What are the responsibilities and job description for the Recruiter position at Watney Robotics Inc?
Our Mission
Expand human ambition in the physical world.
Critical infrastructure is constrained by labor shortages, hazardous working conditions, and operational complexity. Watney builds and deploys autonomous robotic systems that increase the speed and capacity of buildout, starting with data centers.
We believe the most important decision you can make is what you work on and who you work with. Watney builds and deploys autonomous robotic systems for the largest hyperscalers in the world. Come work with the former GSM for the iPhone, the architect of Uber's realtime pricing engine, and the engineer behind the world’s fastest EV racecar at ETH Zurich.
About The Role
Watney is looking for a Recruiter to join our fast-growing talent function and help us build one of the most exceptional teams in robotics. You'll work closely with our founders and team to keep candidates moving efficiently through our process, making sure every person who touches Watney has an exceptional experience.
This is the operational backbone of our recruiting engine: sourcing, scheduling, coordinating, communicating, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. You'll be hands-on from the start: owning candidate experience and helping us build the infrastructure to scale hiring across technical, operational, and executive roles.
We're looking for someone who takes candidate experience personally, loves a well-run process, and is energized by working at a company that's doing something genuinely hard and important.
