Technical Recruiter & People Partner

Описание на позицията

Job Overview This is a newly created position with a double mandate. First, you will own hiring at DHR end to end, with a primary focus on engineering roles: build the recruitment function from the ground up, define how we attract candidates, and shape how DHR is perceived on the market. Second, you will own the employee experience after the hire — driving the satisfaction, wellbeing, and retention of the team you help build. Hiring brilliant engineers only matters if they stay and thrive.

You will work directly with the engineering team and management, giving you full context on what we are building, the profiles we need, and how the team is really doing.

Responsibilities Recruitment & Employer Brand Manage the full recruitment cycle for engineering roles: sourcing, screening, scheduling, and offer stage

Create and maintain DHR's employer profiles on job boards, university career portals, and student platforms

Own DHR's participation in career fairs and university job days: identify the right events, register the company, prepare the materials, and be present on site

Build and maintain relationships with universities, student organisations, meetups, and developer communities to secure a steady flow of candidates

Track candidates and keep the process moving, with timely communication at every stage

Partner with engineering managers to define role requirements and candidate profiles

Employee Experience, Wellbeing & Retention

Own the employee satisfaction and engagement strategy: design and run regular pulse surveys, analyse the results, and drive concrete action plans with management

Develop and lead wellbeing initiatives — from onboarding experience and recognition to work-life balance — and measure their adoption and impact

Monitor retention and turnover; conduct stay and exit interviews to identify root causes of attrition and recommend interventions

Report to management on engagement, satisfaction, and retention trends with actionable recommendations
