Senior Manager, Talent Acquisition - Tech & Data

New York, New York, United States; San Francisco, California, United States

Flex is a growth-stage, NYC headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2025 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult. We’re here to change that! Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?

About The Role

We are looking for an experienced Senior Manager of Talent Acquisition to lead, mentor, and scale our high-performing Technical Recruiting team responsible for finding and hiring the world's best Engineering and Data talent. You'll be the strategic owner of our technical recruiting function, operating in a fast-paced, high-bar & hyper-growth environment. You'll serve as a key partner to our CTO and senior technical leaders, translating business objectives into a talent strategy that can meet the demands of our ambitious roadmap.
 
You will inherit and grow a strong team of senior talent partners and sourcers, setting the vision for operational excellence and an exceptional candidate experience. This role is ideal for a player-coach who thrives on taking ownership, building & refining scalable processes, and directly impacting the future of their team.

What You’ll Do

  • Strategic Ownership: Responsible for the end-to-end technical recruiting function across Engineering and Data. Develop and execute a comprehensive hiring strategy to achieve ambitious hiring goals across these departments.
  • Executive Partnership: Act as the primary talent acquisition partner to the CTO and senior engineering leadership. Use data and market insights to influence decisions, manage expectations, and report on progress against hiring plans.
  • Team Leadership & Effectiveness: Hire, onboard, lead and develop a high-performing team of talent partners and sourcers (both full-time and contract), fostering a culture of excellence and continuous improvement, in order to meet the scaling demands of the business.
  • Process Excellence: Help design, implement, and refine scalable, best-in-class recruiting processes that ensure a high-bar for talent and operational efficiency in a hyper-growth setting.
  • Resource Management: In partnership with the Director of Talent, optimize all external recruiting resources, including managing agency partnerships, contractor relationships, and recruiting tools to ensure a high standard of quality and ROI.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with the Director of Talent, People leadership, and Finance to ensure alignment on hiring philosophy, compensation, headcount planning, and talent programs.

Key Qualifications

  • 8+ years of progressive experience in Talent Acquisition, with at least 3+ years in a people management role leading and scaling technical recruiting teams.
    • Proven experience managing senior recruiters and sourcers, demonstrating the ability to develop and coach experienced professionals.
  • Track record of success during a "hyper-growth" phase at a high-growth technology company.
  • Exceptional stakeholder management with the abilities to influence; you have a history of building trust and credibility with senior executives, particularly C-level/VP-level engineering leaders.
  • Deep expertise in building and maintaining a high-bar hiring environment. You have successfully implemented thoughtful, structured, and unbiased hiring processes for top-tier engineering & data talent.
  • An analytical and systems mindset and the ability to use data for story telling, to drive decisions, and optimize team performance.
    • Takes pride in systems and quality control to ensure team optimization and process efficiencies. 
  • A blend of recruiting experience from both large, "best-in-class" tech companies and fast-paced, ambiguous startup environments.
  • A strong understanding of talent attraction with previous experience recruiting for a wide range of engineering and data profiles (e.g., Backend, Infrastructure, Product, Machine Learning, SRE, etc.).

The compensation range for this role will be commensurate with the candidate's experience and Flex's internal leveling guidelines and benchmarks. For working locations in NY/NJ/CA, the base salary pay range will be $185,000 - $215,000.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
