SECUREVISION · LOS ANGELES (IN OFFICE) OR REMOTE, US · FULL-TIME · SOURCER
Since 2015 we have partnered with hundreds of investment-backed tech companies, from seed stage through enterprise, and fill roles across GTM, engineering, and G&A. Our clients include NerdWallet, Affirm, GrubHub, Chili Piper, Danaher, Konica Minolta, and Samsara. We have 496 reviews on G2 with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating.
We were built on one conviction: the gap between a good hire and a great one is exponential, not marginal. Every talent acquisition solution we build is sustainable, predictable, reportable, and scalable.
The role
You will be embedded with a venture-backed hardware company in Los Angeles that is scaling its engineering team fast. You own the top of the funnel: finding the engineers who build hardware, getting them interested, and handing them to recruiters ready for a real conversation. Inside the client's Slack, their ATS, and their hours, working alongside SecureVision recruiters and the client's internal recruiting team.
Behind you is the SecureVision RPO engine: a team lead and a delivery lead invested in your performance, a sourcing stack built for outbound at scale, and a decade of process and market expertise you can pull from on any search.
What you will own
- Talent maps for hardware engineering roles across electrical, mechanical, autonomy, firmware and embedded software, and manufacturing and NPI: target companies, teams, and communities where these engineers work.
- Calibration sets within 48 hours of each intake. You build the 10 profiles per role that recruiters walk through with the hiring manager.
- Outbound campaigns live within 48 to 72 hours of kickoff. Multi-touch, multi-channel outreach written so engineers actually answer.
- Response rate. You test messages, subject lines, and targeting, and you report what moves reply rates week over week.
- Screening on paper. Every candidate you hand off has been checked against the role's actual stack, stage fit, and location or on-site requirements, with notes the recruiter can use.
- Inbound coverage for assigned roles when the team needs it.
- Scheduling support for recruiter screens and hiring-manager interviews.
- Clean ATS and CRM data. Every prospect, touch, and status lives in the client's system and stays current.
What the first 90 days look like
- Week 1: calibration sets delivered within 48 hours of each intake. Outreach live within 48 to 72 hours.
- Weeks 2 to 3: full pipeline on your priority roles.
- First 30 days: your sourced candidates reaching hiring-manager interviews, and reply rates improving.
- Days 30 to 60: additional roles added to your plate.
- By 90 days: sourced candidates make up a meaningful share of hires on your roles.
Experience we are looking for
- 2+ years of technical sourcing in a high-growth, fast-paced environment. In-house or agency.
- Experience sourcing engineers, ideally hardware roles: electrical, mechanical, firmware and embedded software, autonomy and robotics, or manufacturing, NPI, and test engineering.
- A background supporting a robotics, aerospace, automotive, IoT, industrial, or consumer hardware company is a plus.
- Working technical vocabulary. You can read a hardware engineer's resume and tell PCB design and Altium from mechanical CAD, embedded C/C++ and RTOS from application software, and DFM from test automation.
- Expert-level LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean search skills. You know how to find engineers who are not on LinkedIn much.
- Outreach writing that gets replies from passive, heavily recruited engineers.
- Comfort working inside client ATS and sourcing tools, with a bias toward clean data.
Who does well here
- Persistent and curious. You like figuring out where hard-to-find people are.
- Data-minded. You track your own funnel and change what isn't working.
- Comfortable in a fast, hands-on, high-ownership environment that moves at startup speed.
- Organized enough to run several searches at once without giving up quality.
- Strong written communication.
Why this role
- In office in Los Angeles alongside the hardware teams you source for, or remote anywhere in the US.
- A team lead and delivery lead invested in your performance, plus a sourcing stack most internal teams do not have.
- A path into full life cycle recruiting if that is where you want to go.
- Full-time W2 role with SecureVision with a flexible compensation package that is tailored to your geographic location and level of experience.
- Comprehensive benefits suite designed to support your well-being, which includes healthcare coverage, paid time off (PTO), and paid company holidays.
