Human Resources$75/hrPart-time

About The Role

Prophet is building MAIA—a platform that integrates directly into workflows to amplify human insight through Augmented Intelligence. This role is part of the AI Foundry team, which is scaling rapidly. As a contract technical recruiter, you will own full-cycle sourcing and screening for the Foundry’s growing technical roster.

Responsibilities

  • Run point on identifying and landing strong engineering talent—sourcing, screening for real depth, and partnering directly with the Recruiting Manager and hiring leads to move great candidates through the process quickly.
  • Proactively source passive and active candidates across LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, and other channels.
  • Screen inbound and sourced candidates for technical fit, seniority, and role alignment before advancing them into the interview process.
  • Write clear, structured screen summaries/debriefs that let the Recruiting Manager and hiring leads make fast, confident advance/pass decisions.
  • Own pipeline management: keep Greenhouse stages, dispositions, scorecards, and notes accurate and current at all times.
  • Manage candidate outreach, scheduling, and communication with a level of polish that reflects well on Prophet and the Foundry.
  • Calibrate continuously with the Recruiting Manager and hiring leads, refining search criteria and screening rubrics as each search progresses.
  • Flag market intelligence—compensation benchmarks, competing offers, candidate availability trends—as it surfaces.
  • Speak knowledgeably to candidates about MAIA, the Foundry team, and Prophet's leveling structure.
  • Provide a regular (e.g., weekly) pipeline update: volume, source effectiveness, screen-to-onsite conversion, and blockers.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, ideally including AI/ML, data science, or platform engineering roles.
  • Demonstrated ability to source and screen for niche, senior technical talent—not just generalist software engineering.
  • Comfort operating independently with light day-to-day oversight; this person owns their pipeline.
  • Strong written communication—screen summaries and candidate outreach need to be sharp and structured.
  • Greenhouse experience strongly preferred; ATS fluency required at minimum.
  • Experience recruiting into a consulting, agency, or professional-services environment is a plus, given the cross-functional nature of these roles.

Qualifications

  • Compensation: $75/hr - flexible
  • Prophet is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills.
