Technical Recruiter - Infrastructure

Harvey•San Francisco, CA

2d•$140,000 - $150,000

About The Position

Harvey is transforming how legal and professional services operate by combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. The company has strong product-market fit and world-class investor support, and is scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth is unmatched. The team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission, operating with intensity, staying close to customers, and pushing each other for excellence. Harvey values Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. The future of professional services is being written today at Harvey. Harvey is used by thousands of legal and professional services teams globally. Accuracy, security, and uptime are critical to the product. As Harvey grows into new markets, customer segments, and deployment models, the infrastructure must scale faster than the business. This includes global, multi-region systems meeting strict data residency and latency requirements, enterprise- and government-grade security and compliance, model and AI infrastructure for fast, reliable, and cost-efficient frontier models, and platform foundations that enable all Harvey engineering teams to ship faster. The engineers who build this are hard to hire, necessitating a recruiter who understands this market to help build a top Infrastructure organization.

Requirements

3–5 years of full-cycle technical recruiting, including meaningful time hiring infrastructure, platform, SRE, or platform engineers
Experience in a high-growth startup or scale-up where speed and quality both mattered
A track record of hiring senior and Staff-level engineers, including passive candidates you sourced yourself
Enough technical fluency to have credible conversations about infra work: you can tell a platform engineer from an SRE, and a database specialist from a distributed systems generalist, and you can pitch each one's problems at Harvey
Strong relationships with hiring managers, who treat you as a partner rather than an order-taker
Comfort with data. You use metrics to diagnose problems and influence decisions
You follow the infra and AI talent market: which companies are growing, which are shrinking, and where top engineers want to go next
Low ego and high ownership. You'll roll up your sleeves to get the team built

Nice To Haves

experience recruiting for AI/ML infrastructure or model serving teams, security or compliance-heavy environments, or distributed engineering teams across multiple locations.

Responsibilities

Partner with Infra and Platform leaders to turn roadmap priorities into a clear hiring plan: which roles, which profiles, in what order
Build and maintain pipelines across infra specialties: distributed systems, cloud (AWS/Azure), Kubernetes, databases/Postgres, SRE and reliability, ML/model serving, and security
Map talent at companies that have solved infra at scale (hyperscalers, AI labs, and high-growth infra and data companies) and run targeted outreach to passive senior and Staff+ engineers
Advise hiring managers on the infra talent market, including comp, competing offers, level calibration, and what these candidates look for in their next role
Run a high-signal, candidate-first process for technical loops (system design, deep dives, on-call and reliability scenarios), and keep interviewers calibrated and moving quickly
Close competitive candidates by telling a clear story about Harvey's infra problems, their scope, and why they matter
Keep Ashby clean and use pipeline data (conversion, time in stage, source quality) to change course when something isn't working
Improve how we hire infra talent: interview plans, sourcing playbooks, referral programs, and events
