Job description

The role is about finding and reaching out to many passive candidates each week for engineering, sales, and customer success openings. A strong candidate has one to three years of high volume sourcing, solid search skills, and the discipline to keep records clean in the applicant tracking system. Personal outreach that gets replies and close work with recruiters and hiring managers matter more than years of experience.

How it fits the AI era

AI tools speed up candidate research, search building, and outreach drafting, so the volume part of sourcing gets faster. What stays human is judging fit, writing messages that feel personal, and building trust with candidates and hiring managers. The role leans on AI to do more outreach without losing quality.

How it builds AI experience

Hands on use of AI sourcing platforms and assistants to build searches, draft messages, and summarize profiles is part of the daily work. At a company building an AI reasoning layer for security cameras, learning how AI products are described and sold helps when sourcing technical and sales talent. Building this means practicing with these tools and tracking which messages and searches actually convert.

Worth showing

• High volume sourcing
• Boolean and X ray search
• AI sourcing tools
• Personalized outreach
