About The Role We're looking for a Technical Recruiter to join our global Talent team at ElevenLabs. This is not a conventional recruiter role — you'll own complex, high-impact technical hiring end to end, with a focus on Forward Deployed Engineering: engineers who work shoulder-to-shoulder with customers, from pre-sales evaluation through post-sales implementation. You’ll shape search strategy, build pipelines at the intersection of deep technical ability and customer‑facing craft, and close candidates who are genuinely rare. You'll partner with engineering and revenue leadership to redefine what great FDE hiring looks like at scale, as part of a small, high‑bar team with an uncompromising standard for quality of hire. If you’re energized by ownership, creative problem‑solving, and building hiring systems that scale, this role will stretch and level up your career. What your day might look like
Owning full‑cycle recruiting for highly technical roles across our forward deployment team including solutions engineers and deployment strategists. Partnering closely with hiring managers to deeply understand problems, calibrate on signals, and continuously raise the hiring bar. Designing and executing thoughtful search strategies — from market mapping and outreach to interview design and closing. Managing multiple complex searches simultaneously without sacrificing candidate experience or quality. Acting as a trusted advisor to candidates, guiding them through a rigorous process with clarity, empathy, and conviction. Serving as an ambassador for ElevenLabs — every interaction reflects our values and sets the tone for the candidate experience. Continuously improving how we hire by iterating on processes, tooling, and data‑driven insights.
Requirements
Proven experience hiring top‑tier technical and forward deployed talent in competitive markets (we’d love to see ~3+ years, but impact matters more than years). Experience running full‑cycle technical recruiting, including sourcing strategy, stakeholder management, and closing. Strong ability to manage high‑complexity searches with many moving parts — you stay structured, adaptable, and focused. Skilled at translating technical and business needs into clear hiring strategies and compelling candidate narratives. Excellent written and verbal communication — you build trust with both deeply technical candidates and senior stakeholders. Comfortable operating in fast‑paced, remote‑first environments and collaborating across global time zones. Curious, creative, and genuinely interested in engineering, AI, and how exceptional teams are built.
Bonus
Experience recruiting globally across multiple regions, with a particular preference for LATAM, APAC and EMEA. Background in high‑growth startups, AI native companies, or similarly fast‑moving environments. A builder’s mindset: you experiment, learn quickly, spot patterns, and continuously refine recruiting playbooks and processes.
Location This role is remote and can be executed globally. However we have a strong preference for LATAM, APAC, and EMEA regions. #J-18808-Ljbffr
