Job Description

Job Title: Technical Recruiter

Position Description: Protingent Staffing has an exciting contract Technical Recruiterwith our client that is fully remote.

Job Description:
  • We're looking for a full-cycle Recruiter who can own the entire hiring process—from intake through signed offer—for a range of roles.
  • You'll act as a strategic sourcing and talent-advisory partner to hiring managers, building smart search strategies, running rigorous candidate assessments, and closing high-value candidates. 
  • This is a role for someone who thinks in funnels, uses data to drive decisions, and knows how to move fast without sacrificing quality or candidate experience.

Job Responsibilities:
  • Own full-cycle recruiting across multiple open reqs—intake, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offers, and close.
  • Build sourcing strategies from vague or evolving intakes: map the market, prioritize channels, and generate strong, diverse first slates.
  • Use modern sourcing tools and tactics effectively (LinkedIn Recruiter, SeekOut, Gem, referrals, talent pools) and know where to focus first for each search.
  • Balance speed, quality, and diversity throughout the pipeline.
  • Partner closely with hiring managers—running structured intakes, resetting expectations, and advising on tradeoffs using pipeline data.
  • Screen and assess candidates rigorously, probing to decide who advances.
  • Manage stakeholders directly: push back when needed, handle escalations, and surface issues early.
  • Design and structure offers, navigate negotiations, counteroffers, comp constraints, and relocation, and consistently close high-value candidates.
  • Collaborate with sourcers, recruiters, and recruiting coordinators—dividing responsibilities clearly and keeping everyone aligned.
  • Use funnel data (pass-through rates, decline reasons) to recalibrate strategy and influence change. 

Job Qualifications:
  • Proven full-cycle recruiting experience owning and prioritizing multiple reqs simultaneously.
  • A strategic sourcing mindset: you can build a search from a fuzzy intake and anticipate constraints before they become blockers.
  • Fluency with sourcing tools and channels, and clear judgment about where to invest effort first.
  • Strong stakeholder management—comfortable driving clarity with hiring managers, having hard conversations, and advising on tradeoffs.
  • Excellent candidate assessment and screening instincts.
  • Confident offer and closing skills, including high-stakes situations with multiple offers or comp/relocation complexity.
  • Data literacy: you use funnel metrics to diagnose problems and recalibrate.
  • A collaborative working style that elevates the broader recruiting team.

Job Details:
  • Job Type: Contract
  • Pay Range: $60-$67/hr
  • Location: Fully Remote.

Benefits Package: Protingent offers competitive salaries, insurance plan options (HDHP plan or POS plan), education/certification reimbursement, pre-tax commuter benefits, Paid Time Off (PTO), and an administered 401k plan.
