About the RoleTo support Imagen's ambitious growth goals and technical roadmap, the Talent Acquisition team is seeking a Senior Technical Recruiter to partner directly with our CTO, SVP of Engineering, and Product leadership to build the foundation of our technical organization. The Senior Technical Recruiter will own the full candidate life cycle, from sourcing to close across all our most critical technical verticals, including AI/ML, Software Engineering, and Product Management. The Senior Technical Recruiter will be Imagen's technical talent expert, building robust proactive talent pipelines, providing insights on market dynamics and compensation, and offering guidance on assessment strategies.
Responsibilities: - Own Imagen's Technical Talent Portfolio: Drive the end-to-end recruitment lifecycle for high-impact technical roles ranging from Senior Software Engineers to ML Researchers to Engineering and Product Leadership.
- Partner with Engineering Leaders: Act as a trusted advisor to CTO, SVP of Engineering and Head of Product. Don't just take orders; leverage market intelligence, tech talent trends, and data-driven insights to shape role requirements and search strategies.
- Execute Technical Sourcing: Go beyond LinkedIn. Utilize creative sourcing strategies (GitHub, Stack Overflow, Hugging Face, X-ray search) to identify and engage passive top-tier engineering talent.
- Data-Driven Optimization: Treat your funnel like a product. Use data to track pass-through rates, identify bottlenecks in the technical interview process, and reduce time-to-hire without sacrificing quality.
- Champion Imagen's Technical Brand: Represent Imagen in the tech community, ensuring candidates understand our unique tech stack and the complexity of the problems we are solving in healthcare AI.

- 3+ years of Technical Recruiting experience: A proven track record of hiring Software Engineers (Frontend, Backend, Full Stack), Data Scientists, or ML Engineers in a competitive market.
- Tech Fluency: Can speak the language. Knows the difference between Java and JavaScript, understands what a "modern stack" looks like, and can credibly screen candidates for technical aptitude before they speak to a hiring manager.
- Sourcing Sophistication: Doesn't rely solely on inbound applicants, enjoys the thrill of finding the "purple squirrel" candidate.
- Stakeholder Management: You have experience partnering with senior engineering leaders and are comfortable pushing back to ensure the bar remains high.
- Process Rigor: You are highly organized and can manage a high volume of candidates and data integrity within the ATS (e.g., Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever).
