  • Negotiate offers and facilitate smooth onboarding of selected candidates.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

  • Proven experience as a Technical Recruiter (freelance, agency, or in-house).
  • Strong understanding of technical skills, stacks, and job functions (e.g., Python, Java, React, AWS, DevOps, etc.).
  • Excellent sourcing skills on LinkedIn, GitHub, Naukri, Stack Overflow, and other platforms.
  • Ability to assess candidate resumes and technical fit quickly.
  • Excellent communication, coordination, and negotiation skills.
  • Self-motivated with the ability to work independently and manage multiple open roles.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience recruiting for software startups or product-based companies.
  • Familiarity with ATS tools (e.g., Zoho Recruit, Lever, Greenhouse).
  • Basic understanding of technical screening tools (e.g., HackerRank, Codility).

Compensation:

  • Commission-based / Per-closure model, depending on role level and complexity.
  • Attractive incentives for high-performing recruiters.
