Technical Sourcer

Decagon is growing quickly and we’re looking for a Technical Sourcer to help us find and engage exceptional technical talent.

You’ll work closely with our Recruiters and Engineering leaders to identify the people we want at Decagon and figure out how to get them excited about what we’re building. You’ll own top-of-funnel across some of our highest-priority technical searches, from mapping talent markets and identifying great candidates to crafting outreach and building relationships.

We care more about raw ability, drive, and potential than whether you’ve followed a traditional recruiting career path. This could be a great fit for an agency recruiter looking to move in-house, a Recruiting Coordinator or Sourcer ready to take on more ownership, or someone from a high-velocity sales environment who wants to build a career in Talent.

In this role, you will

Research companies, teams, and talent markets to identify candidates others might miss

Write thoughtful, personalized outreach that gets candidates excited about Decagon

Partner closely with Recruiters and hiring managers to understand their teams, calibrate on talent, and continuously improve searches

Build relationships with candidates and create an exceptional experience from the first interaction

Experiment with AI and new tools to make sourcing faster, smarter, and more effective

Take on increasing ownership across the recruiting process as you grow

Your background looks something like this

3+ years of professional experience, ideally in sourcing, agency recruiting, recruiting coordination, sales, or another high-velocity environment

You’re highly motivated and want to accelerate your career

You’re naturally curious and enjoy learning how companies, teams, and technologies work

You’re a strong communicator and comfortable reaching out to and building relationships with people you don’t know

You’re resourceful and willing to try different approaches when the obvious answer doesn’t work

You’re organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities at once

Even better if you have
