Technical Recruiter

The Role

We're looking for a Recruiter who can independently own searches from pipeline development through close. This is a hands-on role for someone who is comfortable sourcing their own candidates, managing inbound, partnering closely with hiring managers, and ultimately being accountable for hiring outcomes-not just recruiting activity.

Within your first 3-6 months, we expect you to build and manage healthy pipelines across your roles and consistently drive an average of 2-3 hires per month.

What You'll Do

• Own searches end-to-end. Partner with hiring managers to define the profile and interview process, build the pipeline, manage candidates through interviews, and close.
• Build your own pipeline. Proactively source and engage high-quality candidates rather than relying primarily on inbound or referrals.
• Create clarity with hiring managers. Develop a strong understanding of what great looks like, use candidate data and market feedback to sharpen the profile, and keep searches moving when there is ambiguity.
• Manage pipeline health. Know where every search stands, identify gaps early, and take action before a pipeline becomes a problem.
• Deliver consistent hiring outcomes. Build toward an average of 2-3 hires per month while maintaining a high bar for candidate quality.
• Help us get better. Bring judgment and ideas to how we source, interview, close, and operate as a recruiting team as Latent continues to scale.

What We're Looking for

• Experience recruiting for software and technology companies, with a strong understanding of how to identify and engage talent in competitive technical markets.
• Strong sourcing ability. You know how to build a pipeline from scratch and aren't dependent on inbound candidates or agencies to deliver.
• Experience owning searches end-to-end, including intake, sourcing, candidate management, hiring manager partnership, offer, and close.
• High ownership and accountability.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and moving quickly while still exercising good judgment.
• Strong communicator who can build trust with candidates and hiring managers without overcomplicating things.

Nice to Have

• A mix of agency and in-house recruiting experience, particularly at high-growth startups.
• Experience recruiting across different company stages-from early-stage startups to larger technology companies.
• Experience joining a company during a period of rapid growth and helping build recruiting processes without adding unnecessary complexity.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents
• Flexible PTO policy
• Paid parental leave
• Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot
