• Screen and evaluate candidates for technical skills and cultural fit.
• Support interview panels by creating technical questions or take-home assessments when needed.
• Ensure consistency and fairness in candidate evaluations.
• Analyze recruitment metrics to identify areas for improvement in technical hiring.
• Act as a thought partner to continuously refine hiring processes, tools, and strategies.
• Collaborate across functions (HR, Engineering, Operations) to align hiring goals with organizational needs.

Qualifications

• Proven experience in a technical recruitment, HRBP, or technical advising capacity (e.g., tech recruiter, hiring manager, or technical consultant).
• Solid understanding of technical roles and concepts (e.g., software development, cloud, DevOps, data).
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, remote-first environment.
• Experience using ATS, HRIS, and collaboration tools (e.g., Workday, Greenhouse, Jira, Slack).
