We are seeking a driven, high-performance Technical Recruiter to source, engage, and place top-tier tech talent in a fast-paced, metrics-driven environment. This opportunity offers uncapped earning potential for someone who thrives under pressure, moves with urgency, and is genuinely passionate about connecting people with the right roles.
Job Summary

• Own the recruitment lifecycle — from sourcing and screening to offer negotiation and placement
• Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified technical candidates through proactive outreach, networking, and referrals
• Partner consultatively with hiring managers and clients to deeply understand technical roles and team needs
• Source passive talent using LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, boolean search, and creative outreach strategies
• Manage candidate relationships with a high-touch, responsive approach that reflects your personal brand
• Operate with an entrepreneurial mindset and ownership mentality in a performance-based environment

Minimum Requirements

• 2–10 years of experience in recruiting, technical sourcing, or a people-facing role
• Demonstrated track record of tenure and growth, with 2–3 years in recent roles strongly preferred
• Proven success in a high-performance, metrics-driven recruiting or talent acquisition environment
• Strong sourcing, cold outreach, and pipeline generation skills across technical disciplines
• Competitive, financially motivated, and driven by uncapped earning potential
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with a strong sense of urgency and accountability
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills — with both candidates and clients
• Self-starter with a hunter mentality — you build your pipeline, you don't wait for it
• Coachable and resilient, with the ability to adapt quickly and operate with autonomy

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience recruiting for technical roles (software engineering, data, DevOps, infrastructure, etc.)
• Background in staffing, agency recruiting, or RPO environments
• Familiarity with ATS platforms (Bullhorn, JobDiva, Greenhouse, Lever, etc.) and LinkedIn Recruiter
• Demonstrated ability to build and grow a candidate network within a technical vertical
• Prior experience in a commission-based, performance-reward culture
• Genuine interest in technology, the hiring market, and helping candidates find the right fit
