We’re a small, high-impact team that values curiosity, creativity and collaboration as we build world-class AI-enabled platforms.

We are looking for an experienced Senior Tech Recruiter (Talent Partner) to join our People team and own technical hiring across engineering and product functions as we scale.

In this role, you will

As a Senior Tech Recruiter (Talent Partner), you will:

• Design and execute proactive sourcing strategies to build diverse, high-quality pipelines — using market mapping, outreach, and talent communities.

• Manage candidate experience from initial contact through onboarding, ensuring timely communication, clear expectations and strong employer brand representation.

• Coach hiring managers and interview panels on role-specific evaluation, inclusive interviewing techniques and structured decision-making.

• Use metrics and hiring forecasts to drive continuous improvement in time-to-hire, pipeline quality and conversion at each stage of the funnel.

• Partner with People Operations on offers, compensation benchmarking and smooth candidate transitions into the business.

• Represent Monolith AI at external events, universities and industry communities to raise awareness and attract talent.

• Is skilled at proactive sourcing and pipeline building across channels (LinkedIn, GitHub, meetups, referrals and community networks).

• Communicates clearly and empathetically with candidates and stakeholders across all levels, including executives.

• Is outcomes-oriented, organised and comfortable managing multiple concurrent hiring priorities in a fast-moving environment.

• Values inclusivity and practices unbiased hiring to attract a diverse talent pool.

What success looks like in this role

You will be recognised for:
