About the role

About the Role

We are looking for a forward-thinking Founding Technical Sourcer to build and scale our sourcing function from 0 to 1. As the first in this seat, you won't just execute outreach; you will architect the entire sourcing strategy, set up our AI infrastructure, define key success metrics, and build the blueprint for how we attract top industry talent.

Key Responsibilities

  • 0-to-1 Strategy & Architecture: Define the vision, OKRs, and operational model for a sourcing function, implementing and optimizing the tech stack to drive scalable candidate generation.

  • AI & Workflow Automation: Deploy, configure, and manage AI sourcing agents to automate candidate discovery, top-of-funnel messaging, multi-touch engagement, and lead-nurturing workflows.

  • Talent Branding & Event Strategy: Design and execute targeted tech events, meetups, and develop campaigns to position our team as an employer of choice and generate sustained passive inbound pipeline.

  • Domain Mastery: Lead technical intake sessions with engineering leaders, utilizing a high slope of learning to master complex tech stacks, niche roles, and shifting priorities on the fly. You’ll operate your own funnel and generate leverage for others on the team.

  • Candidate Engagement: Craft hyper-personalized outreach strategies across various platforms, optimizing conversion metrics at every stage of the funnel.

Qualifications

  • 5+ Years of Technical Sourcing Experience in High Growth Environments: You’ve seen and impacted growth at Series D+ startups or hyper-scale companies with quantifiable talent bars.

  • 0-to-1 Sourcing Experience: Demonstrated success building sourcing strategies from scratch or acting as a lead sourcer defining strategy and metrics for a growing function.

  • AI & Technical Fluency: Hands-on experience implementing AI-powered sourcing tools, custom automation tools, and generative AI messaging systems.

  • Learning Velocity: High capacity to rapidly digest complex technical concepts, tools, and developer domains during hiring manager intakes.

  • Brand & Event Execution: Proven track record of leveraging community events, technical branding, and content to build passive inbound talent pipelines.

  • Data & Process Ownership: Strong analytical baseline to measure funnel conversions, iterate on outreach experiments, and report directly on strategy outcomes to leadership.
