About Andrenam
We’re building sonar and sensing systems that bring light to the last dark domain: the ocean. Our team includes alumni from SpaceX, Anduril, ABL, Palantir and Qualia. We build full-stack-from physics to perception to product-with speed, elegance, and an unwavering commitment to the mission.
We believe the maritime domain will define the next century of economics, geopolitics, and global security. We're here to shape it.
About this role
Andrenam is growing fast, and we're looking for a Technical Sourcer to join as the second member of our Talent team. You'll own top-of-funnel pipeline generation for some of our hardest-to-fill technical roles, partnering closely with the Talent Lead and hiring managers. The ideal candidate is proactive, resourceful, and loves the hunt for exceptional talent - someone who wants to help build our sourcing function and pipeline strategy from the ground up.
This role is hybrid, based out of our Torrance office (expected 2-3 days per week in office).
In this role, you will:
- Own outbound sourcing for select hardware, software, AI/ML, and technical roles - building talent maps, target company lists, and search strategies from scratch
- Take on complex, cross-disciplinary searches where the right candidate doesn't always come from an obvious title or company, and build the approach that gets you there
- Run creative, high-signal outreach (boolean/x-ray search, events, referrals, niche communities) to reach passive candidates in narrow, hard-to-find talent pools
- Partner with the Talent Lead and hiring managers to sharpen target candidate profiles before and during a search
- Conduct initial candidate outreach and light qualification before handing warm pipeline to the recruiter/hiring manager
- Partner with the Talent Lead and team on employer brand - help build out messaging, campaigns, and other ways we show up externally, and translate that into sharper outbound and sourcing messaging
- Track and report on top-of-funnel metrics (response rates, pipeline volume, source effectiveness) to keep sourcing strategy sharp
- Maintain ATS hygiene for every candidate you touch
- Represent Andrenam with clarity and credibility in every first touchpoint with a candidate
What we’re looking for:
- 3-5 years of sourcing experience with a tech focus (GTM or business sourcing exposure is a plus, not required)
- Direct experience sourcing for defense, aerospace, hardware, or robotics roles - or closely adjacent deep-tech
- Prior experience at an early-stage startup (Series B or earlier), comfortable building process from scratch with minimal recruiting infrastructure
- Strong track record generating pipeline for hard-to-fill or niche technical searches
- Fluent with sourcing tools and creative channels beyond job boards and inbound applicants
- Highly organized and self-directed; thrives in fast-moving, low-structure environments
- Motivated by mission and able to connect with candidates beyond just comp and perks
