Talent Acquisition Lead (Team Lead, Startup and Senior level Tech and Leadership Hiring Experience Required)
Experience: 10-15 Years (Not below 10 years and not more than 15 years)
Location: Nirvana Country, Sector 50, Gurgaon
Annual CTC: Upto 25 LPA (Fixed + Variable)
About This Role
This role is for the person who owns the full TA process: structures it, runs it, and delivers at pace. This is
a builder role, not an executor role. TA function needs to be re-build from scratch with fresh
thinking, configure & implement processes around ATS, standardize JD templates, structured
scorecards, or defined SLAs.
The Senior TA Lead will build all of these while simultaneously running active searches. In the end, this is not just a sourcing role. Sourcing is one part of your work — you own the full process and the outcomes. You will hire and design the recruitment team & processes while running active searches simultaneously. This is not a low-intensity role thus hiring pace is critical to business outcomes.
Primary Mandate
• Own end-to-end hiring process: JD creation, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer management, pre-joining communication
• Own data hygiene, pipeline visibility, stage conversion reporting via ATS
• Build and maintain structured interview processes: standardize scorecards, defined panel roles, 24-hour feedback SLA
• Manage all sourcing channels: LinkedIn Recruiter, Naukri, employee referrals, campus, specialist
communities for tech roles
• Own hiring SLAs and report weekly: time-to-offer, offer acceptance rate, source mix, pipeline
health per role
• Partner with hiring managers on JD design, interview calibration, and offer structuring
• Partner with external vendors, job portals, and industry networks to attract the best talent.
• Rework & design JD template library covering all major role families (tech, product,
implementation, support, finance, HR)
• Build standardised interview scorecard templates for each role family
• Establish and maintain vendor relationships: job boards, headhunters, background verification
• Design and execute employer branding on platforms like LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Abmitionbox and
tech community platforms
• Manage TA Executive and TA Consultant — allocate mandates, track closure rates, coach on
quality
• Define clear KPIs for the TA team: mandates handled, time-to-offer, pipeline quality, offer
acceptance
• Provide weekly pipeline updates to CEO / Designated RM — no mandate should go cold or
untracked
Non-Negotiable Requirements
- Startup Experience – Has worked in an early to growth stage startup, have built TA department, hired talent to grow company's headcount and has seen company and headcount growing
- 10-15 years in TA, with 3+ years leading full-cycle hiring – Has personally owned the hiring process from JD to joining — not just sourced candidates. Has managed the interview calendar, vendor hiring relationships, and offer conversations.
- Tech/product hiring – Has hired software engineers, product managers, implementation leads, or experience. Understands the difference between a full-stack role and a backend role, can read a JD written by an engineering manager, and has sourced from tech communities not just job boards.
- Job Stability: Should have good employment stability for 2-3 years minimum in previous organizations and has not switched jobs every 2 years. Applicants having job stability for 4-5+ years in an organization are preferred.
- ATS implementation or significant configuration experience – Has set up an ATS from scratch or significantly configured one (Keka, DarwinBox, Greenhouse, Freshteam, or similar) — not just used it as a recruiter. Can make vendor selection recommendations.
- Metrics-driven approach – Tracks and reports time-to-offer, source mix, offer acceptance rate, and pipeline conversion as standard practice — not ad hoc. Can build a hiring dashboard on Day 1,
- Experience in SaaS or product-tech companies – Understands the talent market for tech roles, knows which sourcing channels work for engineers vs. product managers, and can build an employer brand that resonates with technical candidates.

• Experience hiring in a company that went through rapid headcount scale (say 50→300 in past 2-3

• Prior experience building campus hiring programme at engineering colleges or IIT/NIT tier
• Employer branding ownership — LinkedIn content, Glassdoor management, tech community
