About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced and driven Senior Technical Recruiter / Sourcer to help us build the team at a critical stage of growth.

This is a hands-on recruiting role. You’ll own searches from initial talent mapping and sourcing through candidate engagement, assessment, and close, partnering directly with hiring managers and company leadership along the way.

We’re looking for someone who is polished, resourceful, and comfortable operating with significant autonomy. You should know how to take an ambiguous or difficult search, develop a strategy, find the right people, and drive the process forward without requiring significant oversight.

What You’ll Do

• Own full-cycle recruiting for technical and other critical roles across the company, with an emphasis on engineering and highly specialized talent.
• Build targeted sourcing strategies for difficult-to-fill roles rather than relying primarily on inbound applicants.
• Proactively identify and engage exceptional passive candidates through LinkedIn, referrals, networks, events, research, and creative sourcing channels.
• Develop a strong understanding of our technology, organization, and talent needs so you can credibly represent the company in the market.
• Partner directly with hiring managers and senior leaders to define profiles, calibrate searches, assess talent, and keep hiring processes moving.
• Conduct thoughtful candidate screens and develop an informed point of view on candidate quality and fit.
• Manage multiple searches simultaneously while maintaining urgency, organization, and a high bar for candidate experience.
• Drive candidates through the process from first outreach through offer and close.
• Use recruiting data and market feedback to identify challenges, adjust search strategies, and advise hiring managers.
• Maintain accurate, disciplined pipeline management and recruiting data in our ATS.
• Help improve recruiting processes, tools, and practices as we continue to scale.

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of recruiting for technical talent, ideally within hardware, deep tech, energy, semiconductors, robotics, advanced manufacturing, or another highly technical environment.
• Demonstrated ability to source and close difficult-to-find candidates rather than relying on inbound pipelines.
• Strong full-cycle recruiting skills and the ability to independently manage searches from kickoff through close.
• Excellent communication and executive presence; you can build credibility with senior candidates, engineers, hiring managers, and executives.
• Strong judgment and the confidence to challenge, calibrate, and advise hiring managers when needed, while maintaining a flexible, partnership-first attitude. 
• High level of ownership. You identify what needs to happen and move it forward.
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where priorities may change and not every process has already been defined.
• Highly organized and able to manage multiple searches without sacrificing responsiveness or candidate experience.
• Genuine curiosity about technical roles and the ability to learn enough about unfamiliar disciplines to recruit them effectively.
• Collaborative and low ego - willing to jump in wherever needed to help the team hit its hiring goals.

Please note: This role requires working on-site 5 days a week, at either our SF or Reno location.
