Job description

Ready to Join Tribe.xyz?

We’re redefining how fast-growing tech companies hire by combining data, AI, and human expertise to deliver world-class recruiting.

Our remote team spans across Europe, Asia, the USA, and South Africa, united by shared values of curiosity, clarity, impact, resourcefulness, and selflessness.

Tribe partners with some of the most ambitious companies in the world, including Wolt, Glovo, N26, Taxfix, Aleph Alpha, Statista, and About You, helping them attract and retain top talent at scale.

Our mission is simple yet bold: to build great teams for companies that have a positive impact on the world. By embedding seamlessly into our clients’ organizations, we combine strategic expertise, data-driven insights, and a human-first approach to fuel their growth.

We are partnering with one of the fastest growing AI startups to find a Senior Tech Talent Acquisition Partner who knows how to close hard-to-find engineering talent. We need a hunter who thrives in a high-velocity environment, acts as a strategic advisor to their Stakeholders and Engineering Leadership, and owns the full lifecycle, from sourcing to signature.

If you love the thrill of the chase and want to work directly with the US market, this is your next move.

Contract: Full-time B2B (Must be able to invoice as an independent contractor)

Location: Remote (Priority given to candidates based in EMEA)

What you’ll be doing:

• Full-Cycle Ownership: You will own the hiring process for critical technical roles (Software Engineers, DevOps, Product, Data). You aren't just a recruiter, you drive the process until the contract is signed.

• Strategic Headhunting: You don't wait for applicants. You proactively map the market, identify top-tier passive talent, and craft outreach that gets a response.

• Stakeholder Management: You will work directly with senior stakeholders and hiring managers. You challenge their assumptions, calibrate their expectations, and guide them on market reality.

• Data-Driven Hiring: You use data to identify bottlenecks and improve time-to-hire. You don't just "feel" like it's going well; you have the numbers to prove it.

• Bar-Raising: You ensure every hire adds to the culture and technical density of the team. You are the gatekeeper of quality.

Who You Are

• Time Zone Alignment: You are fully comfortable working NY / East Coast hours. This schedule fits your lifestyle, and you are able to maintain high energy and availability during these hours.

• Tech Fluent: You speak "Engineer." You know the difference between Java and JavaScript, you understand cloud infrastructure, and you can screen candidates for technical aptitude before they ever speak to a hiring manager.

• Senior Experience: 3+ years in full-cycle tech recruitment (Agency + In-house mix is ideal). You have closed senior/lead level engineers and navigated complex negotiations.

• Resilient & Proactive: You don’t take "no" for an answer easily. Ghosting happens, priorities change, but you keep the pipeline moving.

• English Mastery: Native or near-native English is essential. You need to write compelling pitches and negotiate complex offers with confidence.

Why You’ll Love It Here

• High Impact: You will be directly responsible for building the teams that build the product. Your hires will shape the future of the company.

• Autonomy: No micromanagement, just clear goals and the freedom to hit them.

• High-Caliber Team: You’ll be interacting with smart, engaged stakeholders who value efficiency and transparency.

• Global Exposure: Work with a world-class team and engage with top talent across global markets.

• Rest & Recharge: High performance requires high-quality rest. We offer unlimited paid vacation to ensure you stay sharp.

Please send us your CV in English.
