About The Position

We're looking for a Talent Partner who brings operator-level credibility to technical recruiting. You'll be the strategic force behind search execution for PCT's clients — companies ranging from pre-seed to pre-IPO — partnering directly with founders and technical leaders to hire exceptional engineering and technical talent.
This role is perfect for someone who thrives with autonomy, has a high bar for quality of hire, and is energized by building repeatable yet flexible recruiting processes across different company stages and hiring contexts.
Note: This role is fully remote, but will require on average 4-5 hours of overlap a day within the 9-6pm PT timezone due to client, team, and candidate overlap.

Requirements

• Experience: You've spent the majority of your career in technical recruiting inside product-led or SaaS companies. You've owned senior and staff+ searches end-to-end and have the credibility to walk into a room with a CTO and immediately earn their trust
• Scope: You've hired across Engineering and at least a few adjacent technical functions — Product, Design, Data, Security, or QA. You're not a generalist, but you're not one-dimensional either
• Autonomy: You don't need someone to tell you how to prioritize your day. You're used to managing multiple searches simultaneously and making judgment calls without hand-holding
• High Bar: You've worked somewhere with a genuinely high talent bar and can articulate — concisely — what separates a strong candidate from an exceptional one
• Sourcing Chops: Boolean search, talent mapping, and high-volume outreach are native to your workflow, not tasks you outsource
• Communication: Strong written communication skills. You can synthesize a search update, write a compelling candidate message, or brief a founder — all with clarity and efficiency
• Tools: Comfortable in an ATS (Ashby experience a plus, but not required) and curious about how AI and new tooling can sharpen your workflow

Responsibilities

• End-to-End Search Execution: Lead full-cycle technical searches across Engineering and adjacent functions (Product, Design, Data, Security, QA) for PCT clients
• Stakeholder Partnership: Partner directly with founders and VP-level leaders to qualify roles, align on hiring criteria, and move searches forward with urgency
• Process Architecture: Build and coach clients through structured, high-signal interview processes — especially when working with first-time hiring managers
• Market Intelligence: Conduct deep talent mapping and competitive analysis to identify where the best candidates are and how to reach them
• Pipeline Development: Create innovative sourcing strategies that go beyond inbound and referrals to build diverse, high-quality candidate pipelines
• Candidate Assessment: Screen and evaluate senior+ technical talent with the judgment to know what separates good from great
• Data & Reporting: Track pipeline health, pass-through rates, and search progress — using data to optimize your approach and communicate clearly with clients
• Collaboration: Work closely with PCT's Technical Sourcers to align on targeting strategy and move searches efficiently
