About This Role

The Talent Acquisition Specialist at Armory is an execution-heavy, high-ownership role. You will run hiring end-to-end across every vertical we hire for, engineering (Hardware & Software), operations & manufacturing (Production), corporate (Finance, BD), Founders Office, and more.

You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with the HR team, founders, and technical interviewers. You are not a coordinator. You will source, screen, drive interview loops, push candidates to closure, and protect Armorys hiring bar like it is your own.

This is the role where you stop being a recruiter who manages requisitions and start being one who actually builds a company that further builds on excellent things for the nation.

Must Have

- 25 years of hands-on, end-to-end recruitment experience (sourcing through offer)
- Experience hiring across multiple function types, at least two of: engineering, manufacturing/operations, corporate (finance/BD), or leadership roles
- Strong sourcing chops: LinkedIn Recruiter, Naukri, GitHub, niche communities, referrals, Boolean search; you can find candidates others cant
- Demonstrated ability to screen for depth, not just keywords; you can tell a real engineer from a polisher with jargon in a 20-minute call
- Clean, direct, written, and spoken communication is crucial
- Ownership of your funnel metrics - you know your conversion rates from sourced screened offered joined, and you actively work to improve them
- Comfort with ambiguity - JDs evolve, priorities shift, and you adapt without losing momentum. Sometimes you may even create a JD post, interviewing a candidate you did not think there was an opening for.

Bonus Points For
- Hiring experience in defence, aerospace, hardware, deep-tech, or manufacturing-led organisations
- Experience hiring for niche technical roles (FPGA, RF, embedded firmware, DSP)
- Exposure to early-stage startup hiring




- Familiarity with ATS tools, structured interview scorecards, and data-driven recruitment
- A track record of closing senior or hard-to-fill roles within tight timelines

What Will Make You Successful in This Role
- You are a driver, not a passenger - you move candidates and roles forward without being chased
- You hunt; you do not wait for inbound. Most of your best hires will come from sourcing, not from a job board
- You are deeply mindful of who you put in front of the interview panel - every weak resume forwarded wastes the teams time and lowers the bar
- You communicate like a professional adult with high-stakes ownership
- You act today, not tomorrow; a candidate not contacted in 24 hours is a candidate already lost to someone else
- You protect Armorys hiring bar even when the pressure is to fill seats and be very selective with who you hire; a wrong hire costs more than an open seat
- You respond to every single candidate on a timely basis

How Will We Set You Up for Success
- Live Hiring: You will own real, open, mission-critical roles from day one. Minimal shadowing, no training projects.
- Access to Tools: Access to LinkedIn, premium job boards, ATS, and any sourcing tool you can justify
- Access to Decision-Makers: Direct line to the HR Lead, founders, and hiring managers, no gatekeepers, no email chains to nowhere
- Supportive Team: You will be surrounded by interviewers and leaders who genuinely care about hiring well
- A leadership team: An A-level leadership that values judgement over process theatrics
- Working Vibe: A high-ownership culture that prioritises speed, honesty, and outcomes over optics, politics, or performative processes.
