Overlap with PST working hours

Full Time

Bluesky's vision is to make social more like the web itself. We're building a social media app, but beyond that, we've created a protocol that supports a broad ecosystem of applications and clients. Imagine a network of applications — from microblogging to photos to video to long-form writing — all interconnected and accessible with a shared identity.
If you can talk shop with engineers, read code snippets, and spot technical depth behind the resume, this role is for you. As Bluesky's Technical Recruiter, you'll be instrumental in building our engineering team.

Responsibilities

Source, screen, and recruit exceptional engineering talent across ML, front end, full stack, infrastructure, and protocol development
Develop and execute creative, role-specific sourcing strategies to drive consistent outbound engagement with top candidates
Lead and drive the interview process design and follow-up with hiring managers and leadership to understand technical requirements and team dynamics
Manage the full recruiting lifecycle from initial outreach through offer negotiation and onboarding
Build and maintain a robust pipeline of qualified candidates for current and future technical openings
Continuously refine our interview process and candidate experience based on data and feedback
Track recruiting metrics and provide insights on pipeline health, market trends, and hiring effectiveness
Support our high agency, low ego culture by identifying candidates who thrive in fast-paced, mission-driven environments

Requirements

Minimum of 4 years of experience in technical recruiting, preferably at high-growth technology companies or startups
Deep understanding of engineering roles and proven ability to assess technical talent effectively
Track record of successfully recruiting senior engineers, with experience in protocol, infrastructure, or ML engineering preferred
Strong technical curiosity and ability to engage authentically with engineering candidates
Excellent communication skills and ability to represent company culture and mission compellingly
Data-driven approach to recruiting with experience using metrics to optimize processes
Enthusiasm about open source technologies, decentralized systems, and the future of social media

We're especially excited if you have:

Network within the open source and protocol development communities
Experience recruiting for blockchain, distributed systems, or social media technologies
Background working with remote-first engineering teams

We're a fully remote team, but an overlap of working hours with PST is required. We offer health, dental, and vision insurance.
If you're a high agency, low ego recruiter who wants to work with an excellent team and help build the future of social, we encourage you to apply.
