Technical Recruiting Manager

Key Highlights

• Lead and develop a team of technical recruiters: coach for quality over throughput, hold a high bar on technical screening and debrief quality, and invest in each person’s growth, including those who are already strong.
• Partner directly with engineering and product leadership: build trusted working relationships with our CPO, Head of Engineering, and Head of Security; push back constructively when you disagree; bring data and honest assessments to every conversation.
• Standardize technical interviewer training: build a program that’s practical and low-lift for interviewers and tied to real calibration outcomes for the engineers who interview frequently at Chainguard.
• Own recruiting strategy across engineering, product, and security: set sourcing strategy, hiring timelines, and quality thresholds for your function; know when a req needs a different approach and have the credibility to drive that conversation.
• Manage a high-volume, high-complexity pipeline: keep your team focused, unblocked, and making good decisions in an environment where priorities shift, and the quality bar is high.
