Company Description

Radix Health protects patients from surprise healthcare bills and fights for fair insurance payments to healthcare providers.

Specifically, we leverage the No Surprises Act's Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) process to quickly and efficiently boost out-of-network reimbursement for providers at scale.

We combine Silicon Valley software engineering with deep healthcare expertise, unlocking a seamless and transparent way for providers to embrace the new out-of-network reimbursement landscape.

Radix is led by ambitious co-founders with diverse prior experience, spanning from healthcare services Investment Banking / Private Equity to product management in high-growth tech.

We've quickly grown to be the leading solution in our space. Our pre-empted Series A was led by Bessemer Venture Partners in June, and we are growing rapidly (3x growth since April).

The Role

We're looking for our

Founding Recruiter , someone who will set the tone for all things hiring at Radix. This person won't just fill roles; they'll build the recruiting foundation that fuels our next phase of growth. From engineering and GTM to marketing, ops, and CS, you'll own the full recruiting lifecycle, act as a thought partner to leadership, and craft an outstanding candidate experience.

What You'll Do Own searches end-to-end

across multiple functions (engineering, GTM, marketing, ops, CS), handling both technical and non-technical roles. Close key hires quickly

by using creative sourcing strategies and persuasive storytelling about Radix's mission, tech, and growth story. Build recruiting infrastructure

through interview scorecards, hiring processes, dashboards, ATS workflows, knowing when to keep things scrappy vs. scale up. Source like a pro

leveraging boolean, LinkedIn Recruiter, and niche platforms to build targeted pipelines rather than relying solely on inbound. Partner with founders & hiring managers

as a strategic advisor, coaching, pushing back diplomatically, and helping shape hiring strategy. Balance volume & variety

by managing 5-10+ concurrent searches across departments without sacrificing quality. Champion the candidate experience,

ensuring every touchpoint reflects our values and leaves candidates feeling respected and excited. Report and iterate

using data (pipeline health, conversion rates, source of hire) to guide decisions and share insights with leadership. What We're Looking For

Full-cycle recruiting expertise

across diverse roles (engineering, GTM, ops, marketing, CS). Proven success closing roles fast

in competitive markets (bonus if you can point to metrics like time-to-fill or hires per quarter). Storytelling ability

- you can sell Radix to A-players who may not be actively looking. Strong sourcing chops

and experience with boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, and niche platforms. Process builder/operator mindset

- you know when to keep it simple and when to formalize. Stakeholder management finesse

- you can work directly with founders and hiring managers as a trusted partner. Experience juggling multiple roles

across different departments simultaneously. Startup/founding recruiter experience

(preferred) - you've set up ATS systems, created interview training, and built recruiting strategy from scratch. Health tech recruiting experience

is nice to have, but experience hiring for similarly complex industries (fintech, govtech, etc.) also works. Los Angeles-based

is a plus, but not a dealbreaker. #Perks
