Job Summary:

The Senior Technical Recruiter is responsible for finding, engaging, and hiring technical and functional talent across North America (the United States, Canada, and Mexico), supporting two of Semtech’s business units as well as operations, sales, quality, and other functional groups. This is a direct-sourcing role for a recruiter who takes pride in reaching candidates that job postings alone will not, and engineering talent is at the core of the portfolio. The Senior Technical Recruiter owns requisitions from intake through offer acceptance, builds pipelines ahead of demand, and acts as a trusted advisor to hiring managers and HR Business Partners. The role operates with high autonomy and uses modern tools, including AI, to work efficiently.

Responsibilities:

  • Own full-cycle recruiting for a portfolio of engineering, operations, sales, quality, and other functional requisitions across two business units in the US, Canada, and Mexico, from intake strategy through offer acceptance, while delivering a strong candidate experience.
  • Source and engage passive talent directly using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean and X-ray search, professional networks, technical communities, and AI-enabled sourcing tools, building proactive pipelines for niche engineering roles before requisitions open.
  • Partner with hiring managers, HR Business Partners, and Total Rewards to align on role priorities, hiring timelines, and market realities; prepare compensation proposals and lead offer negotiations in line with regional practices and compliance requirements in each country.
  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date candidate records in the applicant tracking system, and provide regular pipeline and hiring progress updates, including the status of every open requisition, to TA leadership, business leaders, and HR Business Partners.
  • Track and report key KPI metrics such as time-to-fill, offer acceptance rate, pipeline health, requisition aging, and candidate quality, using the data to sharpen sourcing strategy and improve outcomes.
  • Build market intelligence on talent movement and competitor hiring, and develop relationships with universities and industry associations to support a sustainable pipeline of future talent.

Minimum Qualifications (MUST HAVES):

  • Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Engineering, Business, or a related field required; equivalent experience considered
  • 7+ years of technical recruiting experience required, including a proven track record hiring engineering talent end to end (hardware, software, electrical, or similar disciplines)
  • Demonstrated success sourcing passive candidates directly through LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean and X-ray search, and other channels
  • Experience managing multiple requisitions at once across a mix of engineering and non-engineering functions
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to partner with engineering leaders, business leaders, and HR teams
  • Experience with an applicant tracking system and reporting on recruiting metrics
  • Ability to work independently and stay proactive in a remote, fast-paced environment

Desired Qualifications (STRONG PLUSES):

  • Experience recruiting in the semiconductor, electronics, or broader high-tech industry
  • Familiarity with technical roles such as IC design, test, hardware, and software engineering
  • Experience with Workday as an applicant tracking system
  • Experience recruiting across the US, Canada, and Mexico, including knowledge of regional hiring practices
  • Experience recruiting for sales, quality, or operations roles in a technology or manufacturing environment
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools to improve sourcing, screening, or process efficiency
  • Experience with campus recruiting or building university and industry association partnerships

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.
