  • Use advanced sourcing techniques—Boolean, talent platforms, communities, research databases
  • Ensure a seamless, high-quality candidate experience aligned with SymphonyAI’s employer brand
Collaboration & Enablement
  • Work closely with TA Partners, HRBPs, Finance, and C&B on leveling, offers, and approvals
  • Build structured research documentation, dashboards, and reporting frameworks leaders actually use
  • Support confidential and executive hiring initiatives with discretion and rigor
  • Mentor recruiters and researchers by raising the bar on search quality, thinking, and execution
What You’ll Bring

  • Strong experience in Talent Acquisition, Talent Research, Sourcing, or Market Intelligence—ideally in SaaS, tech, consulting, or high-growth environments
  • Proven ability to partner with senior stakeholders and influence complex hiring decisions
  • Deep expertise in passive talent research, market mapping, and competitive intelligence
  • Strong sourcing capability across global markets and senior / niche roles
  • Data-driven mindset with comfort using ATS, CRM tools, dashboards, and hiring analytics

  • Ability to thrive in fast-paced, global, and evolving environments without needing hand-holding
Why Join SymphonyAI
  • Play a strategic role in shaping world-class teams powering enterprise AI
  • Influence hiring decisions through insight and intelligence, not just execution
