Senior Technical Recruiter

We are looking for a highly experienced and entrepreneurial Senior Recruiter to be a foundational member of our team, sourcing and hiring elite talent in both the US and Latin America.

This is an opportunity to build our talent acquisition function from the ground up. You will own the entire recruiting lifecycle, from sourcing and screening to managing the candidate pipeline and partnering directly with our leadership team. We need a savvy, empathetic professional who excels at selling a compelling vision and can navigate conversations with top-tier talent.

If you are an ambitious recruiter who thrives on ownership and is excited by the prospect of building something from scratch in a fast-paced, innovative and high-performing environment, we want to talk to you.
