We're building at the frontier of AI infrastructure, and their next critical hire is a Founding Technical Recruiter. This person will own the full engineering hiring funnel — from sourcing elite technical talent to closing candidates — and play a pivotal role in scaling the team that defines the company’s trajectory. With a focus on top-tier engineering hires (think IOI, IWO, WRO medalists and other exceptional builders), this is a chance to directly shape the caliber and culture of the company’s early team.
The recruiter will operate with a high degree of autonomy, working directly with the founders while taking over all candidate interfacing and process management. They’ll be expected to bring both a strong technical background and a deep network in the tech/startup community, enabling them to evaluate candidates at a high bar.
