Technical Recruiter

LayerZero Labs • Vancouver, BC

16d • Onsite

About The Position

We’re building the next generation of talent at LayerZero. As our Technical Recruiter, you’ll be one of the first people candidates meet—and one of the most critical. You’ll help shape the future of our engineering teams, identify world-class talent across frontier tech domains, and design candidate journeys that are fast, rigorous, and deeply aligned to our values.
This role is based full-time in our Vancouver, BC office.

Requirements

• You’ve recruited for deeply technical roles before (backend, infra, systems, protocol, Rust)
• You know how to write compelling outbound that gets replies—and understand how to tailor messaging across profiles
• You’re comfortable assessing resumes, probing for signal, and escalating red flags early
• You care about candidate experience, but not at the expense of rigor
• You’re motivated by impact: you want to help define the DNA of an engineering org at the frontier

Nice To Haves

• You’ve hired in early-stage environments before (0→1 recruiting muscle)
• You’re fluent in Web3, or technical enough to ramp quickly
• You’ve run debriefs, driven interviewer training, or contributed to rubric design

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle recruiting for technical roles across LayerZero: sourcing, screening, coordinating, and closing
• Partner directly with hiring managers and engineers to define role profiles, build pipelines, and calibrate signal
• Craft bespoke outbound strategies tailored to high-caliber candidates (think Principal Engineers, Compiler Experts, Core Infra Builders)
• Deliver high-quality candidate experiences at pace—speed matters, but quality matters more
• Run structured, signal-rich interviews and guide interviewers through calibration and debriefs
• Become a system builder: help scale and improve how we run recruiting, not just run reqs
