About the Role
We are looking for a highly experienced Senior US IT Recruiter / Lead Recruiter who can independently manage complex technology requirements, deliver high-quality candidates, and contribute to the overall performance.
This is a hands-on recruitment role for someone who has spent significant time recruiting for the US IT market and can handle difficult requirements without depending heavily on management for sourcing strategy, candidate evaluation, or day-to-day execution.
The right candidate should combine strong individual recruiting capability with the maturity to guide junior recruiters, troubleshoot difficult searches, and help improve sourcing and screening standards across the team.
Key Responsibilities
- Own multiple US IT requirements independently from requirement analysis through candidate submission and interview coordination.
- Recruit across Data Engineering, Data Analytics, AI/ML, Cloud, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Java/.NET, DevOps, Product and other enterprise technology roles.
- Develop sourcing strategies for niche and difficult requirements using LinkedIn, Dice, Monster, internal databases, referrals, and other sourcing channels.
- Build effective Boolean searches and identify relevant candidates beyond keyword-based resume matching.
- Conduct detailed candidate screening covering technical fit, project relevance, communication, location, work authorization, compensation/rate, availability, and career history.
- Maintain strong submission quality and minimize internal/client rejection caused by poor screening or requirement mismatch.
- Work effectively across W2, C2C, 1099 and Full-Time hiring models.
- Manage candidate pipelines proactively and drive candidates through submissions, interviews, offers, and closures.
- Understand client priorities and adjust sourcing strategy based on feedback, interview outcomes, and market availability.
- Support junior recruiters with sourcing strategies, Boolean strings, candidate screening, and difficult requirements when required.
- Take ownership of assigned requirements and operate with minimal day-to-day supervision.
- Maintain accurate recruitment activity and candidate status in the ATS.
- Contribute to improving team sourcing, screening, submission quality, and overall recruitment execution.
What We Are Looking For
- 5-7+ years of hands-on US IT recruitment experience.
- Strong recent experience recruiting for technology and consulting positions in the US market.
- Proven ability to handle niche, senior and technically complex requirements.
- Strong understanding of modern technology skill sets, particularly Data/AI, Cloud, enterprise applications, and software engineering.
- Excellent Boolean search, LinkedIn sourcing, database sourcing, and candidate identification skills.
- Strong technical screening and resume evaluation capability.
- Good understanding of US work authorizations, employment types, rate structures, and recruiting compliance.
- Demonstrated experience generating interviews and closures—not simply high submission volume.
- Strong communication, candidate management, negotiation, and follow-up skills.
- Ability to prioritize multiple active requirements and deliver consistently.
- Experience mentoring or supporting junior recruiters is strongly preferred.
- Comfortable working in a high-accountability, performance-driven recruiting environment.
