Senior Technical Recruiter

Senior Technical RecruiterDepartment: Recruiting and OperationsTeam: RecruitmentLocation: Remote — Latin America (LATAM preferred) / US-friendly hoursCommitment: Full-TimeWorkplace type: Remote> This is the junior counterpart to Hop's Principal Technical Recruiter role. Same mission, same Moon Engine exposure — just calibrated for recruiters with 2–5 years of technical recruiting experience who want to grow into a Principal seat over the next 18–24 months. The Mission

You'll start by doing what you do best: running full-cycle searches on technical roles and building strong candidate and client relationships. But this isn't a traditional recruiting role. While you deliver hiring outcomes, you'll also learn how to integrate AI into every part of the recruiting workflow — and eventually help clients do the same as our platform launches. Hop works with Fortune 500 companies and top VC-backed startups, specializing in GenAI, ML, Data Science, Data Engineering, Software Engineering, and Product talent. We're pre-launch on Moon Engine, an agent-orchestrated recruiting ops system where autonomous agents act as decision partners, coordinating hiring with governance and auditability. At Hop, you'll grow into a player-coach: a hands-on recruiter today, an AI-enabled recruiting advisor tomorrow. You'll work alongside senior recruiters and our engineering and product teams to test Moon Engine, give critical feedback, and master the future of recruiting. Think of it as dual-track growth: deepen your recruiting craft while becoming an expert in AI-orchestrated hiring workflows — with a clear path to a Principal seat as you mature.

What Makes This Different

You're not choosing between recruiting or AI. You're learning both. • Hands-on recruiting excellence: You'll own searches for mid-to-senior technical talent — sourcing, engaging, interviewing, and closing. Real, high-stakes work with senior recruiter mentorship. • Learn AI integration deeply: As you recruit, you'll progressively adopt Moon Engine's capabilities — from AI-assisted sourcing to automated screening. You'll become fluent in how AI amplifies (not replaces) recruiter judgment. • Product development partner: Sit close to our engineering and product teams. Your real-world recruiting experiences become product requirements. Your feedback shapes what gets built. • Customer enablement track: As Moon Engine launches, you'll help onboard enterprise clients — teaching them what you've learned and growing into a trusted advisor role.

What You'll Actually Do
