Talent Acquisition Recruiter II (Corporate Technical Recruiting)

There is something about SSR that just feels different from other firms. Maybe it’s our passion for solving complex technical problems. Maybe it’s that everyone at SSR is truly excited about their work and committed to one another. Or maybe it’s the fact that we’re 100% employee-owned — and we run projects like we own them, because we do.

We’re engineers, but we’re also refreshingly human. We listen first, solve with creativity, and collaborate like true partners. That ownership mindset drives everything we do: we hire the best, develop the best, and deliver the best for our clients.
