You'll run full-cycle recruitment for complex IT positions across European markets, working directly with client stakeholders to shape hiring strategies. The hard part: balancing competing priorities across multiple clients, each with their own urgency, technical depth, and hiring bar. This isn't assembly-line recruiting — you'll need to understand engineering domains deeply enough to be a credible partner to CTOs and VPs of Engineering.
Newxel builds dedicated R&D teams for tech companies worldwide, with 260+ specialists across Europe. The model is long-term strategic partnerships, not body-shopping. Teams are built to last, which means hiring quality matters more than speed, and every bad hire is a partnership risk, not just a backfill.
- Own end-to-end hiring for senior and niche engineering roles across multiple client accounts simultaneously
- Partner with client stakeholders to define role profiles, calibrate expectations, and push back when requirements are unrealistic
- Prepare market intelligence — salary benchmarks, candidate availability maps, competitor hiring activity — and use it to shape client conversations
- Work closely with the Talent Sourcing Team to prioritize pipelines and adjust sourcing strategies when market signals change
- Coordinate with the TA Lead and Customer Success on cross-account prioritization and resource allocation
- Continuously refine assessment methods — screening frameworks, technical evaluation criteria, interview structures — based on actual hiring outcomes
- Own the candidate experience from first touch to offer acceptance, ensuring consistency and professionalism at every stage
Must-have
- 4+ years of full-cycle IT recruiting in outstaffing or product companies — not staffing agencies, not generalist HR
- Deep understanding of software engineering roles, tech stacks, and how R&D teams are structured — enough to have a real conversation with a hiring manager about architectural decisions
- Advanced English (spoken and written) and professional Polish — both are daily working languages
- Market knowledge across Poland, Portugal, Romania, and adjacent talent markets
- Ability to shift between strategic advisory (shaping a client's hiring approach) and tactical execution (screening 15 candidates in a day)
- Experience navigating competing priorities in an international environment
Nice to have
- Familiarity with data-driven recruitment practices and AI-assisted sourcing tools
- Existing network in Polish or broader CEE tech communities
- Full remote from Poland with real autonomy — no micromanagement, no tracking software, no performative Slack presence
- A team that treats recruiting as a strategic function, not a service desk
- Direct access to AI-powered sourcing and analytics tools that most TA teams only read about
- Competitive comp with insurance, 20 days PTO, paid sick leave, and national holidays
