Protege is building a platform to solve AI's critical data problem — enabling secure, efficient, and privacy-centric exchange of AI training data. The company is backed by world-class investors and already powers partnerships with leading AI teams. This is a high-growth, lean, fast-moving organization obsessed with velocity and impact.
As Senior Technical Recruiter, you will own end-to-end recruiting for critical technical roles, partnering closely with hiring managers and leadership to identify, attract, and close exceptional talent. You'll manage multiple technical searches simultaneously, from intake through offer negotiation and close.
Key responsibilities include: developing and executing creative, data-driven sourcing strategies; building deep understanding of technical roles and technologies to assess candidates effectively; sourcing directly across multiple channels and proactively building talent pipelines for hard-to-fill positions; crafting personalized candidate outreach reflecting Protege's mission and technical opportunity; acting as trusted advisor to hiring managers with market intelligence and recommendations; driving high-touch candidate experience with clear communication and thoughtful closing; partnering with interviewers to ensure rigorous and consistent evaluation; identifying bottlenecks and adjusting strategy to keep searches moving; maintaining accurate candidate data and pipeline visibility in ATS; and identifying opportunities to improve recruiting processes and tools as the company scales.
You'll bring 7+ years of recruiting experience with significant technical talent recruiting background, proven track record in startup or high-growth tech environments, and experience recruiting across engineering, infrastructure, AI/ML, data, security, or other highly technical functions. You have strong technical sourcing skills, ability to quickly understand complex technical roles, strong recruiter instincts and judgment, comfort owning multiple searches independently, exceptional organizational and communication skills, and high integrity. Bonus experience includes recruiting for AI/ML, data, infrastructure, or security teams in Series A–C startups.
