What they're looking for
- 4+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, with a track record of hiring for infrastructure, platform, or systems engineering roles
- Ability to hold a substantive technical conversation about infrastructure domains such as distributed systems, cluster or cloud networking, container orchestration, and systems languages
- Experience partnering directly with hiring managers on intake, bar calibration, and interview loop design
- Sound independent judgment on candidate quality, and the ability to manage multiple concurrent searches with minimal oversight
- Experience recruiting at a high-growth AI, machine learning, or infrastructure-focused technology company
- Proficiency with an applicant tracking system (e.g., Greenhouse or Ashby) and modern sourcing tools
More about this role
The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it.
We're hiring a Technical Recruiter, to lead full-cycle recruiting for the infrastructure eams building and operating the systems behind our frontier model training and Tinker's platform - including cluster and network engineering, distributed systems, and site reliability. You'll partner closely with infrastructure leaders and engineers to understand niche hiring needs and translate them into sourcing strategies, calibrated interview loops, and craft a closing process that lands top candidates in a competitive market.
This is a high-ownership role at a company where infrastructure is the foundation of everything we ship. You'll need to go deep enough on distributed training, networking, and cluster orchestration to evaluate technical signal yourself, not just pattern-match keywords, and to speak credibly with the engineers you're recruiting.
