About us
Crest IT Resources is a US-based IT staffing and talent placement firm. We help US companies hire skilled software engineers, data professionals, and IT specialists across the Americas. We're building our Latam sourcing operation and looking for an experienced recruiter on the ground in Mexico to lead it.
Exclusive to Get on Board.
The role
You'll own end-to-end sourcing and recruiting for IT positions across Latin America — primarily software engineers, DevOps, data engineers, QA, and cloud roles. Your candidates will be placed with US client companies on remote contracts, paid in USD.
Day to day, you'll:
- Source IT talent across Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, and other Latam markets using LinkedIn Recruiter, Get on Board, GitHub, OCC Mundial, and other platforms
- Run Boolean searches in English, Spanish, and (ideally) Portuguese
- Conduct first-round screens covering experience, English level, and time zone fit
- Manage candidates through the pipeline: screen → technical assessment → client interview → offer
- Build relationships with engineers in Latam tech communities (Discord, Slack, meetups)
- Partner with our US team on requisitions, intake calls, and offer negotiation
- Track funnel metrics and report weekly on pipeline health
Who you are
- 3+ years of tech recruiting experience, ideally sourcing software engineers
- Fluent English (B2 minimum, C1 preferred) — you'll be on daily calls with US hiring managers
- Native or fully fluent Spanish; Portuguese a strong plus
- Hands-on experience with LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, and at least one ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workable, Bullhorn, etc.)
- Comfortable working independently in a remote, async environment
- Based in Mexico (CDMX, Guadalajara, Monterrey, or anywhere with reliable internet)
Nice to have
- Experience recruiting for US companies or nearshore staffing firms
- Knowledge of the Latam tech salary landscape across multiple countries
- Existing network in Mexican or Latam engineering communities
