Technical Resourcing Specialist (Nearshore/Offshore - SOW Delivery)

Remote | UK/EU timezone overlap preferred

Salary: £40,000–£60,000 (DOE)

Tribes is a remote-first digital delivery business with a global network of DevCheck-vetted engineers. We deliver statement-of-work (SOW) builds and managed teams for international clients — and resourcing is at the heart of how we win and deliver.

We're hiring a specialist technology resourcer who can consistently source and mobilise nearshore/offshore engineers for delivery. This is not a generalist recruitment role.

What you'll be doing
  • Own end-to-end resourcing for client opportunities and delivery teams (nearshore/offshore).
  • Build and maintain pipelines across core stacks: React, Node, Python, Java, .NET, Mobile, QA, DevOps, Data.
  • Actively source and engage high-quality engineers (not just manage inbound).
  • Run structured screening: stack fit, seniority calibration, communication, timezone overlap, availability, rate alignment.
  • Ensure candidates complete DevCheck and meet Tribes quality bar before being presented.
  • Produce clear job specs with Delivery/CTO: must-haves, deal-breakers, interview plan, assessment steps.
  • Support Commercial with availability, rate benchmarks, feasibility input, and team composition options for SOW proposals.
  • Negotiate terms with developers (day/hourly rates, start dates, engagement model basics).
  • Own onboarding: documentation, compliance admin, platform setup, and early engagement to reduce drop-off.
  • Keep CRM/talent systems accurate and organised (stages, notes, tags, stack, rate, availability, outcomes).
  • Feed insights to improve our platform and resourcing processes (templates, scorecards, workflows).
  • Support developer community engagement (updates, comms, occasional events/hackathons).
What you'll need (non-negotiable)
  • 3+ years recruiting/sourcing software engineers (agency, internal, RPO, delivery partner, or freelance resourcing).
  • Demonstrable experience recruiting nearshore/offshore engineers across multiple regions.
  • Experience supporting SOW / fixed-price delivery teams (not only perm hiring).
  • Strong technical literacy: can confidently discuss stacks, roles, and seniority signals.
  • Commercial confidence: rates, delivery constraints, trade-offs, and candidate management.
  • Excellent written and spoken English.
  • Strong organisation and pace — you keep pipelines moving and data clean.
Nice to have
  • Experience in a software agency / consultancy / studio environment.
  • Familiarity with structured technical vetting, scorecards, and quality control.
  • Awareness of contract models and delivery ways of working (no legal expertise required).
This role is not for you if...
  • You're a generalist recruiter moving across non-tech sectors.
  • Your background is mainly perm hiring without delivery-team mobilisation.
  • You rely on inbound applicants rather than active sourcing and pipeline building.
Why join Tribes?
  • Fully remote, global team with real autonomy.
  • Central role in delivery outcomes — high visibility and real ownership.
  • Influence tooling and process, including the evolution of DevCheck workflows.
  • Progression opportunity as the function scales.
To apply

Please include your CV plus short answers to:

  • Which nearshore/offshore regions have you recruited from, and what stacks?
  • Example of a SOW delivery team you mobilised: roles, timeframe, and how you assessed quality.
  • What channels have worked best for you in the last 12 months (and why)?
