Senior Technical Recruiter, Security

Harvey•San Francisco, CA

16d•$126,000 - $200,000

About The Position

As Harvey's first fully dedicated security recruiter, you will own end-to-end hiring across our security organization — including application security, infrastructure security, detection and response, trust and safety, and security leadership. This is a full-cycle role with real greenfield opportunity: you'll build the pipelines, establish the sourcing playbooks, and develop the hiring manager relationships that set the foundation for how Harvey attracts and closes security talent for years to come.

Requirements

7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with at least 3–4 years focused on security roles (AppSec, infrastructure security, detection and response, GRC, or security engineering)
Deep familiarity with the security talent market — you know the communities, the conferences, the career paths, and what motivates this candidate pool
Proven track record closing security hires at a fast-growing tech or AI company
Strong ability to build trusted relationships with technical hiring managers and become a genuine partner to security leadership
Comfort working in ambiguity and building process from scratch — this is a first-of-kind role, not a backfill
Low ego, high ownership — you'll source your own candidates, manage your own pipeline, and collaborate without needing a playbook handed to you
Fluency in data and metrics; you use pipeline health to drive decisions, not just report on them
Genuine curiosity about the security space — you keep up with the landscape, understand why top security talent cares about mission and technical challenge, and can speak credibly to candidates about what Harvey is building

Responsibilities

Partner closely with security leadership to deeply understand team structure, role requirements, and the technical nuances that differentiate strong security candidates
Build and own a high-quality pipeline of security talent across disciplines — application security, infrastructure security, detection and response, governance, risk, compliance, and security engineering
Develop sourcing strategies specific to the security market, including community engagement, conference presence (e.g. Black Hat, DEF CON, BSides), and targeted outreach to passive candidates
Advise hiring managers on security talent market dynamics, compensation benchmarks, and how to position Harvey competitively against other high-growth AI and tech companies
Design and refine security-specific interview processes that are rigorous, structured, and candidate-respecting
Maintain data integrity in Ashby and use pipeline metrics to identify bottlenecks and drive hiring velocity
Serve as a subject matter resource for the broader recruiting team on security hiring — sharing market intelligence and helping calibrate on profiles
