Careers at Acumers

Build something
worth building.

We're a small team building a placement firm that operates differently: with published commitments, real market intelligence, and a genuine commitment to the people on both sides of every placement. If that's the work you want to do, keep reading.

Why Join Acumers

We built the firm
we wished existed.

Acumers was founded because the IT staffing industry kept failing the people who needed it most. We're building something with genuine integrity: published commitments, transparent flat-fee pricing, and real market data. If you want to do recruiting that you can actually be proud of, this is the right place.

🎯
Precision over volume
We don't measure success by submissions. We measure it by placements that actually fit, and consultants who are still thriving six months later.
📊
Real market knowledge
We invest in understanding the tech landscape deeply. You'll know current bill rates, demand signals, and what's actually happening in each stack.
🤝
People-first always
Transparent flat-fee model. Post-placement support built in. We don't cut corners on the things that matter to the people we serve.
📍
Fully remote
Work from anywhere in the US. We're results-oriented. We care about what you deliver, not when you log on.
📈
Early-stage opportunity
Acumers is at the beginning. The people who join now will shape how this firm operates for years. That's a meaningful thing to be part of.
💬
Honest internally too
The same standards we hold publicly (published commitments, honest communication, no volume games) apply internally. No KPIs that incentivize bad behavior.

Building the team
behind the standard.

We hire people who care about doing this work correctly, not people who are just good at looking busy. Some roles below are actively hiring now; others are roles we know we'll need as Acumers scales, and we're building the pipeline for them today. Every one has a real impact on the consultants and vendors we serve.

