About the role

We’re looking for a high-performing Technical Recruiter to join our team - someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, is a sourcing powerhouse, and can own the full recruitment lifecycle from end to end. The ideal candidate is a hustler who’s as comfortable building talent pipelines as they are partnering with senior stakeholders, and has a proven track record of hiring top-tier engineering leaders.

What you’ll get to do

• Own and manage the end-to-end recruitment process — from job intake, sourcing, screening, scheduling, interviewing, offer negotiation, to hiring and onboarding.
• Develop and execute proactive sourcing strategies to attract high-quality talent across technical and non-technical roles.
• Build strong, consultative relationships with hiring managers at all levels to deeply understand current and future hiring needs.
• Maintain an active pipeline for critical roles, with a focus on engineering and leadership positions.
• Partner with HR and business stakeholders to identify opportunities for process improvements and contribute to broader talent initiatives.
• Help drive efficiency by leveraging tools, data, and systems to support scalable recruiting practices.

To succeed in this role, we think you should have:

• A minimum of 5 years of experience in full-cycle recruiting, either in-house or agency-side, with a strong emphasis on technical hiring.
• Demonstrated success in sourcing passive candidates using a variety of creative approaches.
• Proven ability to recruit and close engineering leaders and high-impact technical talent.
• Strong stakeholder management skills  - you know how to build trust, manage expectations, and drive outcomes.
• Experience hiring across multiple functions, including Engineering, Product, Business, and Commercial roles.
• Highly motivated, self-starter, and execution-focused — you get things done with urgency and precision.
• Comfortable working with ATS and HR systems; data-driven in your approach to recruitment.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and organizational skills.
• High business acumen and an understanding of how talent impacts growth and success.

What we can offer you

• Culture - We put our people first and prioritize the well-being of every team member. We’ve built a company where all opinions carry weight and where all voices are heard. We value and respect each other and always look out for one another. Above all, we are human.
• Learning - We have a learning and development-focused environment with an emphasis on knowledge sharing, training, and regular internal technical talks.
• Compensation - You’ll receive an attractive salary, pension, health insurance, annual bonus, plus other benefits.

What to expect in the hiring process

• A simple take-home assignment
• A technical interview with the talent acquisition team
• A behavioural and technical interview with a member of the TA leadership team.
