Member of Recruiting Staff - Technical Recruiter

Liquid AI, a San Francisco based innovator in its field, is seeking a full-cycle Technical Recruiter to own hiring across engineering, research, product, solutions architecture, go-to-market, and general and administrative teams. The role centers on partnering with leaders to design new roles, running on-site interview processes in person, and closing senior and executive hires, with a strong emphasis on face-to-face collaboration in San Francisco.

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle hiring as the in-person anchor in San Francisco, leading on-sites and closing senior and executive hires face-to-face.
• Coach stakeholders and partner with senior leaders and the C-suite to define brand-new roles before they kick off.
• Identify the best talent by going beyond LinkedIn and building evidence for why a candidate is the best fit, not just available.
• Build rigorous, role-specific evaluation from scratch: define what 'good' looks like, assess the attributes and values that predict success, and make the process itself a reason candidates want to join.
• Win and close the candidates that matter, and prioritize ruthlessly: sharpen the value proposition, read the data to unblock stalled searches, and gather market intel.
• Close the loop on quality and run a clean operation: measure quality of hire and conduct look-backs, keep Ashby data reportable, document the process in Notion, and use AI-enabled workflows to move faster.

Requirements

• Operates as a talent partner, not just a recruiter: success is measured by business impact, not seats filled.
• Builds in ambiguity: energized by undefined problems and creates structure where there is none.
• Thinks strategically and proactively: uses data to anticipate stalls and unblock searches before they arise.
• Prioritizes ruthlessly: excels in a high-noise environment and protects time to maximize leverage.
• Brings genuine passion for the craft: eager to learn and grow, with a trajectory toward broader strategic scope.
• Runs autonomously with high agency: thrives with minimal supervision while welcoming mentorship to stretch capabilities.

Technologies

• Ashby
• Notion

Benefits

• Real ownership and mentorship
• Competitive base salary with equity
• Health insurance premiums paid for employees and dependents (medical, dental, and vision)
• 401(k) matching up to 4%
