Sr. to Mid level Engineering Recruiter

Technical Engineering Headhunter

We're looking for a relentless, laser-focused Technical Engineering Headhunter. Location: Onsite | Denver Tech Center | Company: REC – Engineering Talent Experts

REC is a powerhouse in engineering recruiting, connecting elite technical minds with the firms building tomorrow's infrastructure. We don't just fill roles—we hunt, pitch, and close top talent in civil, mechanical, water, structural, and electrical engineering.

We move fast. We grind harder. If you're looking for a laid-back gig, this isn't it.

Who we're looking for: A real recruiter—not a résumé reviewer. Someone who gets a rush from finding and flipping passive candidates into active hires. Someone who can handle rejection, think creatively, and stay sharp under pressure. Your work ethic better match your ambition.

Your day-to-day:

• Source like a sniper—LinkedIn, cold calls, meetups, referral mining.
• Own the relationship with hiring managers—don't just "take reqs," challenge them.
• Relentlessly recruit top-tier engineers in a highly competitive talent market.
• Think like a marketer—pitch roles in ways that attract and convert.
• Track, report, and optimize your process. No fluff. Just data and results.
• Stay on top of industry shifts—know what engineers want before they ask for it.

What you bring:

• 1–5 years of agency recruiting experience (engineering preferred)
• Killer phone skills—you thrive in high-energy conversations
• Self-motivation so strong it's borderline annoying (we love that here)
• The hustle and hunger to compete and win daily
• Ability to manage multiple reqs without dropping the ball
• Grit. Period.

What we offer:

• Competitive base salary + commission (uncapped earning potential)
• Health, dental, and vision benefits
• PTO + paid holidays
• Professional growth in a company that wants you to win
• A fast-paced, no-nonsense culture where results matter

This is not a remote role. We work onsite in the Denver Tech Center. Collaboration and energy are part of our edge. If you're not ready to be here, we're not your people.

Final word: If you want to cruise through your day, swipe left. But if you're ready to work hard, make money, and build something real, welcome to REC.
