About Verita AI

Verita AI builds high-quality data pipelines and staffing services for frontier AI teams. We help partners scale technical teams quickly by running disciplined sourcing and candidate assessment workflows.

Job Overview

We’re hiring a Recruiter / Technical Sourcer (Sourcing-Only) to support our hiring pipeline. This role is 100% focused on sourcing and outreach—no offer negotiation, onboarding logistics, or HR administration.

You will identify, engage, and qualify candidates for technical roles (e.g., RL Environments Engineer, MLE, Research Engineer, Software Engineer), then hand off warm candidates to the hiring team with clean notes and evidence.

 

Engagement type: Full Time (via Verita AI)

Location: San Francisco

Time overlap: Prefer ≥4 hours overlap with PST (UTC-8)

Start: Immediate

 

Responsibilities (Sourcing-Only) Candidate discovery & outreach

  • Build targeted searches across LinkedIn, GitHub, Google Scholar, Twitter/X, specialized communities, and niche forums.
  • Source for profiles like: strong Python engineers, infra-minded ML engineers, RL/agents folks, CUDA/kernel engineers, and research-heavy candidates with public artifacts.
  • Run outbound messaging sequences (email + LinkedIn) and manage follow-ups.

Funnel management (top-of-funnel)

Run quick first-pass qualification (async or short screen) focused on:

  • Technical fit and seniority
  • Availability / timezone overlap
  • Communication quality
  • Contractor expectations
  • Package candidates for handoff with:
  • 3–6 bullet rationale
  • Links to proof (GitHub, papers, projects)
  • Comp expectations + availability
  • Any red flags / risks

Process & reporting

  • Maintain a clean tracker (Airtable/Sheets/ATS—whatever the team uses).
  • Weekly reporting on:
    • New prospects added
    • Outreach volume + response rate
    • Qualified candidates submitted
    • Stage conversion and bottlenecks

Confidentiality & compliance

Maintain strict confidentiality around:

  • Take-home assessments and materials
  • Internal hiring signals
  • Candidate lists and client info
  • Do not share assessment details publicly or with other clients.

Success Metrics (What “Good” Looks Like)

  • Consistent weekly output of high-signal candidates, not just volume.
  • Healthy outbound funnel benchmarks (rough targets; adjust as you learn):
    • 150–300 new prospects/week
    • 60–150 outreaches/week (depending on seniority targets)
    • 10–25 meaningful replies/week
    • 3–8 qualified candidates/week submitted (varies by role difficulty)
    • Clear, evidence-based candidate writeups that reduce hiring-manager load.

Requirements (Must-have=

  • 1–3+ years experience in technical sourcing or tech recruiting (agency or in-house).
  • Strong intuition for identifying engineering excellence using public artifacts:
    • GitHub repos, technical writing, papers, OSS contributions, competition history, etc.
  • Excellent written English (clear, concise outreach + candidate notes).
  • Highly organized: can run multiple role pipelines without dropping candidates.

Nice-to-have

  • Prior sourcing for ML/infra/RL/agents roles.
  • Familiarity with developer communities and where top technical talent hangs out.
  • Experience sourcing internationally (EU/India/LatAm) with timezone constraints.

Tools You’ll Use

  • LinkedIn Recruiter (or Sales Nav), GitHub, Scholar, Twitter/X
  • Tracker/ATS (Airtable, Greenhouse, Lever, Sheets—depending on setup)
  • Email sequencing tools (optional)

Compensation

100 - 130k, depending on seniority and output quality
