Hi I’m Colin, I lead Talent at Method, and I wrote every word of this job description below.

About the role

I’m hiring a Senior Technical Recruiter to own how we find, engage, and close the engineers and product people who build Method’s technology. The people we want rarely apply (though, there is a huge opportunity to optimize this channel!) They are weighing offers from the fastest-growing companies in the world, and bringing them to Method takes an outbound-savvy recruiter who can spot exceptional talent early then curate a candidate experience that both reflects our culture and demonstrates it is no-brainer why Method is a place worth working for.

You will own individual contributor hiring across Engineering, Product, and Design, as a true partner to our engineering and product leaders. Method operates lean: at just ~70 headcount total, each hire we make has a significant impact on Method’s trajectory, so our bar for talent is very high.

This is a role for someone energized by building from scratch, navigating ambiguity, and applying both recruiting fundamentals and AI-driven workflows to deliver outsized impact.

This role is based out of our NYC office and we have a flexible (but not full-time remote) hybrid policy that typically manifests as 2-4 days/week in office on average where you'll collaborate live and go on caffeine and lunch runs covered by the company.

What you'll do

  • Own full-cycle recruiting for all individual contributor roles across Engineering, Product, and Data.
  • Design, launch, and run Method's a repeatable software engineering internship program end to end, from sourcing channels to interview design and selection.
  • Spot gaps in the funnel, propose new tools or process changes, and make the case for them with data.
  • Raise the bar on candidate experience across Talent and sharpen how Method tells its story to technical talent.
  • Proactively introduce AI optimizations where it makes sense in the recruiting lifecycle

Who you are

  • 5+ years in a full cycle technical recruiting role with closing/negotiating experience
  • You have full-cycle technical recruiting experience and have personally hired exceptional engineers.
  • You know this talent intuitively. You’ve hired engineers that have significantly impacted business and technology outcomes.
  • You have a pulse on the tech scene and generally know what shops have top talent.
  • You care deeply about candidate experience and have experience curating an excellent and high-touch process for candidates.
  • You are outbound first. The best people will not apply, and you have the sourcing habits to find them.
  • You are a strong closer who has won candidates for companies whose name did not do the selling.
  • You are resilient. A low accept rate or a string of no's does not slow you down.
  • You are fluent with modern, AI-enabled sourcing and recruiting tools, and you keep testing new ones.
  • You are a builder. When you see a problem, you come back with a solution and the reasoning behind it.

Extra Awesome

  • Agency recruiting experience, especially placing engineers.
  • Experience building or running a university recruiting or internship program.
  • A record of strong engineering hires at an early-stage startup.
  • Candidate experience or employer brand ideas you have put into practice.

Interview Process

  1. Call with me (30min)
  2. Call with a peer (30min)
  3. Call with hiring manager in EPD (30min)
  4. Onsite Presentation of a take-home exercise (60min) 1:1 with other EPD hiring manager (30min)
  5. Sign off with a Co-Founder (30min)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
