Base is America’s next-generation power company. We’re rebuilding the foundation of modern civilization–electricity–by deploying a vast network of distributed batteries that is transforming today’s fragile, centralized grid into a resilient and abundant system. We are engineers, operators, and creatives solving some of the most complex, interdisciplinary challenges of our time.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As a Technical Talent Partner, you will build teams for Base’s software and embedded engineering teams. You will run full-cycle recruiting from sourcing through offer close, partner directly with engineering leaders to scope roles and build focused interview processes, and move fast without compromising quality.
You’ll have a hand in building one of the fastest growing companies in America. Help us build the future of American power.
What You’ll Do
- Own full-cycle recruiting: run end-to-end hiring for software and embedded engineering roles, from sourcing to offer close.
- Source and engage talent: build pipelines of strong engineers, including passive candidates, in competitive technical markets.
- Go deep on the technical bar: understand what separates roles like firmware, embedded systems, and backend engineering well enough to screen for it and speak credibly with candidates.
- Partner with hiring managers: work with engineering leaders to scope roles, define interview loops, and calibrate on what excellent looks like for each one.
- Champion candidate experience: keep candidates informed at every stage, so every candidate, hired or not, leaves with a positive view of Base.
- Run on data: track pipeline health, time-to-fill, and stage conversion, and use that data to find bottlenecks and improve the process.
- Move at Base pace: manage a high volume of open roles at once and make sound, fast decisions.
What You’ll Bring
- 5+ years of technical recruiting experience with a track record of closing engineers.
- Experience recruiting in complex, hardware-adjacent environments, such as hardware and software, robotics, IoT, or manufacturing-driven companies.
- Proven ability to source, engage, and close candidates in competitive markets.
- Strong technical acumen: you go deep enough to evaluate real signal, whether that's through technical conversations, portfolio review, or knowing what good code actually looks like.
- A data-driven approach to recruiting: you track pipeline metrics and use them to make decisions, not just to report status.
- Comfort with ambiguity: you build processes where none exist and adjust quickly as priorities shift.
- Sound judgment under pace: you move fast without sacrificing candidate experience or the technical bar.
