[Hiring] Senior Recruiter @Go Cadre

Role Description

The Senior Recruiter owns talent acquisition for Cadre AI across two markets: the United States and Colombia. This is a proactive, outbound-first role. You are not waiting for applications to come in. You are identifying, engaging, and moving the right people through the pipeline before they’re actively looking.

You will recruit across a range of roles—AI engineers, strategists, operations, and business functions, while simultaneously building the recruiting infrastructure that makes Cadre faster and smarter at hiring. That means owning our ATS, optimizing our AI recruiting tools, running outbound campaigns, and continuously evaluating new technology that gives us an edge.

The bar for this role is high and the metrics are clear: 50+ qualified candidates contacted per open role per week, and 5–10 screening calls completed per open role per week. You will be measured on pipeline quality, not just volume.

What You’ll Do

• Drive Outbound Sourcing and Pipeline
  • Proactively source and contact 50+ qualified candidates per open role per week, maintaining a healthy and well-documented pipeline at all times.
  • Complete 5–10 screening calls per open role per week, ensuring pipeline velocity stays consistent and hiring managers always have qualified candidates to evaluate.
  • Build and execute targeted outbound campaigns across LinkedIn, LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox, email, Wellfound, GitHub, Slack communities, Discord servers, and local engineering and technical communities.
  • Leverage Gem’s sourcing capabilities to identify and surface qualified candidates directly within the platform, reducing reliance on manual cross-tool searches.
  • Continuously test and refine outreach messaging, subject lines, and sequencing to improve response rates and candidate quality.
  • Identify and engage passive candidates who are not actively job searching, building relationships that convert over time.
• Own the ATS and Recruiting Infrastructure
  • Own and optimize Cadre AI’s ATS (Gem), ensuring the platform is configured for maximum efficiency.
  • Build and maintain Gem workflows that reduce manual work, surface the right candidates at the right time, and give leadership clear visibility into pipeline health.
  • Ensure all candidate data is accurate, up to date, and properly tagged.
  • Develop and maintain role-specific Ideal Candidate Profiles in Gem that sharpen sourcing accuracy and reduce time-to-qualify.
• Optimize and Expand AI Recruiting Tools
  • Maximize Cadre AI’s use of AI-powered recruiting tools including Gem and Juicebox.
  • Continuously evaluate emerging AI recruiting tools and platforms, running structured assessments and bringing clear recommendations to the Ops Manager.
  • Identify automation and AI opportunities across the recruiting lifecycle and implement improvements.
  • Stay current on developments in AI-assisted recruiting and bring best practices back to the team.
• Partner on Hiring Strategy and Execution
  • Partner with the Ops Manager and hiring managers to deeply understand each open role.
  • Manage full-cycle recruiting for assigned roles: sourcing, outreach, screening, coordination, and offer support.
  • Maintain structured, consistent communication with candidates throughout the process.
  • Track and report on recruiting metrics weekly.
  • Flag bottlenecks, drop-off points, and market signal back to leadership.

Qualifications
