ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Artera is seeking a Technical Recruiter and Site Lead who thrives in two modes: as a strategic, relationship driver who excels at hiring great AI and technical talent, and as the hands-on builder of a workplace people love showing up to.
You'll spend about 70% of your time driving full-cycle technical recruiting across AI, engineering, product, and related functions, and the remaining 30% serving as the anchor of our Seattle office — shaping the local employee experience, running engagement programming, and keeping our space running smoothly.
You will also be the face of Artera in Seattle. This is a role for someone who doesn't want to choose between recruiting and people ops — you’ll get to do both well, own a geography, and build a meaningful presence as we launch our next physical hub in Seattle, where we've been growing a remote team for over a year. You will report to the SVP of People to align with our broader talent and people programs, and work closely with our CTO (also Seattle-based) on hiring strategy and local culture, giving you visibility into both the talent strategy and the organization you're hiring for.
Responsibilities
Technical Recruiting
Full Cycle Recruiting and Candidate Experience: Own full-cycle talent acquisition for technical roles — sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer negotiation, and close — ensuring all candidates have an excellent experience throughout the process, regardless of the final outcome.
AI Talent Sourcing: Build and execute sourcing strategies for AI-forward talent in a highly competitive market
Stakeholder Partnerships: Partner with hiring managers, the CTO, and other senior leadership members to scope roles, calibrate on bar, and build efficient interview loops
Pipeline Development: Maintain active talent pipelines in the Seattle AI/tech market
ATS Hygiene: Use Lever to keep candidate data, communications, and reporting tight
Recruiting Analytics: Bring a data-informed lens to activities like pipeline health, conversion rates, and time-to-hire
Artera Brand Representative: Represent Artera's mission and AI-forward culture compellingly to candidates
Seattle Site Lead
Office Operations: Own day-to-day operations of the Seattle office — vendor relationships, space management, supplies, safety
Local Engagement & Events: Plan and execute local employee engagement: team events, celebrations, and in-office experiences that reinforce our values
Employee Experience: Serve as the local point person for Seattle employees — their go-to for office questions, new hire onboarding experience, and in-person culture
People Team Partnership: Partner with the broader People team on company-wide initiatives that land locally
Visitor Experience: Help visiting employees, candidates, and leaders have a great experience when they're in the Seattle office
Requirements
Tenure & Track Record: 5+ years of experience, with a strong track record in technical recruiting (in-house preferred; agency background welcome if paired with in-house experience)
AI Recruiting Expertise: Proven experience recruiting AI talent — research scientists, ML engineers, applied AI engineers, or similar — in a competitive market
Technical Hiring Breadth: Demonstrated success hiring software engineers and technical talent broadly
ATS Fluency: Experience with modern ATS platforms (Lever a plus)
AI-Native Workflow: Daily hands-on use of AI tools to improve workflows (Claude Code or similar)
Site & Event Operations: Event planning or office/site management experience — whether formal or picked up along the way
Self Directed Operator: Comfort operating with autonomy; you don't need a playbook to get started, but you know when to ask
Culture Builder: Genuine interest in culture-building — you see engagement work as a craft, not a chore
Trusted Partner: Excellent judgment, discretion, and communication skills
Onsite Commitment: Ability to be onsite in Seattle 5 days per week (this role is in-person by design with flexibility as needed)
Bonus
Experience at a growth-stage AI company
Background supporting a satellite office or distributed team
Exposure to tools in our stack: Rippling, Pave
