Technical Recruiter Jobs in the United States

About the Role

Join an early-stage applied AI company as one of its first recruiting hires. You will own full-cycle hiring for technical teams and partner directly with founders to establish a strong recruiting function.

What You'll Do

• Lead full-cycle recruiting for software engineering, infrastructure, applied AI, and product engineering roles.

• Build outbound sourcing pipelines for technical candidates from AI labs, quant firms, and high-growth startups.

• Partner with founders on hiring strategy, role calibration, interview design, and candidate closing.

• Create a thoughtful, efficient candidate experience.

• Develop recruiting systems, workflows, templates, and talent market maps.

What We're Looking For

• Two to eight years of technical recruiting experience, including work in a startup or boutique agency environment.

• A record of sourcing, engaging, and closing engineering candidates in competitive markets, including hard-to-close senior, founding, or infrastructure talent.

• Experience building outbound sourcing pipelines and partnering directly with founders, executives, or senior hiring managers.

• Strong understanding of software engineering, infrastructure, full-stack, and applied AI roles.

• Comfort working at startup pace, with experience beyond corporate-only recruiting.

• A bachelor's degree from a US university, and a track record of reasonable tenure in recent roles.

• Connections across engineering, AI, startup, university, or quant communities are useful.
