Descripción del empleo

Ex-software engineer? Want to help the hottest AI companies build their technical teams?

Bluebird is a boutique search firm built on one premise: every consultant has worked in the roles we fill. Our clients now need help securing top technical and engineering talent across Australia, so we’re building a dedicated technical desk, and you’d build it with us.

The role

You’ll build and own our technical and forward deployed engineering desk end to end: client relationships, search, assessment and placement. Because you’ve written production code, you’ll spot real engineering ability in a 20-minute call. We already have clients with technical hiring requirements, so you'll have some roles to support on day 1.

What you’ll do

• Help some of the world’s leading AI companies find elite engineers, solutions engineers and forward deployed engineers
• Work closely with SaaS and AI founders and engineering leads, with our founder alongside you early on
• Own the full search lifecycle: scoping the brief, writing the role, sourcing, screening, interviewing, offer and reference checks
• Assess candidates properly, from architecture thinking to customer-facing ability
• Build proactive talent pipelines for the engineering and FDE roles our clients hire for repeatedly
• Advise clients with market data on realistic salaries, timelines and talent availability, and push back when expectations are off
• Track pipeline health and time to fill, and use our AI-assisted sourcing and screening tools to move faster than other firms
• Shape how the technical desk works, who it serves and how it delights and surpasses client expectations

You’ll probably fit if you

• Have a software engineering background with real production experience
• Have high agency, an entrepreneurial mindset, and the grit and discipline to deliver exceptional work
• Have a record of chasing outcomes without being told to (a side project, a side hustle, a startup, a scrappy promotion)
• Communicate well with founders, engineers and customers
• Want commercial upside and ownership, not a corporate ladder
• Are happy to be on the phone a lot
• Bonus: recruitment or agency experience

What you get

• $100k base plus uncapped commission. Realistically you should earn $225k in year 1 and $300k in year 2.
• Hybrid and flexible working
• Direct mentoring from a managing partner with 17 years in SaaS GTM
• A path to head the desk and grow a team beneath you
