Senior Technical Recruiter (6-Month Contract)

About the Role

VRIFY is leading the global shift toward AI-assisted mineral discovery — putting the power of advanced AI directly in the hands of geoscientists. Following a $12.5M Series B raise and 475% YoY growth in our AI product, we’re scaling quickly — and building a world-class team is critical to that growth.

We’re hiring a Senior Technical Recruiter on a 6-month contract to lead and execute our in-house hiring efforts across Engineering, AI, Product, and Marketing. This role is all about driving results — sourcing, engaging, and closing top-tier talent that will help fuel our next phase of growth.

This is a hands-on role. There’s no “Head of Talent” yet — so you’ll be the tip of the spear. You’ll work directly with our executive team, own the talent acquisition process end-to-end, and lay the foundation for what could evolve into a larger function.

If you’re a recruiter who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys rolling up your sleeves, and wants to help build something meaningful without the layers of process and politics, we want to meet you.
