About this role
About the role
As Lead Technical Recruiter, Product & Engineering (US), you will own end-to-end hiring for A1’s US-based engineering and product roles.
This is a hands-on role. You will personally drive critical hires while helping define how technical recruiting is done at A1. Success is measured by quality of hire, speed, and signal, not volume.
You will work closely with founders, engineering leads, and product leadership to ensure we attract and close world-class candidates who thrive in small, high-bar teams.
What you will be doing
Own the full recruitment lifecycle for US-based product and engineering roles, from role intake through offer and onboarding support.
Source and engage senior technical candidates through relationship-driven channels (direct outreach, referrals, engineering communities), not job boards alone.
Partner closely with engineering and product leaders to clarify requirements, calibrate bar, and keep hiring decisions moving.
Screen candidates for technical depth, judgment, ownership, and execution mindset.
Coordinate interviews and feedback loops with speed, structure, and clarity.
Maintain accurate hiring data in the ATS and provide clear pipeline updates to stakeholders.
Help shape and raise the bar for A1’s technical hiring approach as the team scales.
What you will need
Strong experience in full-cycle technical recruiting, with solid exposure to the US hiring market.
Proven ability to run multiple technical searches in parallel without sacrificing quality.
Experience hiring software engineers, ML engineers, product managers, or other technical roles.
Strong intuition for technical profiles and how to assess real engineering and product talent.
Clear, confident communication in English (written and verbal).
Comfort working with ATS systems and tracking hiring metrics.
High ownership, urgency, and follow-through.
(Industry background is flexible. Strong technical hiring experience matters more than domain.)
