Job Description: Talent Acquisition Specialist
(Cybersecurity Platform)
Location: Based in Bengaluru, India, hiring for our India & US offices | Full-time
About the Team
SecurITe’s mission is to build an Agentic-AI driven security platform that protects critical
infrastructure from modern cyber threats. Our focus is on delivering highly performant, resilient,
and intelligent network security systems that help defenders stay ahead of adversaries.
About the Role
We’re looking for an exceptional Talent Acquisition Specialist to own end-to-end hiring for
SecurITe as we scale our next-generation agentic-AI cybersecurity platform. You’ll be based in
India and will lead full-cycle recruiting across both our India and US offices, partnering directly
with our founders and engineering leaders to build a world-class team of engineers,
researchers, and go-to-market talent in both geographies.
This is a foundational hire: you won’t just fill open roles, you’ll build the recruiting engine,
employer brand, and hiring processes that scale with us across two very different talent
markets.
Why This Role Matters
Cybersecurity is undergoing a fundamental shift. AI is no longer an enhancement—it’s
becoming the core engine of how detection, investigation, and response are executed. As our
Talent Acquisition Specialist, you will build the pipelines, processes, and candidate experience
that bring in the engineers, researchers, and operators who build these systems. Your work will
directly determine the caliber of team that shapes the future of AI-driven security, across both
our India and US offices. This is a chance to build a hiring function from the ground up while
helping an entire industry attract the talent it needs to outpace modern attackers.
What You’ll Do
• Own full-cycle recruiting for both India and US offices — sourcing, screening, interview
coordination, offer negotiation, and closing — across engineering, AI/ML, security research,
product, and GTM roles.
• Partner with hiring managers and founders to define role scorecards, interview loops, and
hiring bars for each function and each geography.
• Build and manage talent pipelines across India and the US, understanding local market
dynamics, compensation benchmarks, and candidate expectations in each market.
• Source proactively through LinkedIn Recruiter, niche AI/security communities, referrals, and
university or bootcamp partnerships in both countries.
• Own the candidate experience end-to-end, ensuring a fast, high-touch process that reflects
a top-tier AI security company.
• Maintain ATS hygiene and hiring metrics (time-to-fill, pipeline conversion, source
effectiveness) and report on hiring progress to leadership.
• Structure and negotiate offers in partnership with founders/finance, including equity and, for
US roles, visa or relocation considerations.
• Navigate India- and US-specific employment nuances — offer letters, background checks,
visa sponsorship (e.g., H-1B) where relevant, and statutory compliance — in partnership
with legal and finance.
• Build SecurITe’s early-stage employer brand: careers page content, job postings, LinkedIn
presence, and community/conference engagement to attract AI and security talent.
• Stand up scalable recruiting processes, tooling (ATS, sourcing tools), and playbooks that
support hiring across both offices as headcount grows.
Impact You’ll Have
• Directly shape the team that builds SecurITe’s platform — every hire you close changes the
trajectory of the company.
• Build the hiring engine and playbooks that scale hiring beyond your own individual sourcing
efforts.
• Establish SecurITe’s employer brand in two competitive talent markets: Indian tech/security
talent and US AI/security talent.
• Become a trusted partner to founders on org design, headcount planning,
and hiring
strategy as the company scales across geographies.
Required Experience
• 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including at least 2+ years recruiting for both
India- and US-based roles.
• Proven track record hiring technical talent (software engineers, ML/AI engineers, or security
engineers) at a startup or high-growth technology company.
• Experience recruiting across multiple functions simultaneously (engineering, GTM,
operations).
• Experience working directly with founders or senior executives on hiring strategy and
headcount planning.
Required Skills & Qualifications
• Strong sourcing skills — LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, and creative sourcing
channels for hard-to-fill technical and security roles.
• Hands-on experience with ATS platforms (e.g., Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby) and building
recruiting dashboards/metrics.
• Excellent stakeholder management — comfortable running hiring conversations directly with
founders, engineering leads, and candidates at all levels.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, high ownership, and comfort operating with
minimal process in a rapid-moving startup.
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
Nice to Have
• Working knowledge of India and US employment and immigration basics (offer structuring,
visa sponsorship such as H-1B/L-1, background verification, statutory compliance), or a
proven ability to partner effectively with legal/immigration counsel. (We prioritize US
candidates who don't require sponsorship, but this knowledge is valuable to have.)
• Prior recruiting experience in cybersecurity, AI/ML, or infrastructure/platform companies.
• Experience building an HR or recruiting function from the ground up at an early-stage
startup.
• Familiarity with equity compensation structures for both Indian and US employees.
• Experience setting up or scaling recruiting operations across multiple countries or legal
entities.
