About the Role

Exacare ai is hiring a Technical Talent Acquisition Manager to help us build the technical teams that will power our next stage of growth.

You will be responsible for identifying, engaging, assessing, and closing exceptional technical talent in a highly competitive market. You'll work closely with hiring managers to define success profiles, build effective interview processes, develop targeted sourcing strategies, and ensure we maintain a high hiring bar as we scale. This role is ideal for a senior technical recruiter or early technical TA manager who has owned complex technical searches, knows how to operate with urgency and precision, and wants to have a direct impact on the caliber of talent joining a fast-growing startup.

What You'll Do

Sourcing & Pipeline Strategy

  • Build and execute targeted sourcing strategies for hard-to-fill technical roles using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, GitHub, niche technical communities, referrals, alumni networks, events, and creative outbound channels
  • Identify, engage, and nurture passive candidates across engineering, product, design, data, ML, and technical leadership talent pools
  • Develop tailored outreach that speaks to candidate motivations, technical interests, startup appetite, and exacare ai's mission
  • Maintain strong long-term talent pipelines for future priority roles and recurring hiring needs
  • Use sourcing and pipeline data to understand what is working, where conversion is dropping, and how to improve candidate quality and throughput

Hiring Process & Candidate Experience

  • Partner with hiring managers to continuously refine technical interview processes for speed, fairness, consistency, and signal quality
  • Help build and improve structured interview rubrics, scorecards, interviewer calibration practices, and feedback norms
  • Champion a high-touch, transparent, and thoughtful candidate experience from first outreach through offer close
  • Drive candidates through process with urgency while ensuring expectations, feedback, and next steps are clearly communicated
  • Support offer strategy and closing by understanding candidate motivations, compensation needs, competing opportunities, and decision criteria

Recruiting Operations & Talent Intelligence

  • Develop and report on recruiting KPIs, including pipeline health, pass-through rates, time-to-hire, source performance, candidate quality, offer acceptance, and hiring manager responsiveness
  • Use Ashby and other recruiting tools to maintain clean data, accurate reporting, and consistent workflow management
  • Identify bottlenecks in the hiring process and proactively recommend improvements to increase speed, quality, and alignment
  • Share talent market insights with hiring managers and leadership to inform hiring plans, role prioritization, and recruiting strategy
  • Help raise the bar for how exacare ai attracts, evaluates, and closes exceptional technical talent
