Apply WHY WE’RE LOOKING FOR YOU
In this role, you’ll be on the front lines of hiring high-impact talent across technical teams. As Retool continues to grow and power mission-critical tools for some of the world’s biggest and best teams, you’ll play a key role in shaping the people who build the tools that drive our customers’ success.
You’ll partner closely with technical leaders to lead full-cycle recruiting, from sourcing, and pipeline strategy through closing candidates. You’ll develop a deep understanding of Retool’s product, customers, and vision, and translate that into a compelling story for candidates. Along the way, you’ll bring best practices to hiring, iterate on what’s working, and use data and metrics to guide decisions and surface risks early.
Beyond managing pipelines, you’ll act as a trusted and strategic thought partner to hiring managers at varying stages of growth. You’ll help them define roles, calibrate talent, and build teams that can scale effectively—ultimately ensuring the organization has the people it needs to execute on Retool’s ambitious goals.
WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH
The Talent team at Retool is small, collaborative, and highly impactful. Recruiting has been a team sport here, and we’re proud of the recruiting-forward culture we’ve built across the company. You’ll partner closely with other recruiters, coordinators, and hiring teams to set goals, deliver a stellar candidate experience, and support ambitious hiring plans.
We’re a diverse bunch with a variety of backgrounds: some of us come from outside tech, others from long careers in it. We’re a slightly sarcastic, dedicated, and hard-working group, who values curiosity, candor, and kindness (matcha and GIFs included). We’re excited to grow our team with people who want to help shape both our culture and how we work.
