About the position

CODE Staffing is seeking a Senior Technical Recruiter to join our team, either based in Houston, TX, or working remotely. This role is pivotal as we are not looking for a high volume of candidates; instead, we prioritize quality over quantity. The ideal candidate will be deeply embedded in the local Houston developer ecosystem, actively participating in user groups and events to build relationships and understand the community. This position is not just about filling roles; it’s about fostering long-term connections and being a part of the community. As the first recruiter in our funded startup, you will work closely with our COO to develop a strategic plan for sourcing and hiring top-level candidates. You will play a crucial role in shaping our recruitment efforts across the company. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to be at the forefront of a growing organization, with the chance to expand their skills and knowledge in a supportive environment. We are looking for someone who has a strong belief that the traditional recruitment approach is flawed. You will treat candidates as individuals, maintaining regular contact and focusing on long-term planning and commitment. A background in programming is advantageous, as you will be collaborating closely with the development community to understand their needs and preferences. Our compensation package includes a competitive salary range of $80,000 to $100,000, along with generous profit sharing and comprehensive healthcare benefits. This role is perfect for someone who is passionate about recruitment and wants to make a significant impact in a startup environment.
