Rolling Thunder Works

Retained Search & Fractional TA for Healthtech Startups

Senior hiring for healthtech startups, built by someone who's been the internal VP.

Rolling Thunder Works is an independent search and fractional talent acquisition practice founded by Jared Dymbort. I've spent 15+ years as the in-house talent leader at high-growth healthtech companies, including Signify Health (200 employees through IPO and $8B acquisition by CVS Health) and Covera Health.

I work with seed- through Series B founders who need to make senior hires or build recruiting infrastructure. Not as an outside agency. As someone who's sat in your seat and built the function from scratch.

Two ways to work together

Depending on where you are, I can run a dedicated executive search for a specific senior role, or help you build the recruiting infrastructure so you're set up to hire well on your own.

Retained Executive Search

VP and Head-of level roles

A full-cycle, retained search with structured process from intake through signed offer. Designed for founders who need to get a critical senior hire right the first time.

  • Structured role scorecard and target company mapping
  • 40–60 candidate research universe
  • 3–6 qualified finalists with written executive summaries
  • Reference checks, offer advisory, and 90-day guarantee
Flat fee, retained. Paid in three milestones.

Fractional TA & Advisory

Build your hiring function

Project-based or ongoing TA leadership for startups that need senior recruiting expertise without a full-time head count.

  • TA diagnostic and 90-day roadmap
  • ATS selection and implementation
  • Interview process and scorecard design
  • Employer brand and career site buildout
  • Fractional Head of TA (10–20 hrs/week)
