About the Role
Salesforce is building the AI-powered future of enterprise software - and we need a world-class recruiter to help us win the most competitive talent market in the industry. This is a strategic seat at the table for a recruiter who has spent their career deeply embedded in technical recruiting, with the range to run both high-volume pipelines and complex, high-touch searches for hard-to-fill roles, at a company where the bar for talent is set at the top of the market for the next generation of innovators and builders.
You've recruited at scale across technical disciplines - software engineering, infrastructure, product, data, or research roles. You understand the nuances between technical specialties and can speak credibly to them. You've navigated nuanced leveling conversations, complex compensation structures, and competing offers from the best companies in the world - and you've won. You're equally comfortable running a high-volume req load and going deep on a single critical hire.
Now, bring that expertise to Salesforce, your pipeline and your craft will directly shape the teams building the most impactful products in the world.
