Technical Recruiter, Research
About The Position
About Cartesia Our mission is to build the next generation of AI: ubiquitous, interactive intelligence that runs wherever you are. Today, not even the best models can continuously process and reason over a year-long stream of audio, video and text—1B text tokens, 10B audio tokens and 1T video tokens—let alone do this on-device. We're pioneering the model architectures that will make this possible. Our founding team met as PhDs at the Stanford AI Lab, where we invented State Space Models or SSMs, a new primitive for training efficient, large-scale foundation models. Our team combines deep expertise in model innovation and systems engineering paired with a design-minded product engineering team to build and ship cutting edge models and experiences. We're funded by leading investors at Index Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners, along with Factory, Conviction, A Star, General Catalyst, SV Angel, Databricks and others. We're fortunate to have the support of many amazing advisors, and 90+ angels across many industries, including the world's foremost experts in AI. Role Responsibilities We’re looking for a Technical Recruiter to help us grow our team of engineers and researchers, and drive hiring end-to-end. You’ll own full-cycle hiring across technical roles — from sourcing and outreach to offer — and partner closely with hiring managers to deliver exceptional talent pipelines. This is a high-impact role where you’ll help shape the team and culture at one of the most exciting startups in AI.
