Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist

As a Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist at OneSeven Tech, you'll be the driving force behind scaling our two core service offerings: Staff Augmentation and Managed Teams. For our Managed Teams service, you'll assemble project-based product teams for 3, 6, or 12-month engagements where we act as consultants, selecting the optimal technology stack based on each client's specific business use case. This means you'll need to continuously source, nurture, and maintain relationships with top-tier talent across all technical disciplines and design specialties throughout LATAM. Your expertise will be essential in building our "always-ready" talent pipeline, ensuring we can rapidly deploy the perfect team composition for any project that comes our way.

You are a seasoned talent acquisition professional who excels at building and maintaining extensive talent networks across diverse technical disciplines and design specialties. You have a deep understanding of the differences between programming languages, frameworks, and technical architectures, enabling you to identify and attract the best talent for any technology stack we might need. You're a skilled talent hunter who knows how to spot exceptional developers and designers, and you're not afraid to proactively reach out and recruit top performers from other companies. You understand that as a consultancy, we need to be prepared for any project - from React frontends to Python backends, from AI/ML solutions to mobile apps, from UX/UI design to DevOps infrastructure. Your extensive network and relationship-building skills across LATAM will be crucial to our success.
