Senior Talent Acquisition Executive (Tech & Sales Hiring)

Job Title: Senior Talent Acquisition Executive (Tech & Sales Hiring)

Experience: 2–4 years
Location: Bangalore
Model : 5 days working

Role Overview

You’re not here to “post jobs and wait.” This role is about aggressively building pipelines for hard-to-fill roles across GenAI, Cloud Engineering, and Sales. Expect ambiguity, pressure on timelines, and constant hiring manager pushback.

If you can’t source niche talent or push back on unrealistic expectations, this role will expose you fast.

Key Responsibilities

1. End-to-End Hiring Ownership

• Manage full-cycle recruiting for GenAI (ML Engineers, LLM Engineers, AI Researchers), Cloud (DevOps, SRE, Platform Engineers), and Sales (AE, SDR, Enterprise Sales) roles
• Partner with hiring managers to define realistic JDs (not fantasy unicorns)
• Drive hiring from intake to offer closure

2. Strong Sourcing (Non-Negotiable)

• Build talent pipelines using LinkedIn, GitHub, Kaggle, Stack Overflow, and niche communities
• Identify passive candidates—not just inbound applicants
• Use boolean search, X-ray, and sourcing hacks (if you don’t know these well, you’ll struggle)
• Good exposure in cloud, data & AI/ML hiring

3. Stakeholder Management

Challenge hiring managers when requirements are unrealistic
Maintain strong communication on pipeline health, bottlenecks, and delays
Push for faster decision-making (most recruiters fail here)

4. Metrics & Accountability

Own time-to-fill, offer acceptance rate, pipeline conversion ratios
Improve hiring efficiency using data—not gut feeling

Must-Have Skills

• 2–4 years in tech + sales hiring
• Proven experience in sourcing niche talent (NOT just inbound screening)
• Basic understanding of GenAI / Cloud ecosystems
• Strong stakeholder management
• High ownership mindset—no hand-holding
