In the week to 27 September, 22 recruiter roles were open in Washington, D.C. at 9 employers. 4 new roles were posted during the week. Of the roles that say how they work, 36% are remote or hybrid.
Among the roles listed here, Recruiter and people-team openings make up a notable share of the Washington D.C. board. The seniority mix leans heavily toward experienced hires: more than half of roles with a stated level are senior positions, and close to a third carry management responsibility; lead and director titles each account for a small minority. Postings have arrived at a broadly even pace across recent weeks, with no single period dominating. A striking feature of the local listings is employer concentration: the large majority of roles sit with just a handful of hirers. Because open-roles history is limited, no direction over time is described here.
Figures are measured every Monday.
Recruiters source, assess and move candidates through hiring pipelines, partnering with hiring managers to define role requirements and building relationships with talent communities. In Washington D.C., this work is shaped by the region's dense federal and contractor ecosystem, where security-clearance familiarity is a recurring expectation in tech hiring. The presence of Amazon's East Coast headquarters across the Potomac in Arlington, and research institutions such as Georgetown University's Center for Security and Emerging Technology and the TRAILS partnership anchored at the University of Maryland and George Washington University, means local recruiting teams often engage with both commercial technology talent and policy-adjacent research communities. Graduate pipeline work tied to campuses such as Virginia Tech's Innovation Campus in Alexandria is also part of the landscape.
Skills mentioned in descriptions here lean toward technical familiarity that helps recruiters screen candidates credibly. Computer vision comes up in nearly half of descriptions, suggesting many open roles sit inside AI or imaging-focused teams. Evaluation methods are referenced in roughly a quarter, and cloud platforms — AWS, GCP and Azure — each appear in a minority of postings. A small share of descriptions mention LLMs and agent-based systems, pointing to recruiting work within generative-AI product teams.
The employers' own advertised ranges, for individual roles at different levels — not an average and not a market rate.
On-site working is by far the most common arrangement among roles that state a preference, accounting for nearly two thirds of those listings. Hybrid working covers about a third. Fully remote roles are a very small minority. The concentration of federal and contractor employers in the region likely contributes to the strong on-site tilt.
