Talent Acquisition Specialist

As a Talent Acquisition Specialist at OKX, you own top-of-funnel sourcing across the US, LATAM, and APAC, with the heaviest focus on APAC where our fastest hiring growth is happening. You spend the majority of your time proactively identifying, engaging, and converting passive talent by mapping markets, building long-term talent communities, and becoming the go-to person hiring managers turn to when they need to know who is out there.

What you'll do

• Own top-of-funnel sourcing across US, LATAM, and APAC using multi-channel strategies including LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean and X-ray search, GitHub, Behance, Dribbble, Telegram, Discord, WeChat, Maimai, BOSS Zhipin, referrals, alumni networks, and crypto-native communities.
• Serve as the sourcing engine for APAC hiring, developing deep talent maps across Singapore, Hong Kong, mainland China, Japan, Malaysia, Australia, and India with region-specific outreach strategies that account for local platforms, languages, notice periods, and compensation norms.
• Produce competitor org maps, talent availability reports, and compensation benchmarks by region to inform role scoping, level calibration, and hiring plans.
• Write and test outreach that gets replies, owning the candidate experience from first touch through handoff and running screens that assess motivation, mobility, and fit.
• Build and maintain evergreen pipelines and talent communities for recurring and hard-to-fill roles, keeping silver-medalist and passive-candidate pools active.
• Partner with recruiters, hiring managers, and regional HR teams across time zones through intake sessions, calibration meetings, and pipeline reviews grounded in market reality.
• Track and report on sourcing funnel metrics including outreach volume, response rate, screen-to-submit, submit-to-onsite, and pipeline health by region.
• Represent OKX to passive talent at recruiting events, meetups, and community engagements to position OKX as the destination employer in crypto across every market you cover.

What you bring

• 3+ years of full-lifecycle recruiting or dedicated sourcing experience with a demonstrable track record of building pipelines from scratch rather than working inbound applicant flow.
• Hands-on APAC sourcing experience, having hired into at least one major APAC market with understanding of its platforms, candidate behavior, and hiring norms.
• Experience recruiting across multiple regions and time zones, ideally including US and LATAM alongside APAC.
• Advanced sourcing toolkit including Boolean and X-ray search, LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, portfolio platforms, and region-specific channels.
• Strong written outreach skills and ability to craft personalized, high-response messaging at volume.
• Proficiency with Applicant Tracking Systems and sourcing CRMs with disciplined data hygiene and pipeline tracking.
• Ability to operate with ambiguity and shifting priorities in a fast-moving, high-growth environment.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.

Nice to have

• Crypto, Web3, or fintech recruiting experience.
• Additional language capability relevant to APAC markets such as Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, or Bahasa.
• Experience building talent communities or running sourcing jams and hiring events.

What we offer

• Salary range of $143,111 to $178,888, with the final offer dependent on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and market location.
• Performance bonus and long-term incentives as part of the compensation package.
• Comprehensive medical, financial, and other benefits.
• Learning and development programs and education subsidy for your growth.
• Various team building programs and company events.
• Wellness and meal allowances.
• Comprehensive healthcare schemes for employees and dependents.
