Technical Recruiter

Must-haves

• You are smart, relentless, and fluent enough with technical work to reach engineers credibly. You do not need a recruiter title.
• Evidence you can run outreach, campaigns, and market mapping, and that you build your own tooling or agents when the manual path is too slow
• 3 to 5 years of high-output work, in recruiting, engineering, sales or similar
• U.S. citizenship (required for export control).

Priority deliverables in the first 6 months

• Pipeline Generation: Partner with recruiters and engineering leaders to define ideal candidate profiles, search strategies, and market-mapping priorities.
• Outbound Sourcing: Utilize advanced sourcing channels (Boolean search, GitHub, Stack Overflow, LinkedIn Recruiter, and AI tools like SeekOut, HeyReach, Clay) to find passive technical talent.
• Initial Engagement: Craft personalized, high-response-rate outreach messages and conduct initial pre-screens to assess technical alignment, motivation, and interest.
• Data & Tracking: Maintain clean, up-to-date candidate data in our Applicant Tracking System (ATS), tracking conversion metrics and sourcing funnel health.
• Market Intelligence: Provide regular feedback to engineering teams regarding talent availability, market compensation trends, and competitive positioning

How We Work

• At Aurelius we work what we call, 5+X. Our core operating hours are 5 days a week, Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm Pacific Time.
• The X is the honest acknowledgment that hard work sometimes takes more. For engineering, that means late nights and weekends during sprints and ramp-up periods.
• For growth, ops, and support, it means conferences, deployments, and events when the mission calls for it.
• This role is onsite 5 days a week in San Francisco.
