- Pre-qualify candidates for English fluency, technical alignment, and cultural fit.
- Maintain regular communication with the Empirical recruiting team.
- Submit vetted candidates using our standardized process and templates.
- Track candidate progress and stay aligned with open roles and client priorities.

## WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- 5+ years in Talent Acquisition, including 3+ years in technical recruitment.
- Proven success sourcing LATAM talent for U.S. or global clients.
- Established network of senior engineers and technical professionals across LATAM, and the ability to quickly engage new talent through trusted relationships.
- Strong understanding of roles like Full Stack, Backend, Frontend, DevOps, and Data Engineering.
- Expertise with sourcing tools such as LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, GitHub, or HireEZ.
- Fluent in English and Spanish.
- Highly organized, proactive, and comfortable working independently.

WHY JOIN US?

- High-Trust Collaboration: Partner with a leading U.S. recruiting firm recognized for its precision and professionalism.
- Autonomy: Work remotely, manage your time, and focus on what you do best — connecting great people with great opportunities.
- Transparent Process: Clear communication, standardized candidate templates, and fast feedback loops.
- Ongoing Opportunities: Access to multiple active roles with strong hiring demand.
