Pearl
Role Description A boutique executive search firm specializing in technical hiring for venture-backed startups is looking for a Technical Sourcer to own deep candidate research and deliver high-signal pipelines for Engineering, Product, and Design roles exclusively within the US market. - The firm operates at low volume and high depth — running a small number of concurrent searches with the precision and rigor of executive search, not high-volume staffing. - Clients are venture-backed companies from Seed through Series D across AI/ML, SaaS, and Fintech. - This is a dedicated sourcing role with no full-cycle recruiting responsibilities. - Day-to-day work involves: - Building structured talent maps - Conducting deep-dive company and candidate research - Identifying passive candidates through advanced Boolean search - Maintaining organized pipeline data - Success means consistently surfacing candidates that align tightly with role criteria — right domain, right level, right trajectory — with minimal misses per submission. Qualifications - 5+ years of sourcing experience with a track record of low-volume, high-depth searches. - Demonstrated experience sourcing US-based candidates for US-based companies. - Advanced proficiency with LinkedIn Recruiter including Boolean construction, filter logic, and passive candidate identification. - Experience building talent maps or conducting structured market intelligence research. - Verifiable sourcing outcomes on CV: closure rates, search turnaround, promotion to #1 sourcer, or recognition for troubleshooting underperforming searches. - Willingness to operate exclusively in a sourcing capacity. - B2+ English (CEFR) for internal written communication and pipeline documentation. Requirements - Background at a boutique executive search or dedicated research firm. - Prior experience as a software engineer, developer, or technical practitioner before transitioning into sourcing. - Familiarity with GitHub, Google Scholar, or patent databases for locating technical candidates outside of LinkedIn. - Experience using Crunchbase, PitchBook, or AngelList/Wellfound for startup research and hiring signal identification. - Exposure to venture-backed startup ecosystems — specifically Seed through Series D hiring within SaaS, Fintech, or AI/ML. Benefits - Competitive Salary: Based on experience and skills. - Remote Work: Fully remote—work from anywhere. - Team Incentives: Recognition for maintaining 100% CRM hygiene and on-time reporting. - Generous PTO: In accordance with company policy. - Health Coverage for PH-based talents: HMO coverage after 3 months for full-time employees. - Direct Mentorship: Guidance from international industry experts. - Learning & Development: Ongoing access to resources for professional growth. - Global Networking: Connect with professionals worldwide. Company Description Pearl works with the top 1% of candidates from around the world and connects them with the best startups in the US and EU. Our clients have raised over $5B in aggregate and are backed by companies like OpenAI, a16z, and Founders Fund.
