Job Summary
We’re seeking a Technical Recruiter to own full-cycle hiring as we scale the data hyperscaler for Physical AI. This is an IC seat, not Head of Talent / VP. You will source, screen, and close engineers, researchers, operators, and Shenzhen hardware people, and you will leave fingerprints on how we hire: pipelines, structured loops, and candidate experience.
Key Responsibilities
- Own requisitions end-to-end: source, screen, run structured interview loops, lead debriefs, and close with hiring managers and leadership
- Source in places most recruiters skip: GitHub, arXiv and workshop papers, factory and hardware networks in Shenzhen, conference speaker lists - not only LinkedIn
- Partner with hiring managers to write JDs, define the bar, and keep interview signal high across software, research, data, ops, and collection hardware
- Keep Ashby clean: pipeline hygiene, scorecards, time-to-offer, and a candidate experience that matches the company
- Track funnel metrics and fix the process when a loop is slow or a bar is fuzzy
- Represent Build: why someone should bet a career on in-the-wild physical labor data, not another lab license
You May Be a Good Fit If You Have (Must-have Qualifications)
- 2+ years recruiting technical talent in a competitive market (startup or technology company)
- Track record sourcing and placing software, research, data, or hardware-adjacent people
- You can evaluate technical depth and fit without faking the conversation
- You operate independently in ambiguity and will build systems, not wait for a playbook
- Familiarity with an ATS (Ashby or similar) and sourcing platforms
Strong Candidates May Also Have Experience with
- You’ve hired in AI, robotics, hardware, or another niche where the best people are not on job boards
- Experience recruiting across the US and China, or comfort working with Shenzhen hiring managers
- A track record of closing candidates who had competing offers from labs or larger companies
Benefits
- Competitive pay
- Medical, dental, and vision packages with generous premium coverage
- $500 per month credit for waiving medical benefits
- Housing subsidy of $2k per month for those living within walking distance of the office
- Relocation support for those moving to San Francisco (Financial District) or Shenzhen (Nanshan)
- Various wellness benefits covering fitness, mental health, and more
- Daily lunch and dinner in our office
- Unlimited compute budget subject to ROI justification
- Unlimited Codex and Claude credits
- Travel
