Senior Technical Recruiter

Hi I’m Colin, I lead Talent at Method, and I wrote every word of this job description below.

About the role

I’m hiring a Senior Technical Recruiter to own how we find, engage, and close the engineers and product people who build Method’s technology. The people we want rarely apply (though, there is a huge opportunity to optimize this channel!) They are weighing offers from the fastest-growing companies in the world, and bringing them to Method takes an outbound-savvy recruiter who can spot exceptional talent early then curate a candidate experience that both reflects our culture and demonstrates it is no-brainer why Method is a place worth working for.

You will own individual contributor hiring across Engineering, Product, and Design, as a true partner to our engineering and product leaders. Method operates lean: at just ~70 headcount total, each hire we make has a significant impact on Method’s trajectory, so our bar for talent is very high.

This is a role for someone energized by building from scratch, navigating ambiguity, and applying both recruiting fundamentals and AI-driven workflows to deliver outsized impact.

This role is based out of our NYC office and we have a flexible (but not full-time remote) hybrid policy that typically manifests as 2-4 days/week in office on average where you'll collaborate live and go on caffeine and lunch runs covered by the company.

What you'll do

• Own full-cycle recruiting for all individual contributor roles across Engineering, Product, and Data.

• Design, launch, and run Method's a repeatable software engineering internship program end to end, from sourcing channels to interview design and selection.

• Spot gaps in the funnel, propose new tools or process changes, and make the case for them with data.

• Raise the bar on candidate experience across Talent and sharpen how Method tells its story to technical talent.

• Proactively introduce AI optimizations where it makes sense in the recruiting lifecycle

Who you are

• 5+ years in a full cycle technical recruiting role with closing/negotiating experience

• You know this level of talent intuitively. You’ve hired engineers that have significantly impacted business and technology outcomes.

• You have a pulse on the tech scene and generally know what shops have top talent.

• You care deeply about candidate experience and have experience curating an excellent and high-touch process for candidates.

• You are outbound first. The best people will not apply, and you have the sourcing habits to find them. - ideally AI native.

• You are a strong closer who has won candidates for companies whose name did not do the selling.

• You are resilient. A low accept rate or a string of no's does not slow you down.

• You are fluent with modern, AI-enabled sourcing and recruiting tools, and you keep testing new ones.

• You are a builder. When you see a problem, you come back with a solution and the reasoning behind it.

Extra Awesome

• Agency recruiting experience, especially placing engineers.

• Experience building or running a university recruiting or internship program.

• A record of strong engineering hires at an early-stage startup.
