We are a diverse, fully-distributed team from around the world, working toward a shared vision to raise the standard of trust online.
Join us as a remote Talent Acquisition Manager to help shape the future growth of the DuckDuckGo team.
As part of our Talent Acquisition team, you will be collaborating with stakeholders across our organization to understand their unique hiring needs, provide advice on the criteria for their requisitions, source diverse candidates, and manage the end-to-end hiring process. You will also work with cross-functional stakeholders to propose and lead hiring process improvement initiatives.
We empower our team to be self-directed and self-motivated in their work. If you'd thrive in that environment, and our core values resonate with you -- build trust, question assumptions, and validate direction -- you'll fit right in!

- Lead development of new hiring requisitions by collaborating with hiring teams on candidate evaluation criteria, evaluation project design, and writing the job description.
- Propose and lead process improvement initiatives aimed at scaling our hiring operations.
- Find unique ways to source candidates and execute experiments to determine effectiveness.
- Own the end-to-end hiring process, including sourcing, screening resumes, interviewing applicants, extending offers, and managing the candidate experience.
- Consult with hiring teams to offer insight into decision-making throughout the hiring process.
- Participate in our passive hiring and internal referrals strategy.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
- Minimum of five years of experience in talent acquisition, leading end-to-end hiring processes.
- Proven success in hiring for IT openings (e.g. software engineers, site reliability).
- Experience leading or significantly contributing to hiring process improvement initiatives.
- Strong organizational skills - you have an eye for detail and are not afraid to use it!
- Effective project management skills.
- Strong communication skills - you clearly articulate your recommendations and decisions, whether verbal or written.
- Comfortable providing feedback to an array of internal and external stakeholders.
