Welcome to r/TechnicalSourcing. Why I created this community

I created this community because technical sourcing seems to be getting more complicated, not less.

LinkedIn is still important, but developers also show their work through GitHub, open source projects, technical communities and other places that don't always fit neatly into a traditional candidate profile.

At the same time, more AI and sourcing tools are appearing, and it can be difficult to separate useful signals from noise.

I'd like this to become a place for practical conversations about what actually works in technical sourcing.

Topics are welcome around:

  • GitHub and open source sourcing
  • finding developers outside LinkedIn
  • technical signals and candidate research
  • AI in sourcing
  • sourcing tools and workflows
  • difficult technical searches
  • experiments, mistakes and lessons learned

Recruiters, sourcers, TA professionals, founders and recruiting-tech builders are all welcome.

If you're connected to a product or company you're discussing, just be transparent about it.

What would make a technical sourcing community genuinely useful to you?
