.
-
Hire and manage a team of recruiters to support scale.
-
Partner with the VP of Operations to build a best in class onboarding for new hires.
What We’re Looking For
-
5–8+ years of recruiting experience, ideally with time spent at a fast-growing startup.
-
Proven ability to make high-quality hires across functions (bonus for technical hiring experience).
-
A builder mindset — you’ve created or scaled recruiting systems/processes from scratch.
-
High agency and bias for action; you move quickly and don’t wait for permission.
-
Strong communicator who can collaborate closely with execs and hiring managers.
About Tennr
Today, when you go to your doctor and need to be referred to a specialist (e.g., for sleep apnea), your doctor sends a fax (yes, in 2024, 90% of provider-provider communication is a 1980s fax). These are often converted into 20+ page PDFs, with handwritten (doctor’s handwriting!) notes, in thousands of different formats. The problem is so complex that a person has to read it, type it up, and manually enter your information. Tennr built RaeLLM™ (7B—trained on 3M+ documents) to read these docs, talk to your doc to ensure nothing is missed, and text you to help schedule your appointment so you can get better, faster.
Tennr is a NYC-based tech company that launched out of Y Combinator and is backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Foundation Capital, The New Normal Fund, and other top investors.
What We Do
Tennr reads documents from incoming faxes passing through healthcare practices and automates essential tasks like scheduling and qualifying patient visits. By automating that paperwork with Tennr, practices receive more patient referrals and reduce billing errors by 98%, significantly growing revenue.
