Lead Sourcing Recruiter

At Dragos, the mission is personal. The systems we protect deliver the water you drink, power your home, and keep the hospitals your community depends on running.

We're hiring a Lead Sourcing Recruiter to build the talent pipelines to drive our next phase of growth. This is a research-driven, market-facing role: you'll map the specialized talent markets we compete in, provide intel to key stakeholders, and find the people who won't be found through a job posting.

Responsibilities

• Build talent market maps and competitor analyses that tell hiring managers where the talent is, who has it, and what it will take to move them.
• Advise stakeholders with real market intelligence - compensation benchmarks, skill scarcity, and talent availability by region, so hiring decisions are grounded in data rather than assumption.
• Design targeted sourcing strategies for niche and highly technical markets, including the ones where conventional search returns nothing useful.
• Engage passive talent with outreach worth responding to and cultivate those relationships over months or years rather than days.
• Run multiple complex searches in parallel without letting quality or candidate experience slip.
• Track pipelines rigorously and analyze funnel metrics (response rates, conversion health, time-in-stage) then adjust your approach based on what the data shows.
• Partner with recruiters and hiring managers across the business to translate vague role concepts into searchable, well-defined profiles.

Requirements

• 7+ years sourcing specialized talent across highly technical domains.
• A track record of finding and landing technical talent that competitors missed.
• Genuine interest in AI and how it's reshaping sourcing research and workflows.
• Fluency with sourcing research methods: Boolean, market mapping, org charting, and whatever you've built yourself.
• Comfort presenting market intelligence to senior stakeholders and defending a recommendation with data.
• A real appreciation for the research and mapping side of the craft.

Nice to Have

• Experience sourcing in cybersecurity, OT/ICS, industrial technology, or another deeply specialized technical market.
• Experience building sourcing processes, playbooks, or tooling from scratch.

Compensation

• Salary: $155,000.00
• Competitive Equity Package
• Comprehensive Benefits Plan
