Recruiter

We're looking for a driven and creative Tech Recruiter to join our Search Team in Manila. This is an on-site, in-office position—and it's not your typical recruiting desk job. This is a hunter role focused on finding exceptional tech talent in software engineering, AI/ML, and data.

We want someone who thrives on actively sourcing developers and technical professionals, picking up the phone, thinking outside the box, and building robust pipelines. If you have a salesperson's mindset—competitive, persuasive, and results-driven—you'll excel here. We especially value recruiters with a proven sales background and a knack for approaching technical candidates in innovative ways.

• Proactively source and headhunt tech talent across multiple specializations: Software Engineers (Backend, Frontend, Full Stack), AI Engineers, ML Engineers, Data Scientists, Data Analysts, and related technical roles.
• Apply a sales-driven approach to tech recruiting—pitching opportunities, overcoming objections, and closing top engineering talent.
• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle: sourcing, outreach, technical screening coordination, interviewing, and closing.
• Develop creative, personalized strategies to attract both active and passive technical candidates through cold calling, networking, referrals, LinkedIn, GitHub, Stack Overflow, tech communities, and other innovative channels.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with hiring managers and technical leads to understand team needs, tech stacks, and project requirements.
• Keep pipelines updated and provide clear, timely updates to stakeholders.
• Consistently hit and exceed recruitment targets and KPIs.

• Proven experience in tech recruiting or sales, ideally in agency recruiting, high-volume technical search, or business development roles.
• A hunter mentality—comfortable with outreach, cold calls, and pitching opportunities to software engineers and technical professionals.
• Understanding of technical roles and the ability to speak credibly with engineers about technologies, frameworks, and development practices.
• Strong persuasion, communication, and negotiation skills with the ability to influence and close hard-to-find technical talent.
• Creative mindset—you don't just wait for candidates to apply, you find innovative ways to reach engineers where they are.
• Resilient, persistent, and competitive spirit with the drive to succeed in a challenging market.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple technical searches simultaneously.
• Must be able to work on-site at our Manila office full-time.

• Competitive base pay + performance-based bonuses tied directly to your success.
• Career growth opportunities in a fast-paced, expanding tech company.
• A collaborative and energetic team environment that celebrates wins.
• The chance to make a real impact on our company's growth and technical team culture.
• On-site work environment that fosters collaboration, learning, and team synergy.

We're looking for a sales-driven Tech Recruiter with a true hunter mentality to join our Search Team in Manila. This is an on-site, in-office position—and make no mistake, this is a sales role disguised as recruiting.

If you're the type who gets energized by the chase, lives for the close, and treats "no" as just the beginning of the conversation, this role is for you. You'll be hunting down elite software engineers, AI/ML specialists, and data professionals who aren't actively looking—and convincing them why they should be.

This isn't about posting jobs and waiting. This is about prospecting, pitching, objection handling, and closing deals—except your product is opportunity and your commission comes from landing top technical talent.

• Hunt and close elite tech talent: Software Engineers (Backend, Frontend, Full Stack), AI Engineers, ML Engineers, Data Scientists, Data Analysts, and other in-demand technical professionals.
• Sell the opportunity—cold call, prospect, and pitch roles to passive candidates who aren't looking but should be listening.
• Overcome objections like a pro—counter offers, relocation concerns, timing issues—you know how to navigate and close anyway.
• Build your pipeline from scratch using creative prospecting methods: cold outreach, LinkedIn headhunting, GitHub scouting, tech community networking, referrals, and any channel that gets results.
• Negotiate and close—manage offers, handle counteroffers, and seal the deal when candidates are on the fence.
• Work the numbers—track your metrics, manage your funnel, and consistently hit activity and placement targets like any top sales performer.
• Partner with hiring managers to deeply understand what they need, then go out and sell candidates on why this is their next career move.
• Compete and win—this is a high-energy, target-driven environment where top performers are recognized and rewarded.

• Sales background strongly preferred—we want recruiters who think like salespeople, or salespeople ready to transition into tech recruiting.
• Hunter DNA—you're relentless, competitive, and motivated by the thrill of the chase and the win.
• Cold calling champion—you're not afraid to pick up the phone 50+ times a day and turn strangers into candidates.
• Persuasion and influence skills—you know how to build rapport quickly, handle objections, and move people to action.
• Resilience and grit—rejection doesn't faze you; it fuels you. You bounce back and keep pushing.
• Curiosity about tech—you don't need to code, but you should be genuinely interested in technology and able to have credible conversations with engineers.
• Creative prospector—you don't just rely on LinkedIn; you find engineers where they hang out and approach them in ways that break through the noise.
• Metrics-driven—you live by your numbers: calls made, conversations had, candidates submitted, offers closed.
• Competitive streak—you want to be #1 on the leaderboard and you're willing to outwork everyone to get there.
• Must be able to work on-site at our Manila office full-time—collaboration, energy, and team competition happen in person.

• Aggressive commission structure—your earnings potential is directly tied to your closings. Top hunters make top money.
• Performance-based bonuses and incentives—we reward results, not just activity.
• Clear career path—prove yourself as a hunter and grow into senior search, team lead, or business development roles.
• High-energy, competitive team culture—daily wins celebrated, leaderboards tracked, and top performers recognized.
• The thrill of the hunt—every day is a new opportunity to prospect, pitch, and close game-changing talent.
• On-site environment built for winners—surround yourself with driven teammates who push you to be better.

If you're a killer salesperson looking for your next challenge, or a recruiter who's always been told you "act more like a salesperson"—this is your role.
