Job Description:

We are looking for a Sr. Recruiter who is passionate about connecting great people with meaningful work. In this role, you will own full-cycle recruiting across a wide range of disciplines — Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Finance, Operations, and more — partnering closely with hiring managers to attract exceptional talent at every level, from early-career contributors to senior executives.

You will bring a consultative, relationship-driven approach to every search, serving as a trusted partner to the business while ensuring every candidate has an exceptional experience with Lattice.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Full-Cycle Recruiting

  • Own end-to-end recruiting for a diverse portfolio of open roles spanning Engineering (hardware, software, firmware, verification), Sales, Marketing, Finance, Legal, and Operations
  • Partner with hiring managers from intake through offer acceptance, ensuring alignment on requirements, timelines, and candidate expectations at every step
  • Conduct thorough candidate screens to assess both technical fit and cultural alignment, delivering a shortlist of well-qualified candidates with clear, actionable feedback
  • Prepare candidates thoroughly for each interview stage — providing context on the role, team, and Lattice culture to set them up for success
  • Craft and extend competitive offers in collaboration with HR and Total Rewards, and guide candidates through the negotiation and acceptance process
  • Manage multiple requisitions simultaneously across varying levels and functions, maintaining quality, responsiveness, and attention to detail throughout
  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date records in the ATS, ensuring requisition status, candidate stages, and disposition notes are current at all times

Sourcing & Pipeline Building

  • Develop and execute creative, multi-channel sourcing strategies to identify and engage passive talent — beyond the active applicant pool
  • Leverage LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, job boards, employee referrals, industry events, and direct outreach to build robust, diverse candidate pipelines
  • Proactively build talent pipelines for recurring or anticipated needs, so Lattice is never starting from zero on a critical hire
  • Research target companies, talent communities, and professional networks relevant to each discipline to sharpen sourcing focus
  • Track sourcing channel effectiveness and adjust strategies based on what is producing the best results

Stakeholder Partnership

  • Lead structured intake meetings with hiring managers to define the ideal candidate profile, agree on interview process, and set expectations on timeline and market realities
  • Act as a trusted advisor to hiring managers and cross-functional partners — providing candid, data-backed guidance on candidate quality, compensation, and market conditions
  • Communicate proactively with all stakeholders, providing regular pipeline updates, market feedback, and recommendations to keep searches moving forward
  • Coach interview panels on structured, consistent interviewing techniques and inclusive hiring practices to improve both the quality and fairness of hiring decisions
  • Facilitate debrief sessions and calibration conversations to ensure timely, well-reasoned hiring decisions

Candidate Experience

  • Deliver a thoughtful, respectful candidate experience at every touchpoint — from first outreach to final decision — that reflects Lattice's values and employer brand
  • Communicate clearly and promptly with all candidates, ensuring no one is left without a status update or feedback for an unreasonable amount of time
  • Gather candidate feedback on the interview experience and surface insights that can improve the process over time
  • Serve as a knowledgeable, enthusiastic ambassador for Lattice — effectively communicating our mission, products, culture, and growth opportunities to prospective hires

Talent Strategy & Market Intelligence

  • Stay current on talent market trends, compensation benchmarks, and competitor hiring activity relevant to Lattice's key disciplines
  • Use data and market insights to advise hiring managers on realistic expectations, timeline adjustments, and compensation positioning
  • Track and analyze key recruiting metrics — time-to-fill, source of hire, offer acceptance rate, and pipeline diversity — and use them to continuously improve outcomes

WHAT YOU BRING

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally spanning both technical and non-technical roles
  • Demonstrated success recruiting across multiple disciplines and levels, from entry-level individual contributors to senior executives
  • Experience in the semiconductor, hardware, or adjacent technology industry — or a comparable complex, engineering-driven environment
  • Proven ability to manage a high-volume requisition load while maintaining quality, candidate experience, and stakeholder responsiveness
  • Strong sourcing skills and a track record of engaging and converting passive talent
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams — including HR, Finance, Legal, Compensation, and business leadership — to drive aligned, efficient hiring outcomes
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; comfortable providing candid, data-backed guidance to hiring managers at all levels
  • Proficiency with ATS platforms (Workday preferred) and sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, etc.)
  • Strong data orientation — ability to use recruiting metrics to diagnose issues and improve results
  • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, Psychology, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience recruiting for FPGA, semiconductor, or embedded systems engineering roles
  • Familiarity with global recruiting across APAC and EMEA markets
  • Knowledge of compensation structures, equity, and total rewards for technical and commercial roles
  • HR, recruiting, or talent management certifications (SHRM, PHR, LinkedIn Learning, etc.)
