What the job involves

- We're looking for a Director of Talent Acquisition to build, lead, and scale our recruiting function

- This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll manage and grow a team of Talent Partners, own our end-to-end hiring strategy, and bring the process discipline needed to hire efficiently and predictably as we grow across the organization

- You'll partner closely with leadership and hiring managers to translate business goals into hiring plans, while building the systems, metrics, and playbooks that make recruiting a repeatable, scalable function rather than a series of one-off efforts

- Hire, coach, and develop a team of Talent Partners; set clear goals, provide regular feedback, and build a strong bench as headcount needs grow

- Design and execute a talent acquisition strategy aligned with company growth plans, hiring forecasts, and workforce planning

- Establish scalable,



repeatable recruiting processes — from intake and sourcing through offer and close — including standardized interview kits, scorecards, and hiring manager training

- Own recruiting KPIs (time-to-fill, pipeline conversion, source of hire, offer-accept rate, cost-per-hire) and use data to improve process and forecast hiring needs

- Act as a strategic advisor to executives and hiring managers, guiding role scoping, leveling, comp benchmarking, and hiring decisions

- Evaluate and optimize ATS and sourcing tools to increase team efficiency and candidate experience. This includes the use and adoption of AI tools

- Ensure every candidate — hired or not — has a consistent, high-quality experience that reflects Fingerprint's brand and values. Help elevate Fingerprint's presence in the talent market
