We are looking for a Recruiting Sourcer to play a key role in the continued growth and success of Datadog by finding exceptional talent. The Senior Sourcer will partner closely with Recruiters to develop creative and tailored strategies to engage passive candidates. You will be the first point of contact for new candidates in the hiring process, playing a critical role in identifying great candidates and telling the Datadog story.
At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
What You’ll Do:
- Build and maintain pipelines of active and passive candidates for our most senior and hard-to-fill roles, using LinkedIn Recruiter, our internal CRM, sourcing campaigns, past event attendee lists, and other channels
- Promote open roles internally and partner with employees to surface talent in their networks
- Build and run the sourcing strategy for each search - set the approach, test and iterate on outreach messaging, and track progress against the data
- Partner directly with hiring managers up to the executive level: set expectations at kickoff, report progress with data, and reset the strategy as needed
- Research non-obvious talent pools to reach candidates who would otherwise stay off the radar
- Map the talent market: where our target talent works, how it moves, and which companies are losing people
- Own sourcing events and projects end to end, from planning through follow-up
Who You Are:
- 7+ years of sourcing experience at a search firm or on an in-house recruiting team
- An early adopter who uses AI and new tooling to work faster, and improves the process
- Experienced partnering with senior stakeholders, and able to use data to manage expectations and influence hiring decisions
- A clear communicator who moves with urgency and pays attention to detail
- Someone who consistently converts passive prospects into engaged candidates
- Able to work independently across multiple open roles at once
- Curious, creative, and driven by results
Datadog values people from all walks of life. We understand not everyone will meet all the above qualifications on day one. That's okay. If you’re passionate about technology and want to grow your skills, we encourage you to apply.
Benefits and Growth:
- Generous and competitive benefits package
- New hire stock equity (RSUs) and employee stock purchase plan
- Continuous career development and pathing opportunities
- Product training to develop an in-depth understanding of our product and space
- Best in breed onboarding
- Internal mentor and buddy program cross-departmentally
- Friendly and inclusive workplace culture
Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with Datadog.
