About The Role
Manifest is hiring a contract Technical Sourcer to own top-of-funnel recruiting for our highest-priority engineering and product roles. You'll source, engage, and pipeline candidates across disciplines including AI/ML, full-stack, backend, infrastructure, and data engineering. This is a high-ownership role with real visibility — your work directly shapes our ability to build technical teams. It's a 3-month engagement with the potential to extend depending on business needs.
What You’ll Do
- Own sourcing, outreach, and initial candidate engagement for technical roles
- Build pipelines across AI/ML, full-stack, backend, infrastructure, and data engineering
- Use AI tools like GrokBot to streamline sourcing and outreach workflows
- Keep candidate records, pipeline stages, and outreach activity current in Ashby
- Align with the recruiting team on role priorities and candidate profiles
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical work experience
- Experience sourcing technical talent across multiple engineering disciplines
- Ability to ramp quickly and work independently with minimal direction
- Strong organizational habits and a proactive approach to pipeline management
- Familiarity with Ashby or a comparable ATS
- Experience using AI tools or automation to improve recruiting workflows
- Comfort experimenting with new sourcing approaches and iterating quickly
This is for you if....
You want real ownership over top-of-funnel for high-impact technical hires. You like finding creative ways to reach great candidates using emerging tools. You thrive in lean teams where your contributions are immediately visible.
This is not for you if....
You need heavy structure or step-by-step direction to stay productive. You prefer long ramp time before taking ownership of a full pipeline. You're looking for a long-term, full-time role from day one.
