We’re looking for a Technical Sourcer with a strong background in hardware and engineering talent identification to support Loft Orbital’s growing hiring needs on a six-month contract, with the possibility of extension. In this remote role, you’ll focus on proactively identifying, engaging, and building pipelines of highly specialized engineering talent for some of our most challenging positions. You’ll work closely with our recruiters and hiring managers to develop targeted sourcing strategies, map competitive talent markets, and connect with exceptional passive candidates across hardware engineering disciplines.
Must Haves:

• 3+ years of technical sourcing or recruiting experience, with a strong focus on hardware and engineering talent.

• Demonstrated expertise in proactive headhunting, including LinkedIn Recruiter, advanced Boolean search, talent mapping, and creative sourcing techniques to identify hard-to-find candidates.

• Experience sourcing technical talent across hardware engineering disciplines, including mechanical engineering, electrical/electronics, embedded systems, firmware, RF/wireless, systems engineering, and hardware test.

• Strong understanding of hardware engineering concepts and terminology, including CAD, PCB design, embedded systems, microcontrollers, FPGA, RF systems, and hardware verification and validation.

• Proven ability to identify and engage passive candidates for niche, highly specialized engineering positions.

• Experience conducting initial candidate outreach, generating interest, and evaluating basic technical alignment before handing candidates over to recruiters.

• Ability to independently develop sourcing strategies, identify target companies, and build talent pipelines for multiple technical requisitions.

• Strong research and market-mapping skills, with the ability to identify relevant companies, emerging talent pools, and competitive hiring markets.

• Ability to effectively pitch Loft’s mission, culture, and technical challenges to highly specialized, passive candidates.

• Collaborative mindset and ability to work closely with recruiters and hiring managers, providing sourcing insights, market intelligence, and candidate recommendations.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work independently in a remote environment.

Nice to Haves:

• Direct experience sourcing talent within the space, satellite, aerospace, defense, or adjacent complex hardware/deep-tech industries.

• Experience sourcing for specialized profiles such as avionics, GNC, RF engineering, PCB/board design, manufacturing engineering, or assembly, integration, and test (AI&T).

• Prior experience as a dedicated technical sourcer, research specialist, or sourcing partner within an in-house recruiting team or agency.

• Experience supporting high-volume sourcing initiatives or rapid engineering team expansion.

• Knowledge of US and European aerospace and hardware engineering talent ecosystems, including key companies, startups, and talent hubs.

• Familiarity with ITAR, EAR, and compliance considerations relevant to US-based space and defense hiring.

• Experience using sourcing analytics to track outreach effectiveness, candidate engagement, and pipeline conversion.

• Prior experience supporting startup or high-growth technical organizations.

*Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft, we value respectful debate and people who aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t check all the boxes.
