About LlamaIndex

LlamaIndex is building the document infrastructure layer for AI agents- from industry-leading document OCR with LlamaParse to workflow products that help enterprises automate knowledge work over documents.

We're growing quickly, and hiring is one of the highest-leverage things we do.

About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Technical Recruiter to own hiring end-to-end across some of our most important roles.

Your primary focus will be technical hiring across AI/ML, infrastructure, full-stack engineering, and developer tools, with secondary coverage across GTM and marketing as we scale.

This is an execution-heavy role for someone who gets energy from sourcing, screening, calibrating, closing, and keeping candidates moving. It is not a pure strategy or management-track role. You should be excited to turn ambiguous hiring needs into calibrated searches, strong candidate slates, and signed offers quickly.

You should also know how to use AI-powered recruiting tools thoughtfully- using them to increase speed and reach without letting automation compromise quality.

What You'll Do

• Own full-cycle recruiting for primarily technical roles, from search strategy and sourcing through offer negotiation and close.
• Build a strong understanding of our products, technical stack, and culture so you can assess candidates accurately and represent LlamaIndex well in the market.
• Source exceptional candidates through direct outreach, LinkedIn Recruiter, AI-powered sourcing tools, referrals, open-source communities, and other creative channels.
• Partner closely with hiring managers to define requirements, calibrate on profiles, run high-signal interview loops, and keep candidates moving as priorities shift.
• Deliver high-quality candidate slates with strong judgment around technical depth, motivation, trajectory, and fit.
• Use AI recruiting tools responsibly by tuning filters, reviewing output carefully, and optimizing for quality over volume.
• Track pipeline metrics, surface bottlenecks, and iterate on sourcing strategies to hit hiring goals.
• Own candidate experience from first touchpoint through close, ensuring every interaction reflects LlamaIndex's brand and values.

What We're Looking For

• 2+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally in a high-growth startup or technical recruiting environment.
• A strong track record hiring technical talent across AI/ML, infrastructure, platform engineering, full-stack engineering, or developer tools.
• Strong sourcing ability, with the creativity and persistence to find and engage passive candidates in competitive markets.
• The ability to go deep quickly on unfamiliar technical domains and build credibility with hiring managers and candidates.
• Strong talent judgment, with the ability to deliver high-precision slates and reduce calibration cycles.
• Hands-on fluency with modern sourcing and AI recruiting tools, with good judgment around quality, signal, and automation.
• High ownership, speed, follow-through, and communication skills.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with the AI/ML ecosystem, open-source developer communities, or developer tools.
• Experience supporting GTM, marketing, or non-technical hiring in addition to technical roles.
• Experience coordinating with external agencies or recruiting vendors.

Location

This role is in-person at our downtown San Francisco office.

Having our recruiter on-site matters. You'll need to understand our culture firsthand, stay close to the teams you're hiring for, meet candidates who visit the office, and build trust with hiring managers in real time.

Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
