Description:

Join our dynamic Talent team and be a driving force in our growth! We're hiring a full-time Talent Acquisition Advisor who is energized by the challenge of finding high-impact talent across both technical and senior leadership roles. This is a strategic role that requires someone who can partner closely with executives, understand nuanced org design needs, and confidently engage senior-level candidates across Product, Engineering, Design, and Operations.

This isn't your average recruiter role - we need someone who's passionate about building executive-caliber pipelines, leverages data to drive results, and knows how to thrive in a fast-paced, startup environment. If you bring a sharp eye for top-tier talent, love connecting people to purpose, and are energized by solving complex hiring challenges, we want to meet you.

The Homie Way - These principles guide everything we do-from how we work and make decisions to how we show up for each other.
  • Be Customer Obsessed - Solve problems with empathy and creativity.
  • Move Fast, Learn Fast - Experiment, take action, and grow every day.
  • Own Your Impact - Think big, focus on what matters, and make decisions you stand behind.
  • Master Your Craft - Excellence fuels impact-show up, step up, and make your mark.
  • Win Together - Put goals over roles, lead with trust, and connect to our mission and each other.


You're a bar raiser, which means you come with:
  • 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience in high-growth, fast-scaling startup environments.
  • 2+ years of experience hiring for Director-level and above roles across departments (e.g. Product, Engineering, Design, Marketing, Operations, People).
  • 2+ years of technical recruiting experience, especially for Software Engineers (RoR, React, Swift, Swift UI, Objective C, Kotlin) and Product roles.
  • Ability to influence and advise senior leaders with confidence, data, and market insights.
  • Strong track record of sourcing and engaging passive talent, especially at the leadership level.
  • A collaborative mindset and a passion for building diverse, high-performing teams.
  • Experience building and maintaining trusted, consultative relationships with internal stakeholders and candidates.
  • Advanced proficiency with Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter, and sourcing tools like SeekOut, HireEZ, or Stack Overflow.
  • Ability to collaborate in-office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.


As a Talent Acquisition Advisor, you will make an impact by:
  • Building and executing recruitment strategies specifically focused on product, design, and engineering roles, with an emphasis on attracting candidates who thrive in scaling startup environments.
  • Developing a strong pipeline of passive and active candidates through creative sourcing techniques.
  • Partnering closely with hiring managers to understand role requirements and tailor recruitment efforts accordingly.
  • Acting as a strategic, trusted partner to hiring teams and EPDD leadership ensuring they are equipped with insights, resources, and best practices to interview and make assured business and hiring choices.
  • Driving an inclusive hiring process that aligns with Homebase's commitment to diversity and equity.
  • Contributing to talent strategy discussions to continuously improve our hiring processes.
  • Tracking and analyzing hiring metrics to inform data-driven recruitment strategies.
  • Understanding and utilizing recruitment analytics and metrics to assess pipeline health, identify areas for improvement, and implement proactive sourcing and outreach methods to captivate top-tier candidates.
  • Bringing thoughtful, creative, and bold new ideas to help iterate and optimize our hiring efforts and relentlessly work toward continuously improving our processes and efficiencies.
