## Description

Zoox’s Talent team is seeking an Executive Sourcer to join our Executive Recruiting function. In this pivotal role, you will act as a force multiplier for our Executive Recruiting team, partnering directly with the business to identify the visionary leaders who will drive our mission forward.

This position requires a highly strategic mindset. You will develop recruitment strategies, create data-driven market maps, and uncover passive leadership talent for our most critical Director, VP, and C-Suite roles. You will serve as the first point of contact for industry leaders, acting as a brand ambassador to articulate the Zoox mission and value proposition.

### In this role, you will...

- Market Mapping: Conduct extensive research to map the talent landscape in relevant industries (e.g. robotics, AI, automotive, software, hardware, operations).

- Talent Strategy: Collaborate with the Executive Recruiting team and hiring partners to define search criteria and build top-of-funnel strategies for niche and hard-to-fill leadership roles.

- High-Touch Outreach: Craft bespoke, compelling outreach campaigns to engage passive executive candidates. You will move beyond standard InMails to find creative ways to connect with top-tier talent. 

- Candidate Assessment: Own the top-of-funnel screening process—conducting initial high-level screens to assess qualifications, leadership capability, cultural fit, and genuine interest in the Zoox mission, and driving the evaluation that shapes which candidates advance.

- Long-Term Nurturing: Build and maintain a network of potential future leaders, keeping warm relationships with top talent for future opportunities as we scale.

### Qualifications:

- Experience: 6+ years of total sourcing experience, with at least 1 year of experience focused on executive search (Director+).

- Executive Sourcing & Talent Mapping: Demonstrated expertise in proactive candidate sourcing, including developing and maintaining complex talent maps and pipelines.

- Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills. You must feel comfortable communicating with and influencing senior stakeholders and candidates.

- Business Acumen: Ability to quickly understand a broad range of domains (Autonomy, Hardware, Software, G&A, Operations) and articulate how a leader fits into the broader business strategy.

### Bonus Qualifications:

- Interest in the autonomous and electric vehicle industry.

- Expertise in leveraging ATS (we use Lever) to build metrics, sourcing strategies, and talent pipelines.
