We're seeking a Lead Technical Recruiter in India to drive our GTM hiring efforts, with a critical focus on building our technical customer-facing teams (including Support, Technical Account Managers, and Solutions Architects) within the exciting data collaboration space. You will also manage hiring for some Marketing and G&A positions.

You'll partner closely with regional hiring managers to build high-performing teams in a fast-scaling environment. As the first GTM recruiter in India, you’ll have the autonomy to shape hiring strategies in the region while being embedded in a world-class global talent team.

What You'll Do:

• Own full-cycle recruitment with a strong emphasis on technical GTM roles such as Solutions Architects, Technical Account Managers, and Support Engineers, as well as generalist roles in India.

• Build strong, consultative relationships with regional hiring managers, serving as a trusted advisor on talent, particularly for technical hires.

• Design and execute scalable sourcing strategies, with specific focus on identifying and engaging candidates with experience in technical customer-facing roles within the data SaaS industry.

• Deliver a consistent, high-quality candidate experience throughout every stage.

• Provide market insights, talent mapping (especially within the technical data SaaS landscape), and real-time data to guide hiring decisions.

• Represent GTM hiring in India as a regional lead within the broader global talent team.

• Deliver quarterly hiring insights and updates to key business stakeholders.

• Help mentor future recruiters as the team grows.

What We’re Looking For:

• 6–10 years of experience in technical and GTM recruiting, ideally within the SaaS industry, with a significant portion focused on data-related or highly technical domains.

• A strong and demonstrable grasp of customer-facing technical roles (e.g., SRE, Solutions Engineering, Support) and a proven track record of successfully hiring for these positions.

• Bonus: Experience recruiting for Marketing or G&A roles.

• Proven success in outbound sourcing and engaging passive talent, particularly within technical communities and relevant industry networks.

• Comfortable working autonomously and managing high volume with urgency.

• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to confidently discuss technical profiles with hiring managers.

• Ability to synthesize data and communicate hiring trends to influence decisions, including trends specific to technical talent acquisition.

Traits That Define You:

• Problem-solver: You look for solutions, not roadblocks.

• High agency: You take ownership and move fast, without waiting to be told.

• Intrinsic motivation: You bring 120% and take pride in high performance.

• Growth mindset: You’re always learning, iterating, and getting better.

• Others before self: You prioritize team, candidate, and company success over ego.
