About the role
We’re looking for a Technical Recruiter to help us build the team behind r.Potential. You’ll own full-cycle recruiting for engineering, data, infrastructure, security, and product roles, partnering closely with hiring managers to define needs, attract exceptional talent, and make thoughtful hiring decisions.
This is a hands-on remote role for someone who can build credibility quickly, source effectively in competitive markets, and bring structure and sound judgment to a fast-moving startup.
What you’ll do
- Own full-cycle recruiting for technical roles, from intake and sourcing strategy through offer acceptance.
- Partner with hiring managers to define candidate profiles, build interview plans, calibrate on talent, and drive timely decisions.
- Source and engage high-caliber passive candidates through direct outreach, referrals, networking, and recruiting partners.
- Tell a compelling r.Potential story and create a high-touch, thoughtful candidate experience.
- Advise leaders on market conditions, candidate availability, compensation, and process improvements.
- Maintain organized, accurate candidate data and activity in BambooHR.
- Help strengthen our recruiting operations, employer brand, referral program, and talent strategy as we grow.
- Use AI-enabled recruiting tools thoughtfully to improve speed and quality while maintaining strong human judgment.
What we’re looking for
- 4+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally within a high-growth startup or technology company.
- Demonstrated experience recruiting for AI, data platform, enterprise SaaS, cloud infrastructure, or cybersecurity teams, including roles across software engineering, data, infrastructure, security, and/or product engineering.
- Strong sourcing skills and a track record of engaging high-quality passive talent.
- A trusted, consultative approach with hiring managers and the ability to influence through clear, practical advice.
- Comfort working with urgency and ambiguity while maintaining a high bar for quality, follow-through, and candidate experience.
- Excellent communication, organization, and prioritization skills.
- Alignment with our operating principles: customer’s hardest problem, progress beats perfection, own the outcome, clarity beats cleverness, and build with humanity.
Bonus points
- Experience helping build recruiting processes in an early-stage environment.
- Familiarity with BambooHR or a comparable ATS.
- An established technical talent network.
What we offer
- The opportunity to help build a category-defining company at the intersection of AI, work, and enterprise transformation.
- A collaborative, high-performing remote team.
