Senior Technical Recruiter (Energy Infrastructure Startup)

A well-funded Series A energy startup that supplies power infrastructure for AI data centers is building its founding talent team in San Francisco. The recruiter hired here will run hiring for the local R&D group and work closely with the founders and engineering leaders.

Scope

• Manage the full hiring cycle, from first outreach through signed acceptance, of engineers across robotics, hardware and software at the local R&D site
• Develop outbound pipelines of engineers who are not actively looking, since the people sought are seldom job hunting
• Advise the CTO along with engineering managers as a dependable partner while headcount needs shift quickly
• Close candidates who hold competing offers using inventive tactics, for example site visits and events
• Serve as the first contact candidates have with the company, setting the tone for the whole experience

What you bring

• Six to ten years of recruiting, including at least four years getting offers accepted
• First-hand experience recruiting robotics, hardware, electrical, mechanical and software talent
• A history of filling senior robotics and mechatronics positions
• Time at a startup or other high-intensity company, rather than purely large technology firms
• An established network among Bay Area engineers
• Clear, confident communication with senior engineering leaders and co-founders
• Experience in energy, defense or manufacturing is a plus

On-site in the San Francisco Bay Area, and candidates need to be local. Unable to sponsor or transfer visas, so US work authorization is required.
