Top SchoolSpencer Allen is a founder and talent leader with 13 years recruiting experience focused on Los Angeles and national rapid-growth tech startups, known for a relationship-driven, consultative approach that consistently delivers hard-to-fill technical roles. He built and scaled hiring programs from employee #9 to 35+ at Instil, achieving gender parity and strong neurodiversity/LGBTQ representation while shaping culture, employer brand, and interview processes. As founder of Fulcrum Hire he maintains full-desk ownership and deep technical sourcing expertise, partnering with notable tech brands and driving high close rates through diligence and transparency. Spencer also brings hands-on experience placing niche AI/ML and platform engineering talent at early-stage firms, and has functioned as a fractional recruiter to align headcount strategy with shifting product roadmaps. Outside work he co-organizes LA’s largest JavaScript meetup, trains with a masters swim team, and channels creative energy into photography and short-form video—assets he’s used for employer branding and candidate storytelling. An openly queer, neurodivergent advocate, he integrates trauma-informed mental health and recovery perspectives into inclusive hiring and workplace culture.
