At Perplexity AI, we are building products that push the boundaries of how people find, reason, and learn information. The scale and speed of our mission demand a team that thrives in environments of rapid iteration and constant discovery. As a Technical Sourcer, you will be at the forefront of shaping the talent foundation that fuels our growth. This is not a traditional sourcing role. We are looking for a builder with strong technical grounding, a genuine passion for the craft of sourcing, and the ability to operate with creativity and precision in an environment where constant change and ambiguity is the norm. You will partner closely with recruiters, hiring managers, and engineers to identify, engage, and inspire world-class talent, helping build a team capable of solving some of the most challenging problems in AI today. Just as importantly, you will use AI to automate and augment your own workflow, treating sourcing as a system to be engineered rather than a set of manual tasks. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Research, identify, and engage engineering and technical talent across multiple disciplines and experience levels - Collaborate with recruiters and hiring teams to deeply understand technical requirements and calibrate profiles with accuracy and nuance - Use a wide range of sourcing strategies, including advanced research, talent mapping, referrals, AI-assisted automation, and creative outreach, to build strong candidate pipelines. - Build and refine your own tooling and workflows, leveraging AI to automate repetitive work and spend more of your time on high-judgment sourcing - Act as a candidate's first introduction to Perplexity AI, delivering an authentic and compelling story about our mission, product, and team culture - Track and analyze pipeline data to drive continuous optimization and improvements in sourcing approaches - Operate with agility, adapting quickly to shifting priorities, hard-to-fill roles, and changing team needs WHAT YOU BRING -
