Careem is building the Everything App for the greater Middle East — making it easy to move around, order food and groceries, manage payments, and more. Our purpose is simple: to simplify and improve people’s lives and build an awesome organisation that inspires.
Since 2012, Careem has enabled earnings for over 2.5 million Captains, simplified the lives of more than 70 million customers, and built a platform where the region’s best talent and entrepreneurs thrive. We operate in 70+ cities across 10 countries, from Morocco to Pakistan.

We’re now entering our next chapter — one powered by AI. We’re looking for AI talent: curious problem-solvers who know how to apply AI to build tools, automate workflows, and create real impact. Whether it’s streamlining operations, enhancing customer experience, or reimagining internal systems — we want people who can make Careem work smarter and move faster.

At Careem, we’re not just hiring - we’re building the future of mobility and technology in the region. To get there, we need exceptional people, so we’re looking for a Talent Acquisition Partner who is passionate about finding, engaging, and hiring world-class tech talent. This is your chance to make a real impact by shaping the teams behind Careem’s Data & AI and Engineering orgs, two of our most critical and fast-growing areas. You will work closely with business stakeholders, building strategic talent pipelines and ensuring seamless hiring experiences in a high-growth environment.

 

• Be a trusted partner: Work hand-in-hand with Engineering and Data & AI leaders to understand their vision, anticipate hiring needs, and co-create talent strategies.
• Demonstrate sourcing excellence: Proactively source, engage, and build pipelines of high-caliber talent. Share competitor intelligence, and hiring benchmarks to inform decisions.
• Recruit across critical roles: From Backend and Mobile Engineers to Data Scientists, you’ll play a key role in building the backbone of Careem’s technology across key markets including UAE, Pakistan, Egypt and Jordan.
• Shape the candidate journey: Champion a seamless and positive candidate experience, setting clear expectations and maintaining timely, transparent communication throughout the hiring journey. Own the full hiring process end-to-end including sourcing, screening, scheduling and offer management, ensuring candidates walk away with a best-in-class experience.
• Stay agile and data-driven: Share insights, market intelligence, and regular progress updates with stakeholders to continuously refine our approach. Updates will include pipeline health, time-to-fill metrics, and talent landscape insights.

 

• 5+ years’ experience in Talent Acquisition, with strong focus on technical recruiting across Engineering, Data Science, Data Analytics.
• Proven success in fast-paced environments (start-ups, scale-ups, or high-growth tech companies preferred).
• Confident in full-cycle recruitment from sourcing to offer management, and fluent with tools like LinkedIn Recruiter and Applicant Tracking Systems (eg. Greenhouse).
• Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills - you know how to build trust, push back when needed, and deliver results.
• A proactive, creative problem solver who thrives in ambiguity and is motivated by building something big.

 

At Careem, you’ll be more than a Talent Acquisition Partner. You’ll be a builder of teams that are redefining how millions of people's lives are simplified and connected across our region. You’ll have the chance to leave your mark on a fast-scaling tech org, collaborate with some of the brightest minds, and influence the future of Careem’s tech capabilities.
