About The Position

We're an early-stage neo lab looking for a Senior Recruiter to join our team. You'll play a key role in the early chapters of our story — recruiting world-class talent across technical and non-technical functions (think AI researchers, GTM, and more). You'll build the Adaption talent brand from the ground up, develop creative attraction strategies, and partner directly with founders Sara Hooker and Sudip Roy.

Requirements

• 3+ years in a recruiter role, ideally at an early-stage tech startup
• Proven track record recruiting across both technical and non-technical functions — experience with highly technical AI roles (model efficiency, distributed systems, post-training) is a strong foundation
• Comfortable working with tools like LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox, and Ashby
• A creative, determined mindset — you don't quit when a search gets hard

Nice To Haves

• Genuine curiosity about the broader talent function — employee experience, onboarding, coordination, and culture

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle recruiting — sourcing, screening, coordinating, and closing
• Partner with hiring managers to build sharp hiring strategies and keep processes moving with clarity and speed
• Deliver a thoughtful candidate experience from first outreach through offer
• Build and iterate on Adaption's talent brand and overall attraction strategy
