This autonomous position suits an experienced professional who can translate global employment value propositions into localized, high-converting recruitment strategies. The role requires bridging talent acquisition, brand leadership, and engineering teams by utilizing developer community engagement, physical events, and targeted multi-channel campaigns to attract elite technical talent.
The successful candidate will operate with high agency in an ambiguous, hyper-growth environment, establishing foundational narratives for early engineering cohorts. Responsibilities involve designing developer event funnels, producing technical enablement assets for recruiters, managing dedicated talent marketing budgets, and optimizing performance metrics focused strictly on pipeline contribution and hiring outcomes rather than vanity statistics.

- Partner with technical recruitment leads and engineering directors to build multi-channel campaigns for hard-to-fill roles
- Translate distributed systems and fintech infrastructure challenges into rigorous technical messaging
- Equip recruitment teams with outbound pitch decks, technical one-pagers, and culture collateral
- Manage and allocate talent marketing budgets with a focus on cost-per-hire and pipeline contribution
Requirements
- Over eight years of leadership experience in talent marketing, technical recruitment marketing, or developer advocacy
- Demonstrated background building talent brand presence and hiring pipelines across European tech ecosystems
- Track record of zero-to-one market entry where the employer brand was initially nascent or non-existent
- Experience working in hyper-growth fintech, high-frequency payments, or distributed systems environments
- Direct hands-on experience designing developer events and nurturing candidate journeys
- Fundamental fluency in software engineering culture, tech stacks, and developer communication channels
