About the role
Genesis is a physical AI research lab and full-stack robotics company building a universal robotics foundation model. This role focuses on sourcing elite researchers and engineers, shaping the hiring funnel, and building scalable sourcing systems to attract top talent.
Responsibilities
- Finding the people no one else can. Source elite Research Scientist, SWE, and Robotics/infra candidates who aren't on the market and have no reason to leave their current lab. Until your message lands.
- Sourcing where the best actually are. Papers, GitHub, conferences, citation graphs, communities, networks, not job-board spray.
- Outreach people answer. Write personalized, credible outreach that earns replies from senior researchers and engineers who ignore recruiters.
- Building pipeline that converts. Map markets, build target lists, and keep healthy, calibrated pipelines moving for every active search. Hand recruiters and hiring managers candidates worth their time.
- Building the machine. Stand up scalable, well-organized sourcing in Ashby, and automate the parts that don't need a human (list building, enrichment, sequencing) so you spend your time on judgment and outreach.
Qualifications
- Sourced senior, hard-to-win technical talent (engineering, AI/ML, or research) in a competitive market, with proven response rates.
- Ability to read technical profiles and distinguish signal from noise: identify impactful papers, genuine GitHub activity, and exceptional talent.
- Ability to craft outreach that sounds human and well-researched, not boilerplate.
- Systems thinking and automation mindset: build AI workflows to reduce repetitive searches.
- Self-starter with ability to bring structure to ambiguity and move fast without compromising quality.
- Strong data literacy: interpret response rates, pipeline health, and search bottlenecks.
