Harper is hiring a Technical Recruiter to own full-cycle recruiting for engineering and other technical roles. You will develop hiring strategies, source candidates, run the recruiting process, partner with hiring managers, and close offers.
Key responsibilities include:
- Own end-to-end recruiting for engineering and technical positions
- Partner with technical leaders to understand roles, hiring profiles, and what makes exceptional candidates
- Build sourcing strategies for difficult-to-fill technical positions
- Proactively identify and engage passive candidates through LinkedIn, GitHub, referrals, networks, events, and creative channels
- Conduct recruiter screens and assess candidates for motivation, experience, communication, and alignment
- Build and maintain strong technical talent pipelines
- Manage candidates throughout the recruiting process with high engagement
- Partner with hiring managers to make fast, thoughtful hiring decisions
- Drive offer strategy and help close competitive candidates
- Maintain accurate pipeline information and use data to identify bottlenecks
- Develop deep understanding of Harper's product, technology, team, and story to credibly represent the company
- Help improve interview processes and hiring standards as the company scales
The role emphasizes quality over volume—success is not measured by sending large numbers of LinkedIn messages, but by understanding what makes exceptional technical candidates, finding them creatively, and building relationships to bring them to Harper.
Requirements:
- 3–7+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally at a high-growth startup
- Demonstrated success recruiting software engineers and other highly sought-after technical talent
- Excellent sourcing skills and ability to find candidates beyond obvious inbound channels
- Ability to understand technical roles well enough to credibly engage and evaluate candidates
- Strong candidate management and closing skills
- High urgency without sacrificing candidate experience or hiring quality
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- Comfortable challenging hiring managers and bringing a point of view on talent
- Data-driven and disciplined about pipeline management
- Comfortable working in an environment with ambitious hiring goals and evolving processes
