About Pragmatike

Pragmatike is on a mission to help early-stage startups, and scaelups — win the talent war and build exceptional tech teams.

 
About the Role

We’re looking for a Founding Tech Recruiter to build out our team as we embark on our next phase of growth. Someone smart — connected to the tech world — that moves, operates fast and efficiently — a superstar, a pirate. You'll operate as a strategic partner in the heart of the startup ecosystem, pioneering how we find, attract, and engage the world’s best talent.

 
Why This Role Is Different
  • Shape the future of tech hiring: Engage directly with the startup and tech talent community, and become a visible advocate for Pragmatike.

  • Zero-to-one impact: Design the recruiting systems, processes, and standards from scratch, and partner with product and engineering to refine our hiring approach.

  • High leverage: Recruit across a variety of functions, from engineering to go-to-market, and see your impact on the business firsthand.

 
You’re a Fit If You…
  • Have 5+ years of experience recruiting for technical roles in-house or at a search agency

  • Are at ease in startup environments and thrive amid ambiguity, rapid iteration, and high growth

  • Communicate clearly—both written and verbally—and make every candidate feel valued

  • Are well-connected, respected by peers, and have a personal brand in the recruiting community (e.g., active LinkedIn, trusted network)

  • Care deeply about quality, processes, and candidate experience

  • Are excited to work flexibly—this role is fully remote and freelance-friendly

 
Nice to Have
  • Previous experience recruiting at early-stage startups or high-growth tech companies

  • Familiarity with AI, SaaS, or B2B talent markets

  • Enjoy writing or speaking about recruiting, talent, or startup culture

 
Compensation & Benefits
  • Flexible freelance contract with autonomy

  • Direct impact on company growth and culture

  • Opportunity to be Pragmatike’s first recruiter and shape our future

  • Fully remote work environment and flexible hours

  • Direct partnership with founders

What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene

Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