Recruiting
IT Recruiter: Contract Staffing
Full-Time Remote · US Posted June 2026 Active
+
About the Role
You will own end-to-end placement of IT professionals into C2C and W2 contract roles nationwide. This means everything: sourcing the right people, conducting genuine technical pre-screening, managing submission processes, coordinating with prime vendor partners, and staying with placed consultants through the first 60 days. The role is fully remote and performance is measured by placement quality, not submission volume.
What You'll Do
  • Source IT professionals through Dice, LinkedIn Recruiter, and direct outreach, with a genuine understanding of what each tech stack actually requires
  • Conduct pre-screening conversations that go beyond resume review: understanding each consultant's goals, constraints, and what they need from a placement
  • Manage submission processes with prime vendor partners, ensuring RTR confirmation and accurate documentation on every submittal
  • Coordinate interview scheduling, technical prep, and offer negotiation for placed consultants
  • Conduct post-placement check-ins at day 1, week 1, week 4, and month 2, and escalate issues proactively
  • Maintain accurate records in our ATS and provide weekly status updates per The Acumers Standard
What We're Looking For
  • 2+ years of IT recruiting experience, specifically in contract placements (C2C and W2)
  • Genuine understanding of Corp to Corp vs W2 models, able to explain the math to a consultant without a cheat sheet
  • Familiarity with VMS platforms (Fieldglass, Beeline, IQNavigator, or Coupa)
  • Experience recruiting across at least 2 of our core tech areas: AI/ML, cybersecurity, data engineering, cloud/DevOps, analytics, mobile
  • Someone who finds genuine satisfaction in staying with a placement after the offer is signed, not someone who considers that part done
How We Measure Success
  • Placement quality, not volume: submission-to-interview ratio matters more than submission count, we'd rather you submit 3 strong candidates than 15 mediocre ones
  • RTR accuracy: 100% of submittals have confirmed, documented Right to Represent before going out, zero exceptions
  • 60-day retention: percentage of your placements still active and satisfied at the 60-day mark
  • Response time to your own consultants: under 24 hours for any consultant question or concern, mirroring the Acumers Standard we hold externally
  • Check-in completion: 100% of placed consultants receive their day-1, week-1, week-4, and month-2 check-ins on schedule
We deliberately do not measure raw submission count or time-to-fill as standalone metrics. Those incentivize volume over judgment, which is the opposite of what Acumers stands for.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary + commission structure. Range discussed in first conversation. We don't hide it until late in the process. Full remote. Health benefits. Flexible schedule.
Business Development
Business Development Manager: Prime Vendor Partnerships
Full-Time Remote · US Posted June 2026 Active
+
About the Role
You will grow Acumers' prime vendor partnership network: identifying firms that need a reliable sub-vendor, building the relationship from first contact through MSA execution, and managing ongoing partnership health. This is a relationship-first role. You'll be representing a firm with published commitments and a differentiated approach. The story tells itself when it's told correctly.
What You'll Do
  • Identify and engage prime vendors across the US IT staffing market: large national staffing firms, regional boutiques, and MSPs managing sub-vendor programs
  • Conduct discovery conversations to understand a prime vendor's requirements profile, client mix, and sub-vendor standards
  • Manage the partnership onboarding process, from first conversation through MSA execution and first requirement
  • Build and maintain a pipeline of active and prospective prime vendor partnerships
  • Work closely with recruiting to ensure The Acumers Standard is delivered consistently across every active partnership
  • Represent Acumers at industry events and through direct outreach as the firm's BD presence
What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years of business development or sales experience in IT staffing, specifically in sub-vendor or vendor management roles
  • Genuine understanding of how prime vendor relationships work: MSAs, SOW terms, VMS portal operations, compliance requirements
  • Comfortable having honest conversations about what Acumers can and can't do. We don't oversell and we need BD people who share that standard
  • Strong written and verbal communication: you'll be representing the firm in writing and on calls with senior staffing executives
How We Measure Success
  • Active partnerships, not signed logos: a signed MSA with zero requirements flowing through it doesn't count. We track partnerships that are actually sending and filling work
  • Partnership health: percentage of active prime vendors who would recommend Acumers to another vendor (measured via direct check-ins, not surveys)
  • Pipeline accuracy: realistic, honestly-qualified pipeline over an inflated one, we'd rather know the true number
  • SLA delivery on your accounts: the 4-hour response and zero double-submission standard is honored on every partnership you bring in. That's a shared metric with recruiting, not separate from it
  • Time-to-first-requirement: how quickly a new partnership moves from signed MSA to an actual fillable requirement
Operations
Placement Coordinator: Operations Support
Part-Time or Full-Time Remote · US Posted June 2026 Active
+
About the Role
You will support the recruiting team with operational functions: VMS portal submissions, timesheet processing, documentation management, onboarding coordination, and the weekly status update cadence that is central to how we serve our prime vendor partners. This role is the operational backbone of The Acumers Standard.
What You'll Do
  • Manage submissions through VMS platforms (Fieldglass, Beeline, IQNavigator, Coupa)
  • Coordinate onboarding documentation for placed consultants: background checks, E-Verify, insurance certificates
