As a Talent Acquisition Specialist - Emerging Talent, you'll be the face of 1Password to the next generation of talent. Our team oversees internships, new graduate hiring, and intentional pathways for people launching or transitioning into careers in tech - supporting teams across Technology, Product, Design & UX, Data, Finance, and Go To Market (GTM).

This role sits at the intersection of recruiting, program operations, and relationship building. You'll manage full intern hiring cycles, maintain our university and community partnerships, support employer brand efforts, and own meaningful pieces of the intern program experience from onboarding through graduation. You bring strong organizational instincts, genuine energy for junior talent work, and a natural curiosity for how AI and emerging tools can make the work sharper and more efficient. At 1Password, embracing AI in how we work isn't just encouraged - it's an essential part of how we win.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada or the US.

What we're looking for

• 2–3 years of experience in Emerging Talent, Campus Recruitment, University Relations, or Early Careers, ideally within a tech or high-growth environment
• Proven ability to manage full-cycle early-career hiring across multiple functions and cohorts simultaneously, from req creation through offer acceptance
• Hands-on experience with applicant tracking systems and recruiting tools (we use Ashby and BrightHire), and the organizational rigour to keep pipelines clean and moving
• A track record of planning and executing on campus and virtual recruiting events with energy and attention to detail
• Genuine curiosity about AI. You actively explore how AI tools can improve sourcing, communications, reporting, and candidate experience, and you bring what you learn back to the team
• Strong interpersonal skills - you can build trust with candidates, hiring managers, and university partners, and you're comfortable having challenging conversations when needed
• A data mindset - you use metrics to understand what's working, run end-of-cycle recaps, and proactively flag where a process needs improvement
• A self-starter who thrives with autonomy and adapts well when things shift, which they often do in our scaling environment.

What you can expect

• You'll own the day-to-day recruiting cycle for all internship cohorts - managing pipelines, coordinating interviews, extending offers, and serving as the primary point of contact for candidates and hiring managers throughout
• You'll support new graduate and junior level hiring for Engineering and technical functions, including intern-to-full time conversion tracking, as well as potential recruitment support for other emerging junior talent areas
• You'll be the face of 1Password on campus - maintaining relationships with university career centres, student organizations, and community partners, and planning and executing recruiting events including career fairs, hackathons, and info sessions
• You'll contribute to employer brand and program content for the team, including social copy, event follow-up, and swag and materials management across cohorts
• You'll own the intern program experience each term - from pre-boarding operations and Day 1 setup through intern events, engagement programming, and end-of-term surveys - ensuring every cohort has a consistent, high-quality experience. You’ll also be responsible for keeping in touch with past interns and keeping in touch for potential full time opportunities.
• During slower hiring windows, you may flex into broader talent acquisition and project support across other functions
• 10–15% travel should be expected, with the expectation for weekend travel during busy recruitment periods
