About Snorkel
At Snorkel, we believe meaningful AI doesn’t start with the model, it starts with the data.
We’re on a mission to help enterprises transform expert knowledge into specialized AI at scale. The AI landscape has gone through incredible changes since 2015, when Snorkel started as a research project in the Stanford AI Lab, to the generative AI breakthroughs of today. But one thing has remained constant: the data you use to build AI is the key to achieving differentiation, high performance, and production-ready systems. We work with some of the world’s largest organizations to empower scientists, engineers, financial experts, product creators, journalists, and more to build custom AI with their data faster than ever before. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler!
Snorkel AI is looking for a Director of Talent Sourcing — Data as a Service to build and lead the sourcing function responsible for identifying, engaging, and securing Domain Expert Contributors who support our DaaS business.
This is a critical leadership role at the intersection of talent acquisition, marketplace supply, and business operations. You will lead a team of recruiters and sourcers focused on finding highly specialized contributors across a wide range of expert domains. These may include technical, scientific, industry-specific, functional, language, data, and other hard-to-find areas of expertise needed to deliver high-quality outcomes for our customers.
We are looking for someone who has built and led talent sourcing teams in complex, high-velocity environments. The ideal candidate brings deep experience in direct sourcing strategy, talent mapping, sourcing systems, tools, process design, team leadership, and operational rigor.

This role will partner closely with our DaaS Supply team, which owns the overall Expert Contributor supply strategy. Internal talent sourcing is one of the primary levers in that strategy, and this leader will be responsible for building the team, systems, and sourcing engine required to support DaaS growth.
