The opportunity
At Braze, we have found our people. We’re a genuinely approachable, exceptionally kind, and intensely passionate crew.
What you'll do
End-to-End Talent Acquisition: Source, recruit, and hire top talent across our Japan teams — mainly GTM, but also spanning Technical roles and G&A — managing the candidate lifecycle from initial outreach to offer acceptance.
Hiring Manager Partnership: Collaborate closely with hiring managers to understand team priorities, define ideal candidate profiles, and implement best-in-class recruiting strategies.
Candidate Evaluation & Debriefs: Screen candidates, facilitate post-interview debrief sessions, and guide hiring teams toward making data-driven hiring decisions.
Pipeline Management & Market Insights: Maintain a strong pulse on SaaS/Tech hiring trends in Japan, leveraging both direct sourcing methods and agency relationships to build robust, scalable candidate talent pools.
Broader Impact: Opportunities to support regional APAC recruiting initiatives and participate in cross-functional HR projects beyond talent acquisition in the future.
Experience: Minimum of 2 years of full-lifecycle recruiting experience (agency or in-house).
What they're looking for
- Bilingual Capability: Fluency in Japanese (native-level or equivalent) and professional working proficiency in English to engage with local candidates and communicate with global stakeholders.
- Growth Mindset & Curiosity: Eager to learn, open to feedback, and willing to try new approaches as the recruitment market evolves.
- Strategic & Analytical Thinking: Ability to track and analyze recruiting metrics to resolve pipeline bottlenecks and contribute to broader recruitment strategies.
- Execution & Organization: Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with a proven ability to prioritize competing demands in a fast-paced environment.
