Technical Sourcer

Fonzi • New York, NY

11d • Remote

About The Position

We're a Series A startup backed by Lightspeed revolutionizing hiring through AI. Founded by repeat entrepreneurs (Kumospace), we launched our AI-powered recruiting marketplace in June 2025 and have just under 100 employer partners (with over 75% AI-native companies). We run Match Days every week where pre-screened elite engineers receive competing offers from innovative companies, pre-seed to Series D, across NYC and SF.
Our mission is to build the infrastructure where AI learns what engineers actually do and what they want and matches them to opportunities automatically. We're building the future where intelligent systems handle the entire recruiting workflow so that the humans in the loop can focus on making meaningful connections between elite engineers and the companies shaping what comes next.
We're looking for a creative, community-embedded Technical Sourcer to join our team on a contract basis. This is not a high-volume, boolean-string role. Instead, we’re looking for someone obsessed with conversion, who thinks unconventionally about how to reach the right engineers, and is genuinely embedded in the communities where venture-backed technical talent lives.

• Genuinely embedded in engineering and startup communities online and in person, not just on LinkedIn

• Strong written and verbal communication skills with a comfort working independently across multiple priorities
• Bachelor's degree preferred; equivalent experience will be considered

Responsibilities

• Building presence in the engineering, AI, and startup communities where top engineers spend their time, such as X, Discord, Reddit, and events

• Crafting personalized outreach and managing engagement through Gem
• Collaborating closely with the recruiting team to understand ideal candidate profiles
• Maintaining an organized ATS of candidates in pipeline
