TL;DR · Production Recruiting Lead

CW Production Recruiting Lead serves as the single-threaded owner for all production, manufacturing, and supply chain hiring outcomes within the Connected Warfare division. This role functions as a player-coach and strategic program manager, balancing high-level strategy with hands-on execution. You will manage end-to-end hiring cycles for critical leadership and technical roles while coordinating the activities of a centralized recruiting team. Key responsibilities include headcount planning, demand forecasting, and providing data-driven reporting on pipeline velocity to senior stakeholders. The role requires expertise in full-cycle recruitment, program management, and cross-functional collaboration with Finance and BizOps teams. Candidates must possess strong analytical skills and experience navigating complex manufacturing or robotics environments. You will solve critical alignment gaps by bridging the gap between centralized recruiting operations and specific divisional needs to ensure the successful delivery of defense technology systems.

What you'll do

  • Own end-to-end production hiring outcomes including headcount planning, demand forecasting, and requisition prioritization for the CW division.
  • Act as a strategic talent partner to senior leadership by translating business objectives into actionable hiring strategies.
  • Provide regular reporting on pipeline velocity, capacity constraints, and risk mitigation to divisional stakeholders.
  • Execute full-cycle recruiting for high-priority roles including leadership, senior technical, and complex "single-point-of-failure" positions.
  • Align the daily priorities of the centralized production recruiting team to ensure focus on high-impact hiring needs.
  • Provide coaching, real-time feedback, and quality assurance to recruiters working on division-specific roles.
  • Manage the operational rhythm for the portfolio, including intake meetings, pipeline reviews, and cross-functional coordination.
  • Serve as the primary escalation point for hiring blockers, process breakdowns, or stakeholder misalignment within the division.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 8+ years of talent acquisition experience in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.
  • Must have significant recent experience as a full-cycle production or technical recruiter.
  • Proven ability to operate independently while managing complex hiring portfolios and ambiguous situations.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence and advise Director-level and above stakeholders on hiring strategies.
  • Demonstrated program management capability to lead initiatives beyond individual requisitions and coordinate cross-functional teams.
  • Excellent analytical skills to use data for decision-making and present hiring health narratives to leadership.
  • Ability to provide direction and feedback to peers in a matrixed environment without formal management authority.
