About Us

Lorikeet is redefining what customer support looks like — and we're just getting started.

We build AI that handles complex, high-volume support for fintechs, healthtechs, marketplaces, and delivery services. Not chatbot-tier AI. The kind that actually resolves tickets, gives support teams their time back, and raises the bar for what software can do.

We're backed by over $50M USD from QED, Blackbird, and Square Peg, with backing from operators like Claire Hughes Johnson (ex-Stripe COO) and Cristina Cordova (Linear COO), plus founders of Canva, Atlassian, and Airwallex. We're the first company since Canva to be funded at early stage by all three of Australia's top VC funds — which tells you something about the calibre of people who've looked closely at what we're building and said yes.

Our customers include some of the largest telehealth, fintech, and marketplace companies in the US and Australia — many handling over a million support tickets a year. The problems are real, the scale is real, and the work matters.

If you want to build something that genuinely changes how businesses and customers interact — this is the place.


About the role and you

This is a contract sourcing engagement to support Lorikeet's growing recruiting pipeline globally. You'll work closely with our Recruiting team to build candidate lists, run outreach, and keep pipeline moving across a mix of technical and go-to-market roles across the US, UK, and AU markets.

We're a small, high-trust team that moves fast. This is a high-autonomy engagement — you manage your own queue, flag blockers early, and tell us what you're seeing in the market.

What you'll do
  • Build targeted candidate lists for active roles across engineering, GTM, and operations

  • Research and identify passive candidates using LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox, and AI-powered sourcing tools

  • Draft and send personalized outreach sequences — you'll adapt and iterate based on what's landing

  • Track sourcing activity and pipeline coverage in Ashby (our ATS)

  • Share weekly updates with clear metrics: outreach volume, response rates, qualified leads passed

  • Flag patterns you're seeing — calibration misses, market signals, title trends — we want your read

You might be a fit if you
  • Have 5+ years of sourcing experience in a high-growth startup or technical recruiting context

  • Are actively using AI tools in your sourcing workflow

  • Have strong written communication — your outreach is short, relevant, and human

  • Are proficient with LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean search

  • Are self-sufficient and organized

  • Have sourced for AI, infrastructure, or developer tooling companies

  • Are familiar with US and/or Australian talent markets

If you don't quite match this but have a unique background or experience you think we should consider, we strongly encourage you to reach out. We know first hand that diverse teams are higher performing and are proud that our team reflects a broad spectrum of identities and lived experiences.
