Full Job Description
As we continue to scale, we9re looking for a highly organized, relationship-driven Senior Talent Acquisition Partner who can run high-volume, fast-cycle recruiting and longer-cycle, specialized technical searches side by side, and knows how to shift gears between the two.

What You9ll Work On

  • Own full-cycle recruiting across a diverse portfolio, from high-volume production and skilled trades roles to specialized software, mechanical, and manufacturing engineering searches, adjusting sourcing strategy and cadence to fit each.


  • Serve as a trusted advisor and subject matter expert to hiring managers - coaching on role definition, interview process design, feedback calibration, and closing strategy, not just executing against a req.


  • Define scope and sourcing approach for hard-to-fill and specialized roles, including market mapping of the competitive talent landscape.


  • Prioritize and manage a portfolio of concurrent requisitions based on business urgency, hiring manager needs, and shifting priorities.


  • Build and maintain sourcing engines for diverse hiring verticals (e.g. staffing agency partnerships, trade schools, local outreach, Boolean/X-ray search, GitHub, technical communities, etc.)


  • Drive structured interview loops from initial outreach through offer negotiation and close, including panel calibration and feedback synthesis.


  • Maintain accurate, real-time requisition and candidate data in the ATS, and proactively use pipeline conversion, source effectiveness, and time-to-fill data to guide hiring manager conversations rather than just report after the fact.


What We9re Looking For

  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience with demonstrated success across both ends of the spectrum, high-volume production/skilled trades hiring and specialized technical or engineering searches, in a hardware, aerospace, defense, or manufacturing environment.


  • Proven ability to manage a high-volume requisition load independently.


  • Demonstrated success sourcing and closing candidates across both competitive technical talent markets and high-volume production/trades pipelines, including creative approaches beyond standard job boards.


  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, resource-lean startup environment where you9ll wear multiple hats.


Bonus Points

  • Experience recruiting in composite manufacturing or a related technical manufacturing field


  • Experience recruiting in a highly regulated or defense/aerospace environment


  • Experience scaling an organization through periods of rapid growth


$125,000 - $145,000 a year

Final compensation is based on your experience, skills, and what you bring to the table.

  • Full Benefits Package: Medical, dental, and vision coverage, short- and long-term disability insurance, company-paid life insurance


  • Equity Option Grants


  • 401k plan


  • Paid Time Off: Unlimited PTO + 9 Federal Holidays
