About the role

Universal Background Screening in Austin, TX is seeking a Senior Recruiter to build our talent acquisition function from the ground up and personally source and close high-quality hires. This is not a typical posting role; you will create process, systems, and standards from ambiguity and lead hiring as an early-stage company grows. You will wear both builder and doer hats, own full-cycle recruiting, implement an ATS and interview framework, and partner with leadership on org design and hiring

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
