Targeted Recruiting & Onboarding Specialist (Contractor)
About the role
Role Overview
We're looking for a Targeted Recruiting Specialist to own the contributor acquisition funnel — from sourcing the right technical profiles to getting them through onboarding and onto their first completed task. This is an operational role at its core: you'll build and run the systems, channels, and processes that let us recruit at scale, reliably and quickly.
The right person is execution-oriented, thinks in funnels, and is comfortable with ambiguity. You won't just manage job postings — you'll own the full pipeline infrastructure, diagnose conversion problems, manage external sourcing partners, and make sure the right candidates get to the right projects with minimal friction.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You'll work closely with the broader Growth team and directly with recruiters to set priorities and drive execution.
This role entails:
Funnel Ownership
- Own all active and evergreen job funnels end-to-end — from posting to first completed task
- Track conversion at every funnel stage, identify drop-off points, and implement fixes
- Support AI interview gates and fasttracks — ensure they're running smoothly and converting qualified candidates
- Build and own the intake-to-execution process for new sourcing requests — so that when a new project spins up, the recruiting pipeline is ready
Sourcing & Partnerships
- Manage relationships with BPOs and external sourcing partners — evaluate quality, negotiate terms, and hold them accountable to targets
- Write and manage evergreen job postings across LinkedIn and other relevant channels
- Explore and test non-conventional sourcing channels — communities, academic partnerships, niche forums — to find what converts best for technical profiles
