Job description

About Aerones

Aerones is a global leader in robotic wind turbine maintenance. Our autonomous rope-descent robots perform blade inspections, cleaning, and repairs at heights that are inaccessible to humans - making renewable energy infrastructure safer, faster, and more cost-effective to maintain. Headquartered in Riga, Latvia, we operate across Europe, the US, and beyond, with a mission to accelerate the energy transition.

The Role

We are growing fast and need a Senior Recruiter to own full-cycle hiring across all departments -from engineering and operations to commercial and corporate functions within Latvia and US Operations. You will be a strategic partner to hiring managers, shape our talent acquisition processes, and help build the team that is redefining wind energy maintenance.

What You Will Do

• Own the full hiring cycle from brief to offer, spanning multiple countries and business functions.
• Keep talent pipelines warm and well-stocked so we are never starting from scratch when a new role opens.
• Hunt for great people before we need them - through LinkedIn, communities, events, referrals, and channels others have not thought of yet.
• Get deep into each team's reality: what they're building, who they need, what the market looks like, and what it will take to close.
• Keep the process moving - push back when needed, align stakeholders, and ensure every candidate gets a clear and timely experience.
• Grow our presence in the talent communities that matter - universities, professional networks, and niche industry circles across our key markets.
• Put Aerones on the map as a destination employer - tell our story at events, online, and through every touchpoint candidate experience.
• Use data to understand what is working: time-to-fill, pipeline quality, source effectiveness - and act on what you find.
• Pitch in on HR team projects beyond recruiting - onboarding, engagement, culture-building - because great talent strategy goes beyond filling seats.
• Work closely with our HR team to move the needle on our broader people agenda as Aerones grows.
• Several years of hands-on full-cycle recruiting experience in a fast-paced, internationally operating company.
• A history of hiring across borders - different countries, different functions, different talent landscapes.
• A real professional network you can activate, not just a high connection count.
• You spot opportunities and make moves - you do not wait to be told what to do next.
• Genuine enjoyment of building relationships - staying in people's orbit, not just filling roles and moving on.
• The backbone to hold your ground with a hiring manager moving too fast, and the patience to nudge one who is stalling.
• You know how to find the person who is not actively looking - and how to get them interested in what Aerones is building.
• You follow what is happening in talent markets and use that knowledge to plan ahead, not just react.
• You handle competing priorities without dropping the ball and stay composed when things shift quickly.
• Strong English communication, written and spoken.

We believe great work starts with feeling valued and supported. That’s why we are building an thoughtful, competitive benefits and perks to help you thrive — professionally and personally — through every step of your Career with us. You will be eligible for:

• Salary from 2,000 EUR to 3,000 EUR per month (before Taxes)
• A Birthday Gift
• High-impact work Shape the team building robots that climb 200m wind turbines.
• Global reach Recruit across international markets alongside a diverse team.
• Competitive package Salary aligned with your experience and market benchmarks.
• Growth & autonomy Own your work, influence the function, and grow with the company.
