Technical Recruiter — AI Infrastructure | San Francisco

Cube Management•San Francisco, CA

1d•Onsite

About The Position

We're partnering with one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure companies in the country to find their next Technical Recruiter. This is a rare, high-ownership role where you'll be one of the first recruiting hires — working directly alongside the Head of Talent to build the engineering team powering frontier AI data infrastructure. The Opportunity This isn't a support role and it isn't a coordinator seat. You'll own full-cycle technical recruiting end-to-end — sourcing, screening, closing — across AI, infrastructure, and full-stack engineering roles. You'll partner directly with founders and hiring managers, build sourcing pipelines and outbound sequences from scratch, and iterate fast in a high-intensity environment where autonomy is the default. The ideal candidate has come up through a recruiting agency or a high-growth startup and knows how to talk to engineers, move quickly, and operate without a playbook.

Requirements

1–3 years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience — agency or high-growth startup strongly preferred
Demonstrated ability to source and close engineers in a competitive market
Comfort with ambiguity — you don't need a process handed to you; you build it
Fluency in technical conversations — you can hold your own with engineering candidates and hiring managers
Proficiency with Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter , and email sequencing tools
High ownership mindset: you ramp fast, operate independently, and take accountability for outcomes
Must be based in or willing to relocate to San Francisco, CA — this role is onsite 5 days/week
All candidates must be authorized to work in the US.
