Tilt Finance

106d

About The Position

At Tilt (formerly Empower), we see a side of people that traditional lenders miss. Our mobile-first products and machine learning-powered credit models look beyond outdated credit scores, using over 250 real-time financial signals to recognize real potential. Named among the next billion-dollar startups, we're not just changing how people access financial products — we're creating a new credit system that backs the working, whatever they're working toward. We’re looking for an experienced Recruiter to join our US-based team on a 6-month contract. In this high-impact role, you’ll work closely with senior leadership to shape and execute hiring strategies across both business functions (finance, operations, support, and compliance) and technical teams (engineering, product, design, and data science). This is a unique opportunity to play a hands-on role in scaling our core US business while also helping us push the boundaries of what recruiting can be by thoughtfully integrating AI-driven practices into our workflows.

Requirements

• 5+ years of recruiting experience spanning both technical (engineering, product, design, data science) and business (finance, operations, compliance, support) roles.
• Ambidextrous recruiter: equally confident navigating technical and business domains.
• Exceptional sourcing and networking skills; resourceful, inventive, and resilient in finding the best talent.
• Process-minded: skilled at turning complexity into clarity and building repeatable, effective recruiting practices.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and change, thriving in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
• Self-starter with strong business acumen, influence, and relationship-building skills.
• Experience leveraging AI tools for sourcing, screening, or scheduling.
• Familiarity with Ashby ATS is a big plus.

Nice To Haves

Responsibilities

• Partner with senior leaders to deeply understand hiring needs and build strategies that deliver the right talent at the right time.
• Own end-to-end recruitment across a diverse mix of roles, seamlessly shifting between business and technical functions.
• Build and manage strong candidate pipelines, using creative sourcing and engagement strategies to attract top talent.
• Translate complex, fast-changing hiring priorities into clear processes that scale, ensuring recruiting is both organized and nimble.
• Run multiple searches at once with focus and agility, while keeping candidates and stakeholders aligned.
• Deliver an exceptional candidate experience from first touch to offer.
• Collaborate with the People team to continuously improve recruiting tools, systems, and workflows.

• Virtual-first teamwork: The Tilt team is collaborating across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting. You’ll get started with a WFH office reimbursement.

• Complete support: Find flexible health plans at every premium level, and substantial subsidies that stand up to global standards.
• Visibility is yours: You can count on direct exposure to our leadership team — we’re a team where good ideas travel quickly.
