About the Role

We are looking for a seasoned and self-driven Senior Talent Acquisition Partner to join our team, with a focus on engineering/tech hiring and coverage across general functions such as commercial, finance, and operations. This is a high-impact individual contributor role, ideal for someone who works independently, partners closely with hiring managers, and brings strong insights into the Web3/crypto industry.

You will own full-cycle recruitment, provide market insights and reporting, and be a strategic partner in improving our TA processes—especially in sourcing and talent mapping. Fluency in Mandarin is essential, as you’ll engage with Mandarin-speaking stakeholders and candidates.

  • Act as a TA Business Partner, offering counsel and strategic input to hiring managers on talent market trends and hiring strategy.
  • Own and execute sourcing strategies, with a focus on building pipelines for technical and hard-to-fill roles in the Web3/crypto space.
  • Provide weekly reporting and analytics to hiring managers and the Head of TA, using data to track progress and identify improvements.
  • Conduct talent mapping and market intelligence to support proactive hiring and better decision-making.
  • Continuously review and enhance TA processes, especially around strategic sourcing and candidate experience.
  • Stay current with Web3/crypto talent trends, bringing insights into how to attract and engage top talent in the space.
  • Collaborate with People/HR teams on cross-functional initiatives.
  • Able to think outside the box to create new ways of sourcing and building a strong pipeline. Shows creativity in finding talent.

What We Are Looking For

  • 5–7 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with solid exposure to tech/engineering and generalist functions.
  • Strong understanding of the Web3/crypto industry, including key talent pools and hiring challenges.
  • Fluent in Mandarin and English, both written and spoken.
  • Proven ability to work independently and manage recruitment workflows with minimal supervision.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and business partnering skills.
  • Strong analytical mindset; comfortable working with recruitment metrics and reporting tools.
  • Experience with ATS platforms and sourcing tools (e.g., LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, Web3-focused platforms).
  • Prior experience hiring across APAC or in high-growth tech environments is a plus point.

You are responsible for ensuring that the personal data you provide is accurate and complete. If you provide us with personal data relating to another individual (for example, as a referee or emergency contact), you represent and warrant that you have obtained that individual’s consent in accordance with applicable data protection laws (including the PDPA) for us to collect, use, and disclose their personal data for the purposes described above.
