About The Role
The role owns full-cycle recruiting for engineering and product roles at a well-funded technology company, from sourcing strategy through offer close. This means building pipelines for hard-to-fill technical positions — backend, infrastructure, and data roles — while keeping hiring managers and candidates moving in sync.
As one of the early hires on the people team, this role directly shapes how the company scales: calibrating bar with interview panels, tightening the hiring process, and creating a candidate experience worth talking about.
Key Responsibilities
Manage full-cycle recruiting for 6-10 concurrent technical requisitions, from intake through signed offer
Source proactively using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean/X-ray searches, GitHub, and referral programs — not just inbound
Partner with engineering managers to write role specs, calibrate interview panels, and keep feedback loops under 48 hours
Run structured screen calls and debriefs; give hiring managers honest signal, not just pipeline updates
Own the candidate experience end-to-end: scheduling speed, communication quality, rejection conversations, and offer negotiation support
Track funnel metrics (time-to-fill, source mix, pass-through rates) in Greenhouse or Ashby and report monthly to leadership
Build always-on pipelines for recurring roles so future reqs don't start from zero
What We Are Looking For
3-6 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, in-house at a tech company or high-growth agency
Proven track record filling engineering roles (backend, infra, data) in competitive markets
Advanced sourcing skills: LinkedIn Recruiter, boolean search, sourcing tools like SeekOut or Gem
Hands-on experience with an ATS (Greenhouse, Ashby, or Lever) and structured interview processes
Comfortable pushing back on hiring managers and managing stakeholder expectations with data
Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience
Bonus: experience recruiting at a startup scaling from 50 to 200+ headcount; familiarity with compensation benchmarking (Pave, Radford); technical screen fluency
