Talent Sourcer- Full Time

Perficient X is building an AI-native consulting business designed to move faster, solve more complex problems, and develop exceptional talent as part of the work. Our model brings together experienced practitioners and high-potential early-career engineers in small, high-impact teams that deliver real client outcomes while building the next generation of AI consulting talent.

We are seeking a Strategic Talent Advisor to help shape how Perficient X scales by influencing who we hire, how talent develops, and what organizational capabilities we build over time. As the Strategic Talent Advisor, you will serve as a trusted advisor to Perficient X leadership and a builder of the talent strategy, systems, and workforce decisions that shape how the business grows. You will work across leadership, hiring teams, pod leads, and enterprise HR to strengthen the full talent engine: attracting experienced AI practitioners, designing scalable early-career pathways, shaping development experiences that accelerate readiness, and advising on the organizational choices that enable a high-ambition business to scale with intention. This is a rare opportunity to help architect the talent model behind a new kind of consulting venture - and to ensure talent strategy is a source of competitive advantage, not simply operational support.

Lead recruiting strategies for both experienced AI practitioners and high-potential early-career talent, building proactive pipelines rather than relying on reactive hiring

Shape cohort onboarding and development experiences that prepare early-career talent to contribute quickly in client-facing pod environments

Advise leaders on workforce planning, team composition, performance, and readiness across both experienced and emerging talent populations

Use data and talent insights to monitor pipeline health, readiness, attrition risk, and the overall effectiveness of the pod talent model

Help strengthen Perficient X culture, employer brand, and retention by creating a compelling experience for both senior practitioners and early-career hires

8+ years of experience in HR, talent, or people leadership, ideally in a high-growth, technology, consulting, or AI-forward environment

• Proven success recruiting senior technical talent through proactive sourcing and relationship-building
• Experience with campus recruiting, early-career development, or cohort-based onboarding programs for technical talent
• Ability to operate as a strategic business partner, influencing workforce planning, org design, and talent decisions at the leadership level
• Strong analytical instincts and comfort using data to guide decisions, monitor talent health, and improve outcomes
• Executive presence and the ability to build credibility with senior leaders, practitioners, and early-career talent alike
