Senior Technical Talent Acquisition Partner

Job Description:

We’re looking for a Senior Technical Talent Acquisition Partner who operates at the intersection of technical fluency and human connection — someone who doesn’t just fill roles, but builds relationships with engineers before a role even exists. You’ll be the person top technical talent trusts, the thought partner hiring managers lean on, and the architect behind pipelines that keep us ahead of the curve. If you get genuinely excited talking about distributed systems, ML infrastructure, and developer communities — and you know how to turn that passion into a compelling story for the world’s best engineers — this role was made for you.

WHO YOU’RE COMMITTED TO BEING

• A credible technical partner — you speak engineer. Not perfectly, but fluently enough to earn trust in a first conversation and hold your own on a deep-dive into a team’s stack.

• A proactive builder — you’re already cultivating relationships six months before a role opens, not scrambling to post a JD the day a headcount gets approved.

• A genuine ambassador — you tell our engineering story with authenticity and specificity. Candidates leave every interaction knowing exactly why this company is worth their attention.

• A strategic advisor — you push back thoughtfully, bring data to the table, and help hiring managers build smarter, faster, and more equitably.

• A generous teammate — you share what you know, mentor the people around you, and make the whole TA function sharper because you’re in it.

WHAT YOU’LL OWN

• Full-cycle technical recruiting across North America — from intake through signed offer — with accountability for candidate experience, quality, and time-to-fill.

• Deep partnership with engineering, product, and infrastructure hiring managers to understand what “great” actually looks like on each team (far beyond job descriptions).

• Targeted sourcing strategy design for hard-to-fill technical roles using Boolean, GitHub, LinkedIn, technical communities, and highly personalized outreach.

• Proactive talent pipeline development for high-priority disciplines — so warm relationships exist before urgency hits.

• Technical interview and assessment design to ensure rigor, equity, and a candidate experience we’re proud of.

• Delivery of technical talent market intelligence to TA and engineering leadership — comp trends, skill availability, competitor hiring patterns.

• Management of technical staffing partners including clear briefs and performance accountability.

• Employer brand building through engineering events, tech talks, open source community engagement, and online presence.

EXPERIENCE YOU’LL BRING

• 8+ years of technical recruiting experience with a proven track record closing software engineers, data scientists, and other technical specialists in competitive markets.

• Genuine technical fluency — you can read a JD, hold your own with an engineering team, and assess candidate fit without a CS degree.

• Expertise in sourcing passive technical talent through creative, non-traditional channels.

• Experience as a strategic recruiting advisor to engineering or product leadership, not just an order-taker.

• A history of building and maintaining pipelines — not just reactively filling roles as they open.

REQUIREMENTS

• Multi-discipline recruiting: Experience across frontend, backend, ML/AI, data, infrastructure, or security.

• High-growth background: Recruiting at a fast-scaling tech company or specialized technical search firm.

• Community presence: Active engagement in technical communities, open source, or developer ecosystems.

• Experience working within Workday as an ATS and integrated AI into your workflows.

• This is a remote role; however, applicants located within 45 miles of our Westlake/Dallas, TX office should expect to work on-site Tuesday through Thursday, with remote flexibility on Mondays and Fridays. This approach enables more effective collaboration, quicker decision-making, and a stronger culture, while still providing flexibility.

Why you’ll love working here:

• We work in a blended environment that supports collaboration, flexibility, and connection across teams.

• We are mission-driven, shaping the future of tech upskillling and delivering impact that matters.

• We foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, where everyone can contribute and thrive.

• We are always learning, creating an environment where you can take on new challenges, expand your skills, and grow with purpose.

• Benefits include competitive compensation, bonus eligibility, comprehensive medical coverage, unlimited PTO, wellness reimbursement, professional development funds, and more.
