We are NYC based but remote friendly!

 

Hello, World! Codecademy has helped over 45 million people from around the world upgrade their careers with engaging, accessible, and flexible education on programming and data skills. We provide over 200 hands-on interactive lessons ranging from Python to R to Javascript and everything in between. Our learners have gone on to start companies, new jobs, and new lives thanks to what they’ve learned with Codecademy, and we’re thrilled to be working to take that impact to the next level.

Codecademy was started in 2011 by two college students in a dorm room at Columbia that were frustrated by the huge gap between education and employment. A few years later, we are a rapidly growing, diverse team of 75+ in SoHo, NYC. We’ve raised over $40m in venture capital funding from top investors including Union Square Ventures, Kleiner Perkins, Naspers, Y Combinator, and more.

If you want to help build a business that impacts tens of millions of people each year and helps them lead better lives, join us!

Codecademy's talent team is a collaborative and supportive team dedicated to sourcing and hiring the best candidates to help build the tools to teach millions of learners to code. We are looking for a driven Lead Technical Recruiter to partner directly with our VP, Engineering, taking ownership of senior-level engineer hiring and all niche technical roles. This role will be seen as a leader on the Talent team, tasked with mentoring Associates and Mid-Level Recruiters in a high-growth environment.

  • Continuously find opportunities to relentlessly improve and fine tune process to deliver best-in-class candidate experience
  • Work with the Talent Team to develop innovative recruiting and  sourcing strategies that realize diversity, inclusion, and talent for Codecademy
  • Work on cross-functional project work and participate in recruiting events as needed

What You'll Need

  • 8+ years of technical recruitment experience across agency and in-house; ideally 4+ years of in-house experience
  • Proven track record of identifying and assessing top talent
  • Sourcing experience using a variety of tools--LinkedIn Recruiter is a plus
  • Experience using email campaign tools--Hiretual or Gem is a plus
  • Experience using application tracking systems--Greenhouse is a plus
  • A commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion
  • A meticulous approach to organization
  • An innate understanding of how to prioritize
  • Excellent written and verbal interpersonal skills to effectively communicate the Codecademy mission to candidates

What Will Make You Stand Out

  • Technical recruiting experience both in house and with some agency roots
  • Startup or SaaS recruiting experience
  • Network of engineering employees in NYC area
  • Data analytical experience to derive insights from recruiting data
  • At Codecademy, an interest in learning to code is strongly preferred

Codecademy aims to educate a richly diverse demographic of users with our product and in order to accomplish this, we believe our team should reflect that rich diversity.
