About This Role:
A lot of technical recruiting jobs at startups are a sprint: a big hiring push, a pile of reqs, then a hiring freeze and a reorg. This isn't that. Our engineering hiring is steady and it's going to stay that way, so we want someone who'd rather go deep with a handful of engineering teams than churn through whatever's on fire this week. The tradeoff: you'll be expected to actually understand what you're hiring for and how your work impacts the business overall. You'll be a Talent Business Partner to the LiveKit team.
You'll thrive as a Senior Technical Recruiter if you:
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough problems
are focused on polish, detail and quality
are a fast learner, frequently picking up new tips, tricks, and skills
The best way to impress us is with thoughtful ways you'd implement AI in the recruiting process 😊
What You'll Do
Own 8-10 engineering and technical searches end to end, from kickoff to signed offer
Partner with engineering hiring managers on what the role really needs, and push back when the requirements don't match the market
Source hard: find the infra, backend, SDK, and AI engineers who aren't looking, and give them a reason to talk to us
Understand what candidates are motivated by and create a strategy to get them there
Build pipelines for the roles we hire for again and again, so new reqs don't start from zero
Run an honest, authentic and clear process emphasizing candidate experience that people talk about, even the ones we don't hire
Help build the systems the Talent team runs on, from sourcing playbooks to interview kits
