Recruiting Lead at Duet
About Duet
Duet is proving that nurse-practitioner-led care isn't just more accessible, it's better. We help NPs build and scale independent practices in communities too often overlooked by the health system: rural towns, immigrant populations, LGBTQ+ patients, and more. Backed by AI-driven tools that give independent NPs the backing of a much bigger system, our network of 100+ practices covering 400,000 annual visits has driven a 30% increase in preventative visits and a 35% drop in hospitalizations, the clearest sign yet that localized NP-led care means better outcomes.
We're a well-funded, early-stage company led by seasoned entrepreneurs and nurse practitioners, and backed by investors including Lerer Hippeau and Kairos.
Why Duet, Why Now
Independent primary care is disappearing, swallowed by hospital systems and private equity roll-ups, often pulling out of the communities that need it most. But 31 states now support autonomous NP practice, and the results back up what we've long believed. We built the first value-based care contracts for NPs with major payors, taking on real financial risk for outcomes. In our anchor market in New Hampshire, our network outperformed the state on total cost of care by 19%, proof that a solo NP in an underserved area can outperform a system ten times their size and get rewarded for it.
About the Role
We're hiring a Recruiter to own talent acquisition across all of Duet. This is a foundational role at a company growing fast — you'll build and run the systems that bring great people in and set them up to succeed.
You'll own end-to-end recruiting across every function, and support a handful of core people operations tasks as we scale. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to do real work, not manage a team that does it.
What You'll Do
Recruiting
Own full-cycle recruiting across all functions — clinical, operations, business development, technology, and everything in between
Partner with hiring managers to define roles, build pipelines, and close strong candidates quickly
Manage our ATS and keep hiring data clean, accurate, and useful
Coordinate external search partners for senior or specialized searches when needed
Represent Duet's brand and values at every touchpoint of the candidate experience
People Operations
Manage our PEO, including onboarding new hires, so everyone starts strong
Own day-to-day HR processes: PTO, leaves, employee relations, policy questions, and compliance
Maintain accurate records in our HRIS and ensure we're running clean processes as we scale
What We're Looking For
5+ years in recruiting, ideally at a high-growth startup, with some exposure to people operations or HR generalist work
You've done it all: sourced candidates, closed offers, run onboarding, and handled the occasional HR question
Strong executor — you don't wait to be told what to do, and you follow through
Organized and detail-oriented without being slow; you can manage competing priorities without dropping things
Clear, direct communicator who earns trust with candidates, employees, and leaders alike
Someone who wants to grow — this role will expand as Duet does, and we want someone who's excited about that
The salary range for this role is $140,000 - $160,000 plus bonus and equity. This role is hybrid in NYC.
