Lead strategic sourcing for retained searches using OSINT and agentic AI to uncover passive, hard-to-find candidates. Map industries, deploy autonomous sourcing agents, extract verified contact data, perform forensic analysis, and provide market insights to recruiting teams while maintaining strict confidentiality and data integrity.
Location: 100% REMOTE (US-Based Applicants Only)
Firm Profile: A high-performance, 100% Retained Search firm utilizing a bleeding-edge AI and OSINT technology stack.
The Mission
Our firm does not "find candidates" .We conduct deep-web investigations to identify the most elusive talent for mission-critical roles. We specialize in industries where the best candidates are not on LinkedIn and do not have a social media presence. As a Strategic Sourcing Lead, you will act as a digital detective, utilizing agentic
AI and forensic logic to find the mobile numbers and personal emails of the top 1% of candidates. This is 100% retained work; we provide our clients with certainty, not volume.
Core Outcome:
- Industry Deep-Mapping: You will break down the organizational structures of firms in 10 specialized, non-social industries to identify high-performing passive talent.
- AI Agent Orchestration: You will deploy and refine autonomous sourcing agents (Juicebox, Exa, Pin) using natural language to scan the web 24/7.
- Contact Extraction & Enrichment: You will leverage advanced OSINT tools to uncover verified mobile numbers and personal emails, bypassing the noise of traditional job boards.
- Cognitive Analysis: You will use inductive and deductive reasoning to bridge gaps in data, ensuring that every candidate presented is a perfect cultural and technical fit.
- Strategic Client Partnership: You will provide data-driven insights and market trends to our recruiting teams, helping to align sourcing strategies with long-term workforce planning.
Required Expertise
- Sourcing Experience: 5+ years in senior-level sourcing, preferably within a retained search environment.
- Technical Stack: Mastery of OSINT tools (Holehe, OSINT Industries), AI sourcing platforms (ZoomInfo, SeekOut), and semantic CRMs (Crelate).
- Forensic Logic: Exceptional ability to analyze complex data, identify patterns, and draw logical conclusions from multifaceted sources.
- US Professionalism: This is a US-only remote role. You must be able to operate autonomously in a distributed environment, maintaining high standards of async documentation and data integrity.
Attributes of the "Top 1% "Candidate
- Investigative Spirit: You are not satisfied with a LinkedIn profile. You keep digging until you find the person nobody else can find.
- Industry Voracity: You take pride in becoming an expert in our clients' businesses, understanding their market dynamics and competitive landscape.
- Ethical Integrity: You handle sensitive data with the highest degree of confidentiality and adhere to all legal standards for candidate engagement.

With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
