Recruitment is the production line of this business. Come and run it.
We promise every client a dedicated engineer, and a replacement within 15 business days if the fit is wrong. Those are recruitment promises, and you are the one who keeps them.
You run a hiring engine that never stops: a warm pool of assessed engineers ready before anyone resigns, a fast and fair process, and hard data on why people join and why they leave.
You are our first people hire, reporting to the founder, who started out in recruitment in New Zealand. You take over a written playbook and make it better, then you build the people function as the team grows toward Head of People.
You work 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Manila time, Monday to Friday, remotely, with occasional meetups in BGC, Taguig.
Pay
Monthly compensation package: PHP 55,000 to 62,000. Placement within the range is based on our technical assessment.
Why people join us
- Build it, do not inherit it. We are early. The standards, the habits and the culture you set now are the ones the next hundred people will work by.
- Direct line to the founder. No layers of management and no approval chains. You bring the problem and the fix, and we decide together, fast.
- AI-equipped from day one. A company MacBook, Claude, and Syncro with AI tooling built in. You learn the way the best IT teams will work for the next ten years, and you get paid while you learn it.
- A tour of duty, with a promotion in sight. You agree an 18-month plan with us: the outcome you own, the certification you will earn, and the role you move to next. At month 12 we sit down together and plan your next tour.
- Strong pay, always on time. We aim to pay in the top quarter of the Philippine market for every role. Payroll is never late. We fund your certifications, and we pay tenure bonuses at 12 and 24 months.

AImagineers Managed IT is part of AImagineers Software Philippines OPC, an AI engineering studio based in BGC, Taguig.
