About the Role
Aurelius Systems is seeking a Technical Recruiter to manage full-cycle recruiting for critical engineering roles and help build the company's recruiting infrastructure during a period of rapid growth. This hybrid role involves owning technical searches from screening to closing, partnering with the Head of Talent to scale hiring processes, and reporting directly to leadership.
Responsibilities
- Manage full-cycle recruiting for priority technical searches, including screens, process management, references, and offer coordination.
- Qualify and assess candidates against role requirements in collaboration with hiring managers.
- Oversee onsite operations, including scheduling, travel logistics, candidate communication, and tracker maintenance.
- Maintain Ashby as the single source of truth for recruiting data, ensuring clean stages, scorecards, and follow-ups.
- Ensure process discipline with same-day debriefs and prevent candidate funnel stagnation.
- Coordinate the handoff for new hire onboarding.
- Drive improvements in recruiting workflows, including templates, reminders, operating cadences, and documentation.
- Provide pipeline reporting through weekly syncs and quarterly tracking, analyzing sourced vs. inbound candidates, stage conversions, and bottlenecks.
Requirements
- 2 to 5 years of recruiting experience, with a focus on technical searches.
- Experience recruiting deeply technical profiles (hardware, embedded, robotics, controls, optics, ML, or adjacent engineering).
- Strong candidate assessment judgment.
- Proficiency with Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) such as Ashby or Greenhouse, with a commitment to maintaining system hygiene.
- Demonstrated urgency in moving candidates and decisions forward.
- Comfort with ambiguity, changing priorities, and building processes concurrently with execution.
- High ownership and a low drop rate, with meticulous attention to detail.
- Experience in technical recruiting at defense tech, robotics, hardware, or deeptech startups.
- Agency recruiting experience where technical searches were managed end-to-end.
- In-house recruiting experience at Series A to Series C companies managing multiple requisitions without a coordinator.