  • Process timesheet approvals and coordinate with payroll for accurate, on-time payments
  • Maintain the weekly Monday status update process across all active requirements
  • Keep our ATS records accurate and current
What We're Looking For
  • 1+ year experience in IT staffing operations or coordinator role
  • VMS platform experience strongly preferred
  • Highly organized, process-oriented, comfortable managing multiple active engagements simultaneously
  • Someone who understands that operational precision is a client-facing quality. The consultant and the vendor feel every operational mistake
How We Measure Success
  • Documentation accuracy: 100% of onboarding files complete and audit-ready before a consultant's start date: background checks, E-Verify, insurance certs
  • Timesheet turnaround: approvals processed same-day, payroll coordination with zero late payments
  • Monday update consistency: the weekly status update goes out on time, every week, across every active requirement, no exceptions
  • ATS data integrity: records stay current in real time, not batched and updated weekly
Recruiting & Sourcing
Talent Sourcer: Technical Pipeline
Full-Time Remote · US Posted June 2026 Active
+
About the Role
Build and maintain the pipeline of qualified candidates across our core technology stacks: AI/ML, Data Science, Cybersecurity, Cloud/DevOps, and Data Engineering. You find the people our recruiters then place. This role is the engine behind our "max 3 candidates" standard. Finding the right three takes real sourcing skill, not volume.
What You'll Do
  • Source candidates via LinkedIn Recruiter, Dice, ClearanceJobs, and direct outreach
  • Screen resumes for technical fit, work authorization, and rate alignment before handoff to recruiters
  • Maintain and grow the Acumers candidate database by tech stack and experience tier
  • Build sourcing strategies for hard-to-fill roles (Cybersecurity, AI/ML specialists)
  • Track sourcing metrics: time-to-shortlist, candidate quality, response rates
What We're Looking For
  • 1+ year of technical sourcing or recruiting experience in IT staffing
  • Comfortable reading a resume for genuine technical signal, not just keyword matching
  • Familiarity with Boolean search and LinkedIn Recruiter sourcing techniques
  • Someone who treats every candidate as a future advocate of the firm, not a number
How We Measure Success
  • Shortlist quality over shortlist speed: the recruiter's acceptance rate of your sourced candidates matters more than how fast you produce a list
  • Pipeline depth by stack: a genuinely qualified, ready-to-submit bench across all 5 core tech areas, not just AI/ML, where sourcing is easiest
  • Screening accuracy: candidates you pass to recruiters should rarely get disqualified later for work authorization or rate misalignment you should have caught
  • Database health: percentage of sourced candidates with complete, current profiles, not stale records from a one-time outreach
Client Success
Client Success Manager: Prime Vendor Relations
Full-Time Remote · US Future Opening Pipeline
+
About the Role
Own the relationship with our prime vendor partners after the first placement lands. You're the person who makes sure the Acumers Standard (4-hour response, Monday updates, zero double submissions) is honored on every single requirement, every single week. This role opens as our prime vendor relationships scale in Phase 2.
What You'll Do
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for assigned prime vendor accounts
  • Run the weekly Monday status update cadence across all active requirements
  • Identify expansion opportunities within existing prime vendor relationships
  • Track and report on SLA performance: response time, fill rate, retention
What We're Looking For
  • 2+ years in account management, client success, or staffing vendor relations
  • Someone who treats a missed commitment as a personal failure, not a process gap
  • Comfortable being the one who delivers hard news directly and early
How We Measure Success
  • SLA adherence across your accounts: percentage of requirements receiving the under-4-hour response, every time, on every account you own
  • Partner retention and expansion: existing prime vendors sending more requirement volume over time, not just staying active
  • Escalation speed: problems surfaced to leadership before the vendor has to raise them themselves
  • Account health visibility: leadership always knows the real status of every relationship, no surprises in either direction
Marketing & Brand
Marketing & Brand Lead
Full-Time or Contract Remote · US Future Opening Pipeline
+
About the Role
Own the Acumers brand voice across LinkedIn, content, and every consultant- and vendor-facing touchpoint. We've built a distinctive identity: published SLAs, no TRAPs, real accountability, and this role is responsible for making sure the market actually hears it. This opens as we scale our content and outbound presence.
What You'll Do
  • Run the Acumers LinkedIn presence: company page, Acumers thought leadership, weekly cadence
  • Write and publish the content calendar: consultant-facing and vendor-facing blog posts
  • Maintain brand consistency across the website, collateral, and outbound materials
  • Track content performance and own the organic growth strategy
What We're Looking For
  • 2+ years in B2B marketing, ideally in staffing, recruiting, or professional services
  • A writer first: someone who can hold a specific, distinctive brand voice
  • Comfortable owning both strategy and the actual content calendar execution
How We Measure Success
  • LinkedIn engagement quality: meaningful comments and connection requests from actual prime vendor decision-makers and consultants, not just impression counts
  • Content cadence consistency: the published calendar ships on time, every time: 2 posts per month minimum, alternating consultant- and vendor-facing
  • Inbound attribution: tracking how many discovery calls and applications originate from organic content vs other channels
  • Brand voice consistency: every piece of content sounds like Acumers (specific, accountable, allergic to vague claims), not generic staffing-firm copy
People & Talent
