🇫🇷 Avez-vous déjà géré de bout en bout le recrutement dans le domaine des logiciels et des technologies au sein d'une entreprise internationale spécialisée dans le SaaS ou les logiciels ? Avez-vous la volonté de créer quelque chose qui va au-delà d'une simple « énième entreprise de logiciels » ?

Si ce profil vous correspond et que vous êtes animé(e) par un sens profond de votre mission, rejoignez l'équipe de recrutement de SOPHiA GENETICS en tant que nouveau/nouvelle partenaire de recrutement technique et aidez-nous à avoir un impact positif sur la prise en charge des patients atteints de cancer et de maladies rares à travers le monde.

Enjoy the flexibility of a hybrid work schedule allowing 2 days per week home working, collaborating closely with our colleagues in our Bidart corporate office (close proximity to Biarritz). We welcome candidates with an active desire to relocate to the Nouvelle-Aquitaine or Pays-Basque region.

Our mission

We believe there is a smarter, more data-driven way to make decisions in healthcare and our cloud-native AI powered SOPHiA DDM Platform makes that vision a reality on a daily basis. You will have direct input to our mission to democratize data-driven medicine for the ultimate benefit of cancer and rare disease patients across the globe.

Your mission

Reporting to the Director, HR Enablement, you will be part of our global talent acquisition team, managing full-cycle recruiting & hiring on an international basis, across Europe and North America. You will predominantly support our Technology function but will also support technical and scientific hires across our full business.

What you’ll achieve:

• You'll have full responsibility for the end-to-end hiring journey, including hiring manager partnerships, candidate sourcing & engagement and recruiting administration

• Supporting headcount in 28 countries, you will have the opportunity to be responsible for hires on a global basis and see direct impact to our ongoing growth by finding the best in-market talent

• Drive positive impact, including direct sourcing channels, improving candidate engagement and decreasing time to hire

• Bring your passion to support the continuous improvement and sophistication of our TA agenda including Candidate Experience, ED&I, EVP & Employer Brand

Requirements

We know that every background is different, but to be best set for success we see you bringing:

• 3-6 years experience in an internal Talent Acquisition function, with previous successful experience recruiting for Technology positions
• Industry experience within international SaaS / Software organisations, or Healthcare / Life Science environments
• You’ll have end-to-end experience owning hires across Technology functions, but be comfortable supporting wider Research and Development functions and managing 10-20 REQs autonomously
• Experience of directly sourcing for positions requiring exposure to (as an example): Front-End, Back-End & Full-Stack Technologies / Frameworks; Databases such as MySQL, MariaDB, and DuckDB; Linux environments; AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, ChatGPT, JetBrains AI, etc.); Cloud-native environments e.g Azure, including containerized workloads (AKS or Kubernetes)  
• Experience with international hiring is beneficial, but this can be a supported growth area
• A passion to see talent acquisition as a strategic and value-add function, reinforced with positive, innovative energy
• Experience exclusively from an external/agency environment may be considered, if you bring exposure to international Software/Technology hiring
• Due to the technically focused nature of this role, this opportunity is unlikely to suit someone coming from a broader HR Generalist background

As an international organisation, English is our primary business language and you will need to bring full fluency in English. As part of your recruitment journey, you should expect to meet English-only speakers, so for best chances of success, you should include your CV in English. Non-English CVs have a high likelihood of being rejected at application stage.
