Senior Technical Recruiter
Full-time · Fully Remote · Based in the Philippines · Direct Hire with U.S. Client
IMPORTANT: Direct experience recruiting technology professionals for U.S. employers through a recruitment agency, search firm, or internal talent acquisition team is mandatory. Applicants without this experience will be automatically rejected.
About the Opportunity
Alderstone Partners is representing a U.S. technology recruitment firm seeking an experienced Senior Technical Recruiter based in the Philippines to join its team directly and support recruitment across assigned U.S. markets.
This is a full time, direct hire opportunity with the client organization. The successful candidate will be employed directly by the client, not Alderstone Partners.
We are seeking a recruiter with demonstrated experience identifying, engaging, and evaluating technology professionals, with relevant exposure to software development, data, cloud infrastructure, quality assurance, and cybersecurity.
The ideal candidate can distinguish hands on technical experience from keyword familiarity and understand how technologies, product environments, and engineering responsibilities relate to a hiring brief. Beyond sourcing, this position requires sound candidate judgment, professional communication, and the ability to manage specialized searches independently.
What You Will Do
- Translate technical briefs into searches that distinguish programming languages, frameworks, infrastructure platforms, and required engineering depth.
- Source Software Engineers, Data Engineers, QA Engineers, DevOps Engineers, Cloud Engineers, and Cybersecurity professionals according to assigned searches.
- Screen for recent hands on experience, system scale, technical ownership, development environment, and relevant product or industry exposure.
- Differentiate software development, infrastructure, data, security, and technical support backgrounds rather than treating them as interchangeable.
- Use candidate explanations, professional profiles, and publicly available technical work to clarify fit before formal client evaluation.
- Conduct targeted Boolean searches, competitor research, and talent mapping to identify qualified active and passive candidates.
- Engage candidates through LinkedIn,
- Confirm compensation expectations, career interests, location preferences, availability, and alignment with the client’s requirements.
- Manage multiple searches, coordinate interviews, and maintain consistent candidate engagement through interview and offer stages.
- Maintain accurate ATS or CRM records, screening notes, candidate submissions, and pipeline updates while protecting confidential information.
- Communicate progress and search challenges promptly, and deliver consistent recruitment activity without compromising candidate quality.
What We Are Looking For
- Direct experience sourcing and screening technology candidates for the U.S. market.
- Working knowledge of software development, technical career paths, and common distinctions between engineering disciplines.
- Ability to discuss technical requirements clearly without claiming to replace a technical interviewer.
- Experience evaluating candidates by relevant projects, technical scope, and seniority rather than job titles alone.
- Familiarity with specialist sourcing channels such as GitHub or technical communities is an advantage.
- Previous experience with recruitment agencies, specialist search firms, staffing organizations, or relevant internal talent acquisition teams.
- Strong direct sourcing, Boolean search, passive candidate engagement, and relationship management skills.
- Excellent written and spoken English, with confidence communicating directly with U.S. candidates and hiring stakeholders.
- Experience using LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS or CRM platforms, recruiting databases, and other sourcing tools.
- Strong organization, attention to detail, discretion, and the ability to manage searches independently.
- Availability to support U.S. business hours based on client requirements.
