Audacious Ventures is on the hunt for a world-class Technical Recruiter to join our high-performing talent team. This is a challenging and fulfilling opportunity to redefine the talent landscape within the venture capital ecosystem.

We believe the most impactful thing we can do is help our founders build exceptional teams around them. After all, the best startups aren't successful because their VCs are smart - it's the founders and their brilliant teams that drive true success, which is why for us, the highest impact thing we can do is recruiting. As a Technical Recruiter at Audacious, you'll be a trusted partner to our portfolio companies, diving deep to understand their technical needs and relentlessly pursuing top-tier talent to fill those critical roles.

We are a relentless team that wakes up every morning on a mission to wow our founders. If you feel recruiting is a lifestyle, then we're the perfect place for you.

What You'll Do:

As the third member of our talent team, you'll be the secret weapon in our founders' arsenals, using your search superpowers to uncover and attract the most exceptional engineering talent - whether that's nailing down a specialized Geospatial ML PhD or convincing a brilliant high-school-dropout prodigy to join the team.
You'll be a true partner to our founders, rolling up your sleeves to deeply understand their technical requirements and then putting your creative sourcing magic to work. No challenge is too complex, no role is too niche - you'll stop at nothing to fill those critical openings with top-tier talent.
Across the full recruitment lifecycle, from outreach to interviews to offer negotiations, you'll ensure a seamless and candidate-centric experience that enables our founders to win the best talent over.
You'll stay on the cutting edge, continuously experimenting with new tools and strategies to elevate our hiring efforts.
Of course, you won't be going at it alone. You'll collaborate closely with our tenacious talent team to develop and execute on initiatives that cement Audacious' reputation as the premier destination for engineering talent.
Throughout it all, you'll embody the highest ethical and moral standards, earning the trust and respect of both our founders and the candidates you engage with.

What We're Looking For:

+/- 3-4 years of proven experience as a Technical Recruiter, ideally from a fast-paced, high-growth environment like a startup or technical recruiting agency.
Obsessive focus on search and a demonstrated track record of success in filling complex technical roles.
Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build authentic relationships and effectively manage stakeholders.
A proactive, entrepreneurial mindset - you thrive on ambiguity and aren't afraid to experiment to find new solutions.
Keen eye for detail and a relentless drive to deliver a world-class recruiting experience.
Passion for the startup ecosystem and a desire to make a tangible impact on the success of our portfolio companies.
