Description du poste

Normal Computing | Build with Us

Normal is an applied AI company solving the hardest problems in AI and silicon. We build foundational hardware and software for the semiconductor industry, critical AI infrastructure, and the broader systems that power our world, in partnership with the world's most advanced institutions. We work as one team across New York City, Silicon Valley (Mountain View), London, Copenhagen, and Seoul.

The Role

Recruiting for Normal is a specialist's craft several times over. AI/ML researchers, silicon hardware engineers, and sdk engineering. Each small candidate pools where every strong person is fielding multiple offers — and the people you're hunting can smell a recruiter who doesn't speak their language.

As a Technical Recruiter, you will own full-cycle recruiting across a broad range of Normal's roles: AI/ML research, software engineering, silicon hardware (architects, RTL and DV engineers, physical design, bring-up), and the G&A roles that keep a scaling company running.

You will partner directly with hiring managers who are themselves deep in their craft, source candidates who aren't looking, and close people who have every option. This is a seat on a small talent team where your searches directly determine whether a chip tapes out and a deployment ships on schedule.

What You'll Own

• Full-Cycle Recruiting: Manage the end-to-end recruitment process across AI/ML, silicon and ASIC, and software engineering roles from intake through close, flexing to G&A searches as priorities shift.
• Strategic Sourcing: Identify and engage top-tier talent across AI research, unconventional silicon architecture, design verification, and forward-deployed engineering: people who are rarely on the market and need a reason to talk.
• Hiring Manager Partnership: Act as a strategic partner to hiring managers across engineering, research, and business functions, aligning on candidate qualifications, technical bars, and calibration as searches evolve.
• Process Discipline: Run the WHO Method for talent calibration and maintain high-efficiency interview loops, targeting 4-5 rounds maximum so great candidates don't die in process.
• ATS Ownership: Maintain impeccable data hygiene and pipeline flow in Ashby: clean stages, honest statuses, reporting the team can trust.
• Brand Ambassadorship: Represent Normal Computing at industry events like DAC, engaging specialized candidates in the rooms where they actually gather.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting, including direct experience recruiting AI/ML, software, or semiconductor engineers: research, RTL, DV, physical design, architecture, or adjacent roles
• A track record of closing senior engineers against competing offers: you know how to sell equity, risk, and conviction, not just a comp number
• Technical literacy across the deep-tech landscape: AI/ML, AI silicon, and custom ASIC development — you can hold a credible intake conversation with a chip architect or an AI researcher
• Fluency in Ashby (or comparable ATS) for candidate tracking, reporting, and process automation
• Operational excellence: low ego, comfortable with ambiguity, and able to move real work forward at the volume of a scaling startup

Bonus Points

• Experience recruiting for unconventional computing or physics-based hardware architectures
• Experience recruiting G&A and business operations roles alongside technical searches
• Previous experience in a high-growth venture-backed startup, semiconductor company, or research lab
