We’re looking for a Tech Talent Acquisition Lead to join our People team at Pigment! You’ll be part of a close-knit team of 2 dedicated to Talent Acquisition and a manager, focusing on our R&D department (Engineering, Product) and IT & Security.

In this role, you will combine a strong hands-on recruitment scope with a coordination / lead role across Tech hiring. You’ll act as a key relay between stakeholders (Hiring Managers, Leadership, TA) to bring structure, alignment, and efficiency to our hiring efforts.

This is not a people management role, but a high-impact IC position with ownership on both execution and coordination.

What you'll do

Own end-to-end hiring

  • Headhunt top talent for our Engineering, Product, IT, and Security teams by understanding needs, sourcing proactively, and engaging high-quality candidates

  • Own the full recruitment cycle: from screening to closing and onboarding for the roles you manage

  • Deliver an excellent candidate experience, ensuring every interaction is meaningful and aligned with our values

  • Drive closing strategies and support offer negotiations

  • Monitor talent acquisition metrics (pipeline health, conversion rates, time-to-hire)

  • Share insights and recommendations to improve efficiency and outcomes

Act as a coordination lead for Tech hiring

  • Act as a key point of contact and relay between TA, Hiring Managers, and leadership on hiring topics

  • Ensure alignment on hiring needs, priorities, and expectations across teams

  • Bring visibility on pipelines, risks, and progress, and help unblock situations when needed

  • Coordinate complex or high-priority roles, ensuring smooth and efficient processes

Partner closely with stakeholders

  • Coach hiring managers and interviewers on best practices, interview quality, and decision-making

  • Challenge and support stakeholders to maintain a high hiring bar and consistency across teams

  • Facilitate clear and efficient communication throughout the hiring process

Drive operational excellence & improvements

  • Identify bottlenecks and continuously improve hiring processes, workflows, and tools

  • Lead or contribute to key TA projects, such as:

    • Candidate experience improvements (communication, feedback loops, transparency)

    • Interview calibration and training

    • Employer branding initiatives in the tech ecosystem

  • Ensure consistency and scalability of our hiring practices

    Who you are

    • You have solid experience in Tech Talent Acquisition in a fast-growing environment, with strong exposure to Engineering hiring (from Junior to Staff level)

    • You are hands-on and execution-driven, comfortable owning roles end-to-end

    • You have experience working closely with senior stakeholders and know how to influence and align

    • You bring strong organizational and coordination skills, with the ability to create clarity in complex environments

    • You combine strategic thinking with operational excellence

    • You are data-driven and problem-solving oriented, using insights to improve performance

    • You have excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

    • You are fluent in French & English, both spoken and written
