Junior Technical Sourcer

Ivo, San Francisco, CA, United States


Overview We are looking for a highly organized, proactive, and people-focused Junior Technical Sourcer to help us scale our Engineering team by building strong outbound talent pipelines.

This role is ideal for someone early in their career who wants to break into recruiting by becoming exceptional at sourcing and outbound talent discovery.

If you’re energized by research, outreach, and relationship-building and are excited to grow into a long‑term recruiting role this position offers hands‑on experience, clear ownership, and a strong growth path.

What You’ll Be Doing

Talent Sourcing (~80%) to proactively source exceptional candidates for Technical roles (Engineering, Product, Design)

Build and maintain strong outbound pipelines using LinkedIn, referrals, and sourcing tools

Research target companies and candidate profiles to identify high‑quality talent

Write and send personalized outreach messages; iterate on messaging based on response rates

Track sourcing activity, response rates, and pipeline metrics

Recruiting Support (~20%)

Partner with recruiters and hiring managers to understand role requirements and ideal candidate profiles

Conduct resume reviews and support early screening as needed

Who This Role Is For

This role is explicitly sourcing-heavy and a great fit if you:

Want to build a career in recruiting or talent acquisition

Enjoy research, outreach, and problem-solving more than scheduling or coordination

Are comfortable sending cold outreach and following up

Ivo might be a good fit for you if you:

2+ yrs of experience in Technical Sourcing

Have experience in customer-facing, sales, retail, hospitality, or support roles and enjoy talking to people and building relationships

Have a "do what it takes" attitude. You're willing to dive into problems and solve them yourself — you won't have anyone to delegate to

Would describe yourself as being relentlessly resourceful

You have a strong internal sense of urgency. You have a bias towards doing things *today*, rather than tomorrow

Experience working in a startup environment is preferred but not required

You are excited about the adventure of building a company!
