Technical recruiter (remote, contract)
About The Position
A well-funded, high-growth AI-powered enterprise SaaS platform client of our's is looking for a contract Technical Recruiter to support their Engineering, Product, and Design organization. The company is a recognized leader in the cross-channel customer engagement space, powers communications for global household-name brands, and is in active engineering growth mode across the US and internationally. This is not a generalist role. You will own 6–8 engineering requisitions across roughly three skillsets, structured deliberately so you build deep talent pipelines rather than sprint on one-off searches. You will work directly with a Head of Talent who values calibration, submission quality, and a recruiter who genuinely understands the code they are hiring for.
Requirements
- Recent in-seat technical recruiting experience at a 200–1000 person SaaS company — a mix of growth stages preferred
- East Coast availability, or genuine flexibility to operate on EC core hours to support team overlap with an international engineering hub
- The ability to read a job description and differentiate between a Principal Backend Engineer and a Staff+ Engineer without asking the HM to explain it
- Demonstrable sourcing and close experience with backend engineers — JVM stack familiarity (Scala / Java) strongly preferred
- Scrappy, high-autonomy operating style — comfortable in ambiguity without a finished playbook
Nice To Haves
- AI/ML recruiting experience is a strong differentiator, particularly multi-agent or LLM-adjacent system teams
- MarTech, developer tooling, or data infrastructure sector background is helpful but not required
Responsibilities
- Full-cycle technical recruiting for backend engineering roles (Scala-primary stack; Java, Python, and Node.js backgrounds also in scope)
- AI/ML engineering hiring, including teams building multi-agentic and LLM-adjacent systems
- US-based requisitions plus roles for a growing international engineering office in Lisbon, Portugal
- Hiring Manager calibration and partnership — pass-through metric ownership, feedback loops, and offer management
- Pipeline-building across multiple reqs per skillset — the goal is reusable, deep talent pools, not one-off fills
