Technical Sourcer / Senior Technical Sourcer (Remote)

We're living through a fundamental shift in how people discover, evaluate, and purchase products. The next generation doesn't respond to traditional marketing -- they build relationships with brands through authentic social interactions, seek recommendations from communities they trust, and expect personalized experiences that feel human, not corporate.

At Nectar Social, we're building the AI-native social operating system that enables this new era of commerce. We believe every social interaction should deepen the relationship between brands and their communities while creating genuine value for both sides.

Founded by ex-Meta product and engineering leaders, we've raised over $30M in total capital from investors including GV and True Ventures. We work with brands like Oura Health, Caraway, e.l.f. Cosmetics, Kosas, OLIPOP, and many more. We're building the future of social commerce -- where community, conversation, and commerce converge.

We're looking for a Senior Technical Recruiter to build and execute the talent strategy for our core Engineering and Product teams. Reporting directly to the Head of Talent, you’ll partner closely with our founders, and Director of Engineering, to attract, engage, and hire world-class technical talent.

In this role, you will be the primary architect of our technical talent pipeline. You’ll help define how we evaluate technical talent, build rigorous engineering interview loops, and position Nectar as a premier engineering destination in the AI space.
