Help build the team behind complex healthcare software

Script Assist builds interconnected software for clinics, pharmacies and patients, supporting tens of thousands of prescriptions every month.

Our platform connects consultations, prescribing, payments, pharmacy operations and patient communications. Behind those journeys are substantial engineering challenges: multi-tenant SaaS, backend services, APIs, integrations, cloud infrastructure and workflows spanning multiple applications.

We’re growing—and looking for a Senior Technical Recruiter to take ownership of important hires, work directly with founders and technical leaders, and help improve how we recruit.

You’ll join a business with established recruitment playbooks and practical assessment processes. You’ll use those foundations, bring your own experience and help develop a recruitment function that can support our next stage of growth.

This is a dedicated recruitment role, with no HR administration or payroll responsibilities.

Why this opportunity is different

- Direct access to decision-makers. Work with founders, engineering leaders and hiring managers to understand what they need and move decisions forward.
- Interesting, demanding searches. Recruit people building and supporting complex production software, from senior engineers to implementation and customer-facing specialists.
- Ownership of the whole search. Shape the brief, identify the talent pool, engage candidates, assess relevance and manage the process through to joining.
- An established starting point. Build on structured hiring playbooks and assessments, with technical colleagues responsible for specialist technical evaluation.
- Room to improve things. Bring ideas, question ineffective steps and use research, data and AI tools to make recruitment more effective.

What you’ll do Understand the requirement and build the searchWork directly with hiring managers to establish what the person needs to achieve, which experience matters and how we will assess it.

Translate those discussions into clear candidate profiles, compelling job adverts, useful application questions and targeted sourcing strategies.

Research relevant employers, products and candidate backgrounds—including people whose experience transfers well even when their job title is different.





Find and engage strong technical candidatesOwn permanent IT recruitment and software-engineering hiring in India, including backend and full-stack developers, QA automation engineers, DevOps and cloud specialists, technical leads and other technology roles.

Use LinkedIn Recruiter, Naukri, Boolean search, headhunting, referrals and direct outreach to build relevant pipelines.

Explain the opportunity convincingly, understand candidates’ motivations and keep strong people engaged throughout the process.

Assess experience with judgementLook beyond technology lists and years of experience. Understand what candidates personally built, delivered or owned, and how that relates to our requirements.

Run focused screening conversations, identify gaps and present clear recommendations to hiring managers.

Coordinate practical assessments and technical interviews with the appropriate colleagues, ensuring each stage answers a useful question.

Keep hiring moving through to joiningManage candidate communication, interview scheduling, feedback, offer discussions and pre-joining engagement.

Maintain a clear view of priorities, pipeline progress and obstacles across multiple vacancies.

Take action when a search is struggling—whether that means improving outreach, revisiting a requirement, resolving a delay or discussing the market with a hiring manager.

Improve how we recruitUse recruitment data and feedback to understand what is working and where good candidates are being lost.

Apply AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini where they help with research, drafting, assessment preparation and workflow efficiency.

Check conclusions against evidence, retain your own judgement and propose improvements to the process.

As you learn the business, you’ll also support specialist hiring across implementation, technical customer success, product, delivery and other business functions.

What we’re looking for

You should bring

- Hands-on technical recruitment experience, including personal responsibility for successful permanent software-engineering hires in India.




- Experience working directly with hiring managers to clarify requirements and discuss candidate suitability.
- The ability to explain why a candidate’s experience is relevant, what remains uncertain and what should be tested next.
- Strong direct sourcing, candidate engagement, follow-up and offer-management skills.
- Experience handling senior, niche or otherwise challenging technical searches.
- An organised approach to managing several vacancies and keeping stakeholders informed.
- Curiosity about unfamiliar roles and the confidence to ask useful questions.
- A willingness to learn new tools, use AI thoughtfully and improve how work gets done.
- Clear spoken and written English, alongside spoken Gujarati and Hindi.

We are particularly interested in the work you have personally owned and the decisions you have made. Your current title and number of years alone will not determine whether you progress. Backgrounds that could fit wellYou may currently work in:

- Internal talent acquisition at a software, SaaS, product engineering or technology-services business.
- Embedded recruitment or RPO, working directly with a software client’s hiring managers.
- Specialist technology recruitment, owning permanent hiring assignments from requirements through to placement.

Previous healthcare recruitment experience is welcome but not required. You do not need previous experience with a particular AI assistant. You do need to be willing to learn, investigate and demonstrate your reasoning.

What success looks likeHiring managers trust your shortlists because you understand the requirement and explain your recommendations clearly.

Candidates understand the prospect, receive timely communication and stay engaged.

Searches move forward without constant chasing, and when something is not working, you identify the issue and bring a practical recommendation.

Over time, you take increasing ownership of complex hiring and contribute improvements that make the whole recruitment function stronger.

Working arrangementsYou must be based in Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar or within practical commuting distance, with availability for 2–3 office days per week.

Working hours are Monday–Friday:

- 1:30 PM–10:30 PM IST during British Summer Time.
- 2:30 PM–11:30 PM IST during UK winter time.

We are looking for someone who can join within 30 calendar days of accepting an offer. Immediate availability is not required.
