About Arca Arca helps companies hire exceptional offshore talent for international teams. We are hiring a hands-on Technical Recruiter who can source, interview, and assess software engineers and technical specialists. This is not a general HR coordinator role. We need someone who has recruited technical talent inside a company, staffing firm, recruitment agency, outsourcing provider, or remote-talent business and has developed reliable judgment about candidate quality. You do not need to be a software engineer, but you must understand technical roles well enough to ask useful follow-up questions, identify inconsistencies, and separate deep experience from surface-level keyword matching. What You Will Do Own full-cycle recruiting from intake and calibration through sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer support, and placement. Translate client requirements into a clear search strategy, target profile, technical signals, and screening plan. Source active and passive candidates through LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean and X-ray search, GitHub, technical communities, job boards, referrals, and our ATS. Recruit and screen software engineers, Python developers, frontend, backend and full-stack developers, QA testers, QA automation engineers, DevOps and cloud engineers, data professionals, and adjacent technical talent. Conduct structured recruiter screens covering technical background, depth of ownership, problem-solving, communication, remote-work readiness, compensation, availability, and career goals. Use role-appropriate screens such as stack-specific questions, resume and project deep dives, GitHub or portfolio reviews, light live problem-solving, and administration of coding or work-sample assessments. Know the limits of recruiter-led screening and escalate deeper evaluations to an engineering interviewer when needed. Write evidence-based candidate summaries that explain why a person is or is not a strong match. Maintain accurate ATS records, timely follow-up, clean pipelines, and useful recruiting metrics. Partner with hiring managers and clients to calibrate the bar, incorporate feedback, and improve the search. Deliver a responsive, respectful candidate experience from first contact through decision. What success looks like Qualified shortlists arrive quickly without sacrificing quality. Hiring managers see clear evidence behind every recommendation. Interview-to-endorsement and endorsement-to-hire conversion improve over time. Candidate records and next steps are complete, current, and easy to audit. Passive candidates receive personalized, credible outreach. Technical screening decisions are consistent across roles and seniority levels. What we are looking for 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including at least 2 years focused on software engineering or closely related technical roles. Direct experience recruiting at a company, staffing firm, recruitment agency, outsourcing provider, or remote-talent company. A track record of sourcing, screening, and placing mid-level and senior technical candidates. Demonstrated ability to explain the difference between a strong engineer and an average candidate using evidence rather than intuition alone. Working knowledge of frontend versus backend, APIs, databases, testing, debugging, version control, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and software delivery. Hands-on experience with LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, and an ATS or recruiting CRM. Strong English communication, structured interviewing, professional writing, organization, and follow-through. Comfort working remotely and collaborating across international time zones, with consistent overlap with U.S. Eastern Time. High attention to detail and a quality-over-volume mindset. Nice to have Experience recruiting Filipino technical talent for U.S., Canadian, U.K., or Australian clients. Experience with Python, QA automation, DevOps and cloud, data engineering, or AI and ML searches. Experience reviewing GitHub profiles, portfolios, technical assessments, or structured interview scorecards. Agency, RPO, staff-augmentation, or offshore-recruiting experience. Experience improving recruiting playbooks, dashboards, funnel metrics, or interview rubrics.
