Technical Recruiter

About MGT Insurance

MGT is the first AI-driven, neo-insurer focused on evolving commercial P&C insurance for the brokers and small business owners. By combining the expertise of industry veterans with state-of-the-art technology, we are ushering in the next evolution of commercial insurance and working to move the industry forward through the use of modern technology, better processes, and a rock-star team. We seek visionary leaders who thrive in dynamic, entrepreneurial settings, and excel in autonomous roles.

MGT Insurance is seeking a Technical Recruiter to own full-cycle hiring across Engineering, Data, Product, and the other technical functions that build and power MGT's platform. Reporting to the Senior Talent Lead, you will manage the end-to-end recruiting process for a wide range of technical roles at once, from individual contributor hires through engineering leadership searches.

You will need to context-switch quickly, whether that means sourcing a backend engineer one day and screening a data scientist the next, while keeping a high bar and a great candidate experience throughout. The right person is energized by technical variety, comfortable running many searches at once, and quick to learn new technical domains well enough to sell the role and assess candidates credibly with engineers.

What You'll Do

• Own full-cycle recruiting for technical roles including Software Engineering, Data and Analytics, Product, Design, and IT, from intake through offer

• Run intake sessions with engineering and product leaders to define role scope, must-have skills, tech stack and level expectations, and what will make a candidate successful

• Screen candidates for technical background, motivation, and fit, translating requirements into clear evaluation criteria and representing MGT's engineering culture and problems credibly

• Manage a high volume of concurrent searches across different technical specialties, levels, and hiring managers without letting any one process stall

• Partner with engineering teams to design and improve technical interview loops, including structured interviews, take-homes, and live coding or system design rounds

• Coordinate and schedule interview loops, gather and synthesize interviewer feedback, and drive timely debriefs and decisions

• Own the candidate experience end to end, with timely communication, clear expectations, and a smooth, professional process from first touch through offer

• Partner with hiring managers on offer construction, negotiation, and closing, including competing offers for in-demand technical talent

• Maintain accurate pipeline data and reporting in MGT's applicant tracking system

• Build and maintain a strong pipeline of technical talent for recurring or anticipated roles

• Continuously improve MGT's recruiting processes, templates, and practices as the company scales

What You Bring

• 3+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, with a track record hiring across multiple technical disciplines such as software engineering, data, and product

• Demonstrated experience sourcing technical candidates directly, not solely managing inbound applicants

• Strong technical fluency: you understand different engineering roles, levels, and stacks well enough to spot a strong profile, ask good screening questions, and talk to engineers as a credible partner

• Comfort managing a high volume of concurrent searches across different roles, levels, and hiring managers

• Strong communication skills, with the ability to engage skeptical or passive technical candidates and manage hiring manager expectations clearly

• Experience using an applicant tracking system to manage pipeline and reporting, including ownership of data hygiene and configuration

• High ownership and organizational discipline, so nothing falls through the cracks even with many open roles

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience recruiting at a startup or high-growth company, ideally in a technical or engineering-focused capacity

• Experience with Ashby specifically

• Insurtech, fintech, or financial services recruiting experience

• Experience recruiting for both individual contributor and senior technical leadership roles (Staff+, Director, VP)

• Experience hiring in specialized areas such as AI/ML, data engineering, or security

• Experience designing structured interview processes and technical assessments, and training interviewers

• Experience building recruiting reports, dashboards, or process documentation

• Comfort using AI tools to improve sourcing, screening, or recruiting workflow efficiency
