About HighlightTA

HighlightTA is dedicated to delivering fast, flexible, and cost-effective talent solutions that help companies build exceptional teams. Our team of skilled professionals works closely with clients to understand their unique hiring needs and provide tailored solutions. As former in-house talent leaders, we saw that many businesses struggle with hiring demands, layoffs, and inconsistent growth. So we started HighlightTA with a simple goal: to help companies grow sustainably and access top talent experts easily.

Join us to be part of a dynamic and innovative company that values collaboration, growth, and creativity.

Who We're Looking For

We are seeking an experienced Senior Technical Recruiter with a strong background in scaling companies and building engineering and product teams.

You are highly motivated, productive, and data-driven, thriving in fast-paced environments where multiple high-priority roles need to be filled quickly. While your core focus is technical hiring, you bring versatility and adaptability to take on non-technical roles as business needs evolve.

What You’ll Bring

  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruitment experience for a SaaS based business

  • 2+ years specializing in technical roles (e.g., Software Engineers, Data Scientists, DevOps, Product Managers)

  • Flexibility to recruit across non-technical functions (e.g., operations, sales, leadership)

  • You are comfortable using AI tools as part of your regular workflow. You can name the tools you rely on, describe real use cases, and show genuine enthusiasm for what they make possible.

  • Data-driven mindset, using metrics and insights to refine recruitment strategies

  • Highly motivated and able to handle multiple high-priority searches in fast-moving environments

  • Strong partnerships with Engineering, Product, and Technical Leadership

  • Dedication to diversity, inclusion, and delivering a seamless candidate experience

What You’ll Do

  • Partner with scaling companies to expand their technical and product teams

  • Build strong hiring manager partnerships, acting as an embedded talent partner who understands team goals and drives searches forward together

  • Provide candidates with an excellent, transparent, and engaging hiring experience

  • Support startups with tailored and flexible recruiting approaches

  • Manage recruitment across technical and non-technical roles as needed

  • Operate within Slack-based workflows across internal teams and client workspaces

  • Source passive candidates through advanced techniques and technical networks

  • Facilitate technical assessments and structured interview processes

  • Deliver insights on hiring trends, compensation, and market dynamics

  • Balance multiple urgent searches simultaneously with high productivity

  • Outplacement sessions with laid off employees

What We Offer

  • Career progression: Opportunities for advancement within HighlightTA

  • Guidance & training: Programs to support your professional growth

  • Flexible work: Arrangements that fit your lifestyle

  • Competitive compensation: Attractive packages that reward performance

  • 100% remote WFH: Work from anywhere with a fully remote setup
