Talent Partner - Technical
About The Position
AIUC builds standards and insurance for frontier AI, with a mission to underwrite superintelligence. The Talent Partner will own end-to-end hiring for technical roles, including forward deployed engineers, platform engineers, and specialists in evaluations, security, and research. They will work directly with engineering leads and founders to define role profiles, identify candidates who are not actively looking, and close hires. The Talent Partner will be an early point of contact for engineers and will need to communicate AIUC’s mission credibly. During the first 90 days, the Talent Partner will take over active engineering searches and build live candidate pipelines for the newest technical roles. The role also includes managing agency relationships, tracking recruiting funnel performance, and helping make AIUC an attractive workplace for engineers through events and team networks.
