Principal Technical Sourcer

Technical Sourcer

We’re building a high-caliber technical team in a competitive market. This role owns the top of the funnel—finding, engaging, and building relationships with exceptional engineers before they’re actively looking.

This is not a resume-pushing role. It’s about taste, curiosity, and persistence.

What you’ll do

• Own outbound sourcing for technical roles (primarily software engineers)

• Identify high-signal candidates via LinkedIn, GitHub, referrals, and communities

• Write thoughtful, personalized outreach that actually gets replies

• Partner closely with recruiters and hiring managers to define “great”

• Experiment with sourcing strategies, messaging, and channels

• Track and improve funnel metrics (reply rate, pass-through, time to first convo)

• Build long-term candidate relationships, even when timing isn’t right

You might be a good fit if

• You have 1–4+ years of technical sourcing experience (startup experience a plus)

• You enjoy the puzzle of finding people others can’t

• You care about quality over volume and hate spammy outreach

• You’re comfortable with ambiguity and like building from scratch

• You operate with urgency and take ownership

• Bias to action

What success looks like

• Consistent flow of high-quality technical candidates

• Strong reply rates driven by thoughtful outreach

• Hiring managers trust your judgment and taste

Why join

• Real ownership and visibility

• Opportunity to help define the sourcing playbook

• Close partnership with recruiters and founders

• High impact on a team scaling quickly

• Exposure to the strongest Tech Startup Eco-System
