About TubeScience 🚀
TubeScience is a high-growth video advertising company headquartered in Los Angeles, helping the world's top consumer brands win at scale. We're data-obsessed, fast-moving, and built on a culture of testing, learning, and relentless improvement.
You'll be plugged directly into an exciting American company that operates at the pace and ambition of the best LA tech startups — working closely with leadership to build the teams that drive our growth.
The Role 🎯
You will be the owner of technical hiring at TubeScience — responsible for building our engineering and product organisation from the ground up. Join the Talent Strategy Team and help us supercharge our talent acquisition engine using performance marketing principles. You'll own the sourcing strategy, advise hiring managers, and run a rigorous, candidate-first process from intake to close.
Key Responsibilities 🔑
- Lead all technical hiring across TubeScience — you own the entire engineering and product talent pipeline, end to end.
- Source proactively and creatively: go beyond LinkedIn to technical communities, GitHub, Stack Overflow, engineering meetups, and referral networks.
- Partner closely with engineering leadership and hiring managers to understand technical requirements, team dynamics, and the profile of candidates most likely to succeed.
- Build and implement role-specific sourcing strategies, not generic pipelines — each search should reflect the specific technical domain and seniority level.
- Create a high-quality, personalised candidate experience that reflects TubeScience's culture and moves fast without sacrificing rigour.
- Apply data-driven insights to track pipeline health, identify drop-off points, and continuously improve hiring processes and time-to-hire.
What We're Looking For 🧠
- At least 4 years of experience in technical recruiting within a high-tech or startup environment — specifically hiring software engineers, data roles, or product managers.
- Demonstrable ability to evaluate technical profiles independently: you can assess a CV for a senior backend engineer, ML engineer, or data scientist without needing a hiring manager to pre-screen every candidate.
- Hands-on experience with technical sourcing channels beyond LinkedIn — GitHub, Stack Overflow, technical communities, Slack groups, or similar.
- Proven track record of running full-cycle searches for hard-to-fill technical roles in competitive markets.
- Strong collaboration and stakeholder management skills.
- Excellent negotiation and closing skills — you understand what engineers value and how to build compelling offers.
Why TubeScience 💡
- Work at the intersection of performance marketing and technology — a fast-moving, high-impact environment.
- Your hires directly shape the company's growth trajectory; every role you close matters.
- A culture that rewards ownership, sharp thinking, and continuous improvement.
- Competitive base salary + performance bonus.
- Be part of a world-class LA tech company, in-person with the team that's building it.

What We Do
As one of the fastest growing startups in Los Angeles, we're revolutionizing the way in which companies approach successful video advertising. Our team of award-winning Producers, Editors, Directors, Engineers, and Performance Marketing Managers are building a global studio where we can conceptualize, shoot, and produce hundreds of videos per day. Unlike traditional advertising agencies that pitch creative concepts for companies, hope they will perform, and outsource filming, we design videos that are guaranteed to convert. We use data to guide our creative process and leverage testing and analysis to make adjustments to react to users in real-time. What's atypical about the company: We're fast and data-driven: our teams develop concepts in the morning, shoot/edit in the afternoon, launch in the evening, and iterate the next day based on real-world performance. We’re a behavioral R&D lab at the core: We put 2,000+ video experiments per week, watched by tens of millions of people per day, that give us deep insights into how people make decisions. Over the past couple years, we’ve built an enormous library of IP around human behavior and visual communication. We work on a pure pay for performance basis. Zero production fees for video. Clients only pay us if our videos outperform anything they’re running internally.
