About this role

We're looking for an experienced and driven Senior Tech Talent Acquisition Specialist to join our Talent Acquisition team at DataSnipper. In this role, you'll be a key player in driving hiring across our Product and Engineering functions, working alongside fellow TA specialists to deliver a high-quality, candidate-centric recruitment experience.

You'll manage the full recruitment cycle across technical roles: from building targeted pipelines and screening candidates, to facilitating a smooth process and managing offer negotiations. You'll work closely with engineering and product hiring managers, building strong working relationships to ensure you deeply understand their needs. You'll bring focus and pace to a fast-moving environment, and you'll know how to use AI tools to work efficiently and at scale.

If you have a solid understanding of engineering talent, a strong network to tap into, and thrive in an environment where priorities evolve quickly and multiple hiring streams move in parallel. We'd love to talk!

About DataSnipper

Audit and finance are still massively manual — and we’re changing that. DataSnipper is a $1B, bootstrapped unicorn with 600,000+ users across 180+ countries, already embedded in the daily workflows of top audit and accounting firms.

Now, we’re taking things further with our Excel Agent — bringing AI directly into where the work actually happens. Unlike generic AI tools, we don’t sit on the sidelines. Our AI operates inside Excel, with access to real documents and audit evidence — meaning it doesn’t just generate answers, it does the work, with full traceability.

We’re not just applying AI — we’re redefining how audit gets done. If you want to build something category-defining at scale, this is the place.
