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. We are looking for someone with a strong technical grounding, a genuine passion for the craft of sourcing, and the ability to operate with creativity and precision in an environment where 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 technology today. 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, and creative outreach to build strong candidate pipelines. 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. Demonstrate the ability to source and engage top technical talent in new and diverse European Union markets, adapting outreach and sourcing strategies to local talent landscapes and compliance requirements. What You Bring A strong desire to grow a career in sourcing, with clear dedication to advancing your craft and developing deep expertise in the field. Exceptional technical literacy - comfortable navigating complex technical conversations, parsing nuanced skill sets, and understanding the architecture of software and AI roles. Proven experience sourcing talent in highly dynamic and fast-paced environments where priorities shift and ambiguity is constant. Creativity and resilience: ability to design novel sourcing strategies, test new methods, and adapt quickly when faced with challenges. Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build trust and develop relationships with both candidates and internal partner teams. A mindset that thrives on curiosity, iteration, and impact - aligned with Perplexity AI’s ethos of building what has never been built before. At Perplexity, you’ll be part of a small, driven team where your contributions directly shape our growth trajectory - not just locally, but as we expand into new European Union markets. We operate with high velocity, intellectual rigor, and a deep trust in our people. If you are energized by finding extraordinary talent across borders, excited to work at the frontier of AI, and looking for a place to develop a world-class sourcing career, this role is your opportunity.
