Aurelius is the autonomous directed energy company.
We are a group of engineers, operators, and company patriots building American-made, laser-based, counter-UAS defense systems that neutralize aerial threats.
We're a small team that designs in San Francisco, manufactures in Detroit, and field tests Archimedes, our fiber-laser counter-UAS system, weekly on our own 400-acre private range.
As a Technical Sourcer, you are the engine of our top-of-funnel strategy, driving initial engagement and attracting potential candidates for the company’s most critical and hard-to-fill positions.
Collaborating with the Head of Talent and Hiring Managers, you’ll map the talent market and identify passive candidates in technical fields. You will research and engage candidates, translate technical requirements into targeted outreach, maintain strong pipelines, and use personalized messages and regular collaboration with hiring teams to ensure talent density.
You are smart, relentless, and fluent enough with technical work to reach engineers credibly. You do not need a recruiter title.
Evidence you can run outreach, campaigns, and market mapping, and that you build your own tooling or agents when the manual path is too slow
3 to 5 years of high-output work, in recruiting, engineering, sales or similar
U.S. citizenship (required for export control).
Priority deliverables in the first 6 months:
Pipeline Generation: Partner with recruiters and engineering leaders to define ideal candidate profiles, search strategies, and market-mapping priorities.
Outbound Sourcing: Utilize advanced sourcing channels (Boolean search, GitHub, Stack Overflow, LinkedIn Recruiter, and AI tools like SeekOut, HeyReach, Clay) to find passive technical talent.
Initial Engagement: Craft personalized, high-response-rate outreach messages and conduct initial pre-screens to assess technical alignment, motivation, and interest.
Data & Tracking: Maintain clean, up-to-date candidate data in our Applicant Tracking System (ATS), tracking conversion metrics and sourcing funnel health.
Market Intelligence: Provide regular feedback to engineering teams regarding talent availability, market compensation trends, and competitive positioning

At Aurelius we work what we call, 5+X. Our core operating hours are 5 days a week, Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm Pacific Time.
The X is the honest acknowledgment that hard work sometimes takes more. For engineering, that means late nights and weekends during sprints and ramp-up periods.
For growth, ops, and support, it means conferences, deployments, and events when the mission calls for it.
This role is onsite 5 days a week in San Francisco.
At Aurelius Systems, we invest in our people. Our comprehensive, competitive benefits package is available at little to no cost to employees and supports health, recovery, and whatever comes next. Explore Our Benefits.
