If you want to be part of a team that's redefining the future of education, we’d love to hear from you!

As a Talent Acquisition Specialist, you will own our full hiring cycle, from sourcing top-tier talent to accepted offer, across technical and non-technical roles.

You'll join the People & Culture team, reporting to our Talent Partner, and become the go-to person for hiring managers across the company.

What you’ll do

• Own the full recruitment cycle for your assigned roles, from the kickoff meeting with hiring managers to offer acceptance.
• Source proactively for roles that are hard to fill, adapting your approach to what the market is showing.
• Partner with hiring managers: align on profiles and scorecards, share structured candidate feedback, and bring talent, data and recommendations to the table when needed.
• Coach hiring managers on the TA process, structured scorecards, consistent assessment and guidance on best practices.
• Build talent pipelines for recurring roles and keep strong finalists from past processes warm.
• Track core recruitment KPIs and flag friction or risk early, with proposed adjustments.
• Improve how we hire: better processes, better tooling, and AI wherever it adds speed or quality.
• Deliver an outstanding candidate experience: every candidate, hired or not, leaves the process with clarity and respect.
• Keep our ATS (Teamtailor) impeccable, so data enables reporting and decision-making.

What you’ll bring

• +4 years of experience in talent acquisition, running several searches in parallel, autonomously and from start to finish, ideally in an internal TA team at a tech company, startup or gaming/entertainment studio.
• You've managed 5–8 active searches at a time across different areas without dropping the ball.
• Experience hiring technical and/or creative roles (engineering, product, design, game development).
• Strong sourcing skills: you master LinkedIn Recruiter and boolean search, and you know how to find and engage passive candidates for competitive profiles, not just manage inbound.
• Comfortable with data: you analyze your own funnel, spot where a search is stuck, and bring numbers to the conversation.
• Excellent stakeholder management: you communicate clearly with hiring managers and leadership, push back with data when needed, and know when to escalate.
• Hands-on with AI in recruitment: you already use AI tools in your daily work (sourcing, screening support, process automation).
• Deliver an exceptional candidate experience: a track record of building trusted relationships with candidates and delivering a positive, engaging journey from first contact to offer.

English is a must: We’re a multicultural team providing a service in English, so while certifications aren’t necessary, fluency is essential. As a fully remote company, clear and effective spoken and written communication, especially in asynchronous and long-form formats, is key to collaborating successfully.
