Technical Recruiter

Tutor Intelligence • Watertown, MA

22d • $110,000 - $145,000 • Onsite

About The Position

Tutor Intelligence is building teams of engineers and researchers who are pushing the frontier of what robots can do in the real world. As a Technical Recruiter, you will find, earn the trust of, and bring in these individuals. Tutor is deploying robotics AI into factories and warehouses across the country, and the engineers and researchers behind that technology are the core of what Tutor is building. As our Technical Recruiter, you will own the full recruiting lifecycle for these roles: sourcing, screening, coordinating, and closing. You will partner closely with our engineering and research leadership, and report into the Head of People Strategy. We are looking for someone who is deeply curious, technically literate, and skilled at building relationships with candidates who get a lot of inbound and aren't always looking. You know how to have a real conversation about someone's work, understand what makes a role technically interesting, and represent Tutor's mission in a way that resonates with people who care about hard problems. You take seriously the fact that you're often the first person a candidate ever talks to at Tutor — you understand that every interaction is a reflection of who we are, and you bring the same care and intentionality to a first outreach message as you do to closing an offer.

Requirements

• 2+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, with exposure to software engineering, hardware, or research roles
• Proven ability to source and engage passive candidates — especially people who aren't actively looking
• Technically literate enough to have meaningful conversations with engineers and researchers about their work
• Strong relationship-builder; you play a long game and candidates remember you
• Organized and process-oriented; you keep the ATS clean and hiring managers informed
• Familiarity with ATS platforms (we currently use Lever)

Nice To Haves

• Experience recruiting at an early-stage startup (Series A–C)
• Background recruiting for robotics, computer vision, ML/AI, or hardware-focused companies
• Familiarity with recruiting across multiple technical disciplines simultaneously (software, hardware, research)
• Network in Boston/Cambridge engineering or research communities
• Understanding of how to evaluate technical depth in candidates without a formal engineering background

Responsibilities

• Full-cycle recruiting for engineering and research roles — software engineers, hardware engineers, AI/ML researchers, and more as we grow
• Building and maintaining deep pipelines for hard-to-fill technical roles, with a heavy emphasis on outbound sourcing
• Partnering with engineering and research leadership to understand role requirements, team dynamics, and what makes a great technical fit at Tutor
• Delivering a candidate experience that reflects Tutor's culture and values at every touchpoint
• Keeping recruiting data and reporting current in Lever
• Partnering with the People Ops Manager to ensure a smooth handoff from offer acceptance to day one, so every new hire feels set up for success before they even walk in the door

Benefits

• Fully employer-covered health insurance
• Managed 401(k)
• Regular in-office meals
• Social events
• Collaborative, low-ego work culture where people are trusted to take ownership and solve real problems
