Is there a tool/platform to recruit qualified female job candidates for startup roles?

Hey Laurens, there are a bunch of great groups and tools out there. Tech Ladies is a fantastic community business created by @allisonveronica you should look at.

Collaborative HR tech that lets you collaborate with the whole team is a good place to start. The more people weighing in, the less chance that gender biases will influence your hiring decision. You can also pin down the ideal characteristics for the position so you aren't just hiring based on gender or "gut feeling". Recruitee also allows for custom screening surveys, as well as job description templates that are optimized for search engines. Here's an article explaining how to use HR tech to reduce gender biases: http://bit.ly/2fnM7Np

I love a couple of suggestions here already (Hire Tech Ladies and Hire More Women in Tech, specifically) but smart, user-friendly recruiting software can *definitely* help with this, too – especially considering you can source directly from startup sites like AngelList with a handy-dandy Chrome Extension on the Breezy HR platform. Easily implement a structured interview process to remove as much bias as possible from the recruiting process. Simple to set up and get started sourcing, vetting, and hiring the diverse teams of tomorrow. Give it whirl, I bet you and your team will ❤ it.

Idk if this is the tool you were referring to, but it has a lot of resources to help find more qualified women and underrepresented groups.

This is also a good tool to check your job adverts aren't inadvertently putting of great female candidates by using gendered terms.
