About The Position

We are looking for a Technical Recruiter to join our Talent Acquisition team in a contract capacity. In this role, you will have the chance to build relationships with our engineering leaders and contribute to the hyper-growth of Klaviyo, influencing our product and culture tremendously through the exceptional engineers you bring into the company! You'll own your recruiting numbers (sourcing, screening, and hiring) and draw insights from analytics to make our hiring process smarter and more efficient.

Requirements

• 7+ years of recruiting experience, with significant experience hiring within software engineering, infrastructure, or related technical disciplines
• Strong sourcing expertise and passion for identifying passive technical talent, with the ability to assess technical resumes and career trajectories
• Working knowledge of engineering roles, tech stacks, and terminology sufficient to credibly engage engineers and hiring managers on scope and leveling
• Ability to influence and advise senior technical stakeholders on role scoping, leveling, and engineering talent market dynamics
• Data-driven approach to managing pipelines and measuring recruiting performance
• Comfortable operating in fast-paced, evolving environments
• High level of ownership, accountability, and sound judgment
• Ability to recognize the balance between business/engineering needs and providing a stellar candidate experience

Responsibilities

• Build pipelines of candidates: Our engineering org is consistently hiring across disciplines (backend, frontend, infrastructure, ML, and beyond), so a key aspect of this role is working with engineering hiring managers to develop strategies to find qualified, diverse technical candidates.
• Build talent networks through proactive market research, targeted outreach, and strong candidate experience.
• Own the process: From sourcing passive engineering talent to closing offers, you will be responsible for providing all candidates with an exceptional experience and ensuring Klaviyo is engaging with and hiring the exceptional engineers who will help scale our product and platform.
• Build relationships: Your empathy and customer-first approach will forge lasting relationships with both candidates and engineering hiring managers, and you'll act as a trusted advisor on technical hiring strategy.
• Be an ambassador: Whether through Klaviyo's engineering blog, technical recruiting events, or LinkedIn/GitHub outreach, you are an ambassador for Klaviyo's engineering culture and, in most cases, the first impression a candidate will have of the company. You'll take a balanced approach that makes a candidate feel like an individual while keeping in mind Klaviyo's business and technical objectives.
• AI fluency and adoption: Leverage AI tools and automation to streamline recruiting workflows, reduce administrative burden, and increase capacity to focus on high-impact technical hiring work.
