Technical Recruiter, Infrastructure

Technical Recruiter owning full lifecycle hiring for Anthropic's Infrastructure organization. Requires deep recruiting experience in technical infrastructure/platform teams, ability to evaluate candidates on Kubernetes, networking, systems languages, and strong partnership with hiring managers.

About the job

Key Responsibilities

  • Own full lifecycle recruiting for a portfolio of roles across the Infrastructure organization, from intake through offer and close.
  • Run structured intakes with infrastructure hiring managers, translating ambiguous needs into scoped requirements, calibrated bars, and search strategies.
  • Build and maintain pipelines of specialized infrastructure talent, with an emphasis on passive candidates.
  • Refine infrastructure interview loops, take-home assignments, and scorecards alongside hiring managers, your recruiting counterparts, and Recruiting Operations.
  • Develop deep domain knowledge aligned with the teams you support, so you can identify niche talent with the right specific domain fit.
  • Advise hiring managers with market data and candid calibration feedback, and influence decisions through credibility rather than volume.
  • Partner with Compensation, People Partners, and Mobility to structure equitable offers and guide candidates to close.
  • Handle sensitive role and candidate information with discretion, including for searches whose scope is confidential.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Deep full lifecycle recruiting experience, with substantial time supporting infrastructure, platform, or comparably technical engineering organizations.
  • Ability to hold a substantive technical conversation about infrastructure domains such as Kubernetes and container orchestration, cloud networking, cluster networking, and systems languages, and to evaluate technical qualifications rather than match keywords.
  • Proficiency with an applicant tracking system like Greenhouse and other modern sourcing tools.
  • Experience partnering directly with hiring managers on intake, bar calibration, and interview loop design.
  • Sound independent judgment on candidate quality, and the ability to independently partner with multiple hiring managers on complex searches.
  • A strong sense of ownership over your work, and the adaptability to adjust as priorities and hiring needs shift.
  • Genuine interest in Anthropic's mission and in the role a strong infrastructure function plays in achieving it.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience recruiting at a high-growth technology, AI, or machine learning company.
  • Working knowledge of the infrastructure and platform talent landscape, including where strong large-scale ML training and systems infrastructure talent tends to come from.
  • Experience hiring for hyperscale cluster infrastructure, research and platform infrastructure, privacy infrastructure, or sandboxing and isolation engineering.
  • Experience improving recruiting processes, market maps, or interview architecture where they were thin or absent.
  • Comfort using LLMs to accelerate sourcing, research, and market mapping.

Compensation & Logistics

  • Annual Salary: $240,000–$295,000 USD
  • Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience.
  • Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
