Freelance Technical Recruiter & POC

Sharp Brains
Miami, FL Contractor
POSTED ON 6/24/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/22/2026

⚡ The Core Mandate

We are not a traditional staffing agency—we are a turn-key engineering solutions provider deploying elite Data Center and Network Engineering teams into Fortune 500 clients across the US.

We need a US-based technical POC who will do more than just source resumes. You will be the "Guardian of our Engineering Talent"—responsible for the full lifecycle:

Recruit → Onboard → Deploy → Travel to site → Manage performance → Retain.

You will be the primary bridge between our remote HQ, our client's leadership in the US, and the network engineers we place on the ground.

🎯 Key Responsibilities

1. Strategic Recruitment (Hardware/Network Focus)

  • Source and close elite Network Engineers, Data Center Architects, Optical Engineers, and NOC Leads across the US.
  • Vet candidates for deep technical proficiency (BGP, OSPF, MPLS, Cisco NX-OS, Juniper, Arista, DWDM).
  • Build a proprietary, travel-friendly talent pipeline so you can rapidly deploy engineers to client sites nationwide.

2. On-Site Travel & Engineering Management (Crucial New Duty)

  • Travel domestically (30%-40%) to client colocation facilities, data centers, and corporate offices (e.g., Ashburn/VA, NYC/NJ, Dallas/TX, Santa Clara/CA, and Chicago/IL) to conduct on-the-ground check-ins with deployed engineers.
  • Act as the on-site escalation point: When a deployed engineer faces a technical roadblock, interpersonal conflict with the client's staff, or a scope-of-work misunderstanding, you are the neutral problem-solver who shows up in person to mediate.
  • Oversee the quality of work: Validate that our deployed teams are meeting SLAs for network uptime, rack deployments, and hardware refreshes. Gather 360-degree performance feedback from both the client-side management and our engineers.

3. Client Account POC

  • Work as out POC with our US Clients



✅ Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

  • Must be a US Citizen or Green Card holder. English (both written and spoken) is required for high-stakes client boardroom conversations.
  • Location & Mobility: Must be based in the Greater Miami area (easy access to MIA/FLL airports). Must possess a valid US passport/ID and be able to travel domestically
  • Deep Technical Recruiting Background: Minimum 7 years of combined technical recruiting AND talent management experience specifically in Network Engineering & Data Center Operations across the US market.
  • People Management Experience: You must have direct experience managing, mentoring, or supervising technical staff (either as an agency lead, internal HRBP, or ex-military NCO). You know how to handle difficult performance conversations.
  • Hardware Literacy: You must speak "network". You can intelligently discuss Cisco ASR/Nexus, Arista 7000s, Juniper MX series, DWDM optics, and low-latency trading infrastructure fluently.
  • Crisis Management: You are unflappable. When an engineer quits with 1-week notice at a client site, you can step in, manage the client's expectations, and source a backfill immediately.

⭐ Highly Desirable (Bonus Points)

  • Bilingual (English/Spanish): Huge advantage, as many US data centers have dual-language engineering teams and Miami is your home base.
  • Existing relationships with hiring managers at major US telecoms, CDNs, financial exchanges, or hyperscalers (AWS, Equinix, Digital Realty).
  • Experience managing consultants across multiple US time zones.
