Executive Recruiter (AI/ML & Semiconductor)

We are looking for ambitious, highly motivated, and naturally curious individuals who are ready to launch a high-impact career with accelerated financial and professional upside. As an Executive Search Recruiter, you will be entrusted with meaningful responsibilities from the outset, including building candidate pipelines, executing full-cycle search engagements, and collaborating closely with firm leadership. This role provides unparalleled exposure to business decision-making at the highest levels across the semiconductor, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and broader technology ecosystem.

*Note on Naturally Curious*

This means that in any setting you enter, you genuinely want to understand more about what is happening and who is involved. You ask thoughtful questions, even when others might hesitate, because learning is your default mode. In both professional and personal interactions, you go beyond surface-level exchanges to understand people, ideas, and situations more deeply. You feel most engaged and effective when you are actively learning about the people and environment around you.

• Ownership mindset from day one: High-performing Associates are eligible for equity tied to company revenue and growth , an uncommon opportunity for early-career professionals.
• Real-world prestige: Executive search is one of the most challenging and rewarding business careers. Those who master it become trusted advisors at the highest levels of industry.

What We Look For

• Natural Curiosity within all interactions
• Determination and perseverance in connecting with people and recognizing a "no response" as a challenge, not a barrier.
• A bachelor’s degree/advanced degree is preferred but may not be required if there is SDR/BDR/CSR experience or other semiconductor/AI/ML recruiting/sales experience in your past.
• A genuine interest in technology and talent markets, specifically Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), or Semiconductor/Hardware.
