The Role
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
What We're Looking For
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
- Consistent flow of high-quality technical candidates
- Strong reply rates driven by thoughtful outreach
- Hiring managers trust your judgment and taste
- Nice to Have
- Interest in healthcare, pharmacy, or health technology
- Uses AI tools in your workflow and is always looking for ways to move faster with them
