About The Position

We are looking for an exceptional Senior Technical Recruiter to join our Talent team. This is a full-cycle, individual contributor role responsible for driving end-to-end recruitment for technical positions across the organization, with a focus on AI, ML, and agentic engineering talent. The ideal candidate is a strategic operator — someone who recruits with the end in mind, builds trusted relationships with executive stakeholders, and closes competitive offers without flinching. You bring deep sourcing expertise, strong market instincts, and a data-driven approach to every search. You have a track record at companies people recognize, long tenures that reflect real ownership, and the startup experience to thrive in a high-velocity, high-ambiguity environment. This is not a requisition-processing role. We are looking for someone who treats recruiting as a craft and AI as a competitive advantage.

Requirements

• 6–10+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, with at least 3 years in a senior or lead individual contributor capacity
• Demonstrated success hiring for Engineering, AI/ML, Agentic Systems, Data, or Security roles in competitive markets
• Proven experience influencing executive-level stakeholders and partnering with senior hiring managers as a strategic advisor
• Meaningful tenure at previous employers reflecting real ownership and investment in outcomes, not frequent role-hopping
• US-based hiring experience required
• End-to-end technical recruiting with a specialization in AI/ML or agentic engineering talent
• Advanced sourcing expertise: Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, talent mapping, and AI-assisted sourcing tools
• Offer negotiation and candidate closing, including competing offer management and counter-offer inoculation
• Data-driven recruiting: pipeline metrics, conversion tracking, capacity planning, and reporting to leadership
• Market intelligence: compensation benchmarking, talent landscape analysis, competitor insights
• ATS proficiency (Greenhouse preferred)
• Executive presence and the ability to influence senior stakeholders with data and clear recommendations
• Strategic problem-solving — you diagnose root causes, not just symptoms
• Strong ownership mindset: you treat every open role as your own business problem to solve
• High resilience and accountability; you close what you open
• Comfort operating at startup speed with limited support infrastructure
• Intellectual curiosity about AI and its implications for the talent landscape

Nice To Haves

• Startup or high-growth experience preferred
• Global hiring exposure a strong plus
• Experience at AI-first companies or AI research organizations
• Experience at high-growth technology startups (Series B through IPO)
• Experience at SaaS or product-led technology companies
• Experience at enterprise technology firms with rigorous technical hiring standards

Responsibilities

• Own and manage the full recruitment lifecycle for technical roles, with particular depth in AI, ML, agentic systems, and software engineering
• Partner directly with executive and senior hiring managers to run structured intake meetings, define hiring strategy, and align on success criteria
• Build proactive, multi-channel sourcing strategies using LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, Boolean search, talent mapping, referral networks, and AI-powered sourcing tools
• Screen and evaluate candidates for both technical capability and cultural alignment
• Manage the interview process end-to-end, ensuring a consistent and high-quality candidate experience
• Drive stakeholder alignment and influence hiring decisions at the executive level with data, market intelligence, and clear point-of-view
• Lead offer negotiations and candidate closing conversations, including managing competing offers, counter-offer scenarios, and complex compensation structures
• Provide ongoing market intelligence: compensation benchmarks, talent mapping, competitor hiring trends, and AI talent landscape shifts
• Track and report on pipeline metrics, conversion rates, and time-to-fill; maintain rigorous ATS hygiene (Greenhouse preferred)
• Champion AI-forward recruiting practices — actively evaluate and adopt tools that improve sourcing quality, pipeline efficiency, and candidate assessment
• Continuously improve hiring processes for speed, quality, and equity

Benefits

• Amazing work culture (Super collaborative & supportive work environment; 5 days a week)
• Awesome colleagues (Surround yourself with top talent from Meta, Google, LinkedIn etc. as well as people with deep startup experience)
• Competitive compensation
• Flexible working hours
