Currently relocating to Germany for my partner's job, so currently looking for a role. Found a mid-sized company with a perfect fit, along with the title of who it reports to, who I was then able to find on LinkedIn. I am planning on reaching out to a recruiter at the company, but would it be alright to reach out to the individual the role reports to as well?

As someone who’s lived in US and Germany I’d say be careful about being too “American” in some outreach - like reaching out to a stranger and using informal language like “hello first name” would be more questioned by people there