People & Talent Partner: Consultant Experience
Full-Time Remote · US Future Opening Pipeline
+
About the Role
Own the post-placement experience for every consultant Acumers places: the 60-day check-in cadence, the security deposit credit process, and the ongoing advocacy that makes Acumers different from firms that disappear after the offer letter. This is the role that makes "we stay after the placement" true in practice, not just in copy.
What You'll Do
  • Run structured check-ins with every placed consultant through day 60
  • Process security deposit credits accurately and on schedule
  • Be the first point of contact for placed-consultant questions or concerns
  • Identify and escalate any placement at risk before it becomes a problem
What We're Looking For
  • 1+ year in a consultant-facing, HR, or client success role within IT staffing
  • High empathy combined with process discipline, this role needs both
  • Someone who genuinely believes post-placement support is not optional
How We Measure Success
  • Check-in completion rate: 100% of placed consultants receive every scheduled check-in (day 1, week 1, week 4, month 2) on time
  • Deposit credit accuracy: security deposit credits processed correctly and on the exact 60-day schedule, no delays, no errors
  • Early issue detection: placement risks identified and escalated before they become a consultant leaving or a vendor complaint
  • Consultant satisfaction: direct feedback from placed consultants on whether Acumers' post-placement support matched what was promised
Technical Vetting
Technical Vetting Advisor: Cloud & Cybersecurity
Contract / Part-Time Remote · US Future Opening Pipeline
+
About the Role
Be the technical second opinion that makes Acumers' vetting claim actually true. Recruiters can screen for fit and communication, but they can't always tell the difference between someone who's used Terraform and someone who's only read about it. This role does that, on Cloud/DevOps and Cybersecurity candidates specifically, the two stacks where a wrong technical read costs the most.
What You'll Do
  • Run technical screening calls for Cloud/DevOps and Cybersecurity candidates before they're submitted to a prime vendor
  • Give recruiters a clear, specific readout: what this candidate actually knows, where the gaps are
  • Help write the technical depth content that keeps our specialization pages accurate as the market shifts
  • Flag when a candidate's resume claims don't match what they can demonstrate, before that becomes a vendor's problem
What We're Looking For
  • 5+ years hands-on in Cloud/DevOps or Cybersecurity, not just adjacent project management
  • Comfortable evaluating someone else's technical depth in a 30-minute conversation
  • Available for a handful of screening calls per week, this is not a full-time commitment to start
How We Measure Success
  • Screen accuracy: candidates cleared by this role hold up technically once they're in front of a client
  • Turnaround: screening calls completed within the same window as our 4-hour requirement response commitment
  • Recruiter confidence: internal recruiters trust the readout enough to submit without re-checking it themselves
Technical Vetting
Technical Vetting Advisor: AI/ML & Data Science
Contract / Part-Time Remote · US Future Opening Pipeline
+
About the Role
AI/ML is the highest-demand, fastest-moving specialization on our board, and the easiest one for a resume to overstate. This role is the technical second opinion specifically for AI/ML and Data Science candidates: separating real model-building and production ML experience from someone who's mostly used a chatbot to write code they don't fully understand.
What You'll Do
  • Run technical screening calls for AI/ML and Data Science candidates before they're submitted to a prime vendor
  • Distinguish genuine production ML experience (training, deployment, MLOps) from project-only or tutorial-level exposure
  • Give recruiters a clear, specific readout on what a candidate can actually build versus describe
  • Help keep our AI/ML specialization page's technical depth content accurate as the field moves
What We're Looking For
  • 5+ years hands-on in ML engineering or applied data science, ideally with production deployment experience
  • Comfortable telling the difference between real depth and well-rehearsed buzzwords in a 30-minute conversation
  • Available for a handful of screening calls per week, this is not a full-time commitment to start
How We Measure Success
  • Screen accuracy: candidates cleared by this role hold up technically once they're in front of a client
  • Turnaround: screening calls completed within the same window as our 4-hour requirement response commitment
  • Recruiter confidence: internal recruiters trust the readout enough to submit without re-checking it themselves
People & Talent
Consultant Development Lead
Full-Time Remote · US Future Opening Pipeline
+
About the Role
Own the published commitment that as a consultant's contract winds down, Acumers proactively works to line up the next one. That's a real, written promise, and someone needs to be accountable for keeping it as the consultant roster grows past what one person can track manually.
What You'll Do
  • Track every active consultant's contract timeline and flag upcoming end dates 60 days out
  • Proactively match winding-down consultants against open requirements before they have to ask
  • Run skills check-ins between engagements: what's changed in their stack, what they want next
  • Partner with recruiters so a consultant's history with Acumers actually speeds up their next placement
What We're Looking For
  • 2+ years in IT staffing, consultant relations, or talent development
  • Organized enough to track dozens of contract timelines without anyone falling through
  • Genuinely motivated by long-term relationships over one-time placements
How We Measure Success
  • Re-placement rate: percentage of consultants with a next opportunity lined up before their current contract ends
  • Lead time: how far ahead of a contract's end date the next conversation actually starts
  • Consultant retention with Acumers: consultants choosing to work with us again versus going elsewhere for their next role
