Tech Recruiter

BJAK


Date: 1 week ago
City: Petaling Jaya
Contract type: Full time
Hire Fast. Hire Right. Build the Future.

At BJAK, we move fast, and we expect our hiring to keep up. We’re looking for a Technical Recruiter who’s obsessed with results, thrives in chaos, and gets the job done. You’ll be the one turning urgent headcount into hired engineers and tech leaders. If the pipeline isn’t moving, you’ll push it. If candidates go silent, you’ll bring them back. If the role is hard to fill, you’ll find a way.

This is not a coordination role. This is a builder’s role. You’ll own technical hiring from end to end, work directly with engineering and product leaders, and make sure every critical role gets filled fast and with quality.

What You’ll Do

  • Take full ownership of technical roles from intake to offer
  • Proactively source candidates across multiple platforms, communities, and channels
  • Monitor pipeline velocity, spot bottlenecks early, and resolve them aggressively
  • Push hiring teams and candidates to keep processes moving — no unnecessary delays
  • Drive structured interviews and guide interviewers on consistency and candidate experience
  • Conduct thoughtful phone screens that go beyond buzzwords and test for real potential
  • Track pipeline movement, candidate aging, and rejection reasons with precision
  • Follow up relentlessly with candidates, hiring managers, and internal stakeholders
  • Keep hiring momentum high and outcomes clear: hired or not hired — no grey zones
  • Deliver a fast, transparent, human-first experience to all candidates

What We’re Looking For

  • You are relentless — you do what it takes to get roles filled with quality
  • You care deeply about end results, not just activity
  • You’re comfortable pushing back, following up, and holding others accountable
  • You operate with urgency — every day without a hire is a missed opportunity
  • You’re resourceful — if you can’t find the perfect candidate, you find the best one available and make it work
  • You’re emotionally intelligent — you build trust fast with candidates and hiring managers
  • You’re metrics-aware — velocity, drop-off, offer rate, aging — all tracked, all optimized
  • You’re startup-aligned — you work fast, adapt faster, and don’t wait for permission

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You...

  • Take pride in closing roles, not just filling pipelines
  • Have a sixth sense for strong tech talent — even if their resume isn’t perfect
  • Don’t give up easily — you follow up, chase down, and make it happen
  • Enjoy being the driver of the hiring process, not the passenger
  • Have a strong sense of ownership — you don’t drop the ball
  • Are clear, concise, and persuasive in your communication
  • Know how to balance speed with candidate experience

The Right Fit Has...

  • Bachelor’s degree with strong academic performance (high CGPA) from a reputable university.
  • A bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field is a plus
  • 1–4 years of experience in full-cycle recruitment, ideally in tech or high-growth environments
  • Proven track record of filling technical roles under pressure
  • Strong sourcing skills and familiarity with platforms like LinkedIn, GitHub, and Stack Overflow
  • Experience using ATS platforms and tracking recruitment metrics
  • Excellent stakeholder management and the ability to influence decisions
  • Resilience, ownership, and an execution-first mindset

Nice to Have

  • Experience hiring software engineers, AI, or DevOps professionals
  • Familiarity with startup or scale-up hiring environments
  • Regional recruitment exposure (especially Southeast Asia)
  • Knowledge of structured and behavioral interviewing

Our Team & Culture

We’re lean, fast, and output-obsessed. Titles don’t matter — ownership does. We move fast, iterate quickly, and focus on results. Everyone is expected to drive things forward, take responsibility, and make decisions that matter.

If you’re the type of recruiter who gets frustrated when things move slowly and would rather jump in and fix it, you’ll love it here.

Why Join BJAK

  • Competitive salary and performance rewards
  • Accelerated career path and growth opportunities
  • Mission-driven work that impacts millions across the region
  • Flat, no-politics, high-trust environment
  • Real autonomy and a chance to move the needle
