Sr. Manager, Talent Acquisition - EPD

MaintainX is the world's leading AI-powered maintenance and asset management platform, serving 13,000+ customers including Duracell, Shell, Cintas, and Brenntag. We raised $150M in Series D funding led by Bessemer Venture Partners and Bain Capital Ventures, bringing our total funding to $254M. We were named to the Forbes 2025 Cloud 100, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world.

We're growing fast and building the talent leadership layer to match.

The role

We're looking for a Sr. Manager, Talent for Engineering, Product, and Design to lead the recruiting function that builds the team behind our platform. This is a manager-of-managers role — you'll lead a team of Talent Partners and Coordinators, set the EPD hiring strategy with our engineering and product leaders, and own the function's outcomes. You will not carry a personal req load. Your job is to make every recruiter on your team great, every search predictable, and every hiring manager partnership tight.

You’ll report directly to the VP Talent and partner closely with our CTO and our VPs of Engineering, Product, and Design to deliver against an EPD hiring plan that includes some of our most competitive senior technical roles.

What you’ll do

• Lead the EPD talent team. Manage a team of Talent Partners (manager-track and IC) and partner closely with Talent Coordinators. Hire, coach, and level up the team. Run a development cadence that turns strong ICs into senior recruiters.
• Own the EPD hiring plan. Translate EPD’s hiring goals into a sourcing strategy, capacity plan, and weekly pipeline. Allocate reqs across the team based on workload and skill. Reforecast when the plan changes — and it will.
• Run the operating cadence with EPD leadership. Stand up weekly pipeline reviews with engineering, product, and design leaders. Deliver clean dashboards on funnel health, time-to-fill, and offer acceptance rate. Surface bottlenecks early and own the fix.
• Drive interview quality and bar discipline. Own the structure and consistency of multi-stage technical loops — coding (CodeSignal), system design, take-home challenges, and exec panels. Calibrate interviewers, enforce scorecard discipline, run the debrief standard. When the bar slips, you call it.
• Build pipelines for the hardest roles. Partner with your team to develop talent maps across AI/ML, platform, infrastructure, and senior engineering leadership. You don’t carry reqs, but you know every active candidate at the staff and principal level — and you step in to close when leverage is needed.
• Own your numbers. This team runs on data. You’ll own team-level and function-level metrics: time-to-fill, offer acceptance rate, sourcing response rates, screen-to-onsite conversion, and recruiter productivity. You’ll be measured on outcomes, not activity.

What you bring

• 8+ years in technical recruiting, with at least 3 years leading a team of recruiters at a high-growth SaaS or infrastructure company.
• Demonstrated track record of building EPD pipelines that close senior and staff-level engineers in competitive markets (SF, Toronto, Montreal are our primary markets).
• Operator's instincts. You can pull your own pipeline reports, design a capacity model, and forecast hires by quarter without a separate ops partner.
• Experience scaling structured interview processes — calibrated scorecards, debrief discipline, interviewer training.
• Comfort with modern ATS platforms (Ashby strongly preferred, Greenhouse / Lever acceptable).
• A strong preference for candidates who have led teams recruiting for AI/ML, platform engineering, or developer tools.
• A point of view on how to partner with senior engineering and product leaders without being subservient to them. You can push back when the bar slips.

What's In It For You:

• Competitive salary and meaningful equity opportunities await you!
• Comprehensive healthcare, dental, and vision coverage to keep you healthy!
• 401(k) / RRSP enrolment program to secure your future!
• Enjoy a generous PTO policy — take what you need!
• A vibrant work culture where:

  • We celebrate meritocracy, where your ideas and efforts are recognized and rewarded!
