Lead Technical Recruiter
About Origin
Origin (previously 10xConstruction) is building general-purpose autonomous robots for US construction to tackle rising costs, safety risks, and labour shortages. Our modular, multi-trade platform combines purpose-built hardware with real-time site intelligence to navigate complex environments and execute tasks with precision. Trained in high-fidelity simulation and already deployed on live sites, our robots deliver 5x faster execution, 250%+ margin expansion, and significant cost savings. Join India’s most talent-dense robotics team consisting of individuals from IITs, Stanford, UCLA, etc.
About the role
At Origin, we're building intelligent robotic systems that operate in the real world — and that starts with building an exceptional team. We're looking for a Lead Technical Recruiter who thrives in the deep end: someone who can hold a credible conversation about diffusion models, ROS2, and embedded control systems, and then turn that understanding into a targeted, high-quality talent pipeline.
This is a high-ownership role. You'll partner directly with engineering leads and founders to hire across a range of specialised functions — AI/ML, Robotics, Perception, Embedded Systems, and Backend Engineering.
Key Responsibilities
- Talent Sourcing & Recruitment:
- Own full-cycle recruiting for senior and specialist roles across AI/ML, Robotics, Embedded Systems, Perception, and Backend Engineering.
- Proactively source passive candidates via LinkedIn Recruiter, Naukri, Instahyre, GitHub, and research lab networks.
- Partner with hiring managers to deeply understand role requirements and calibrate on candidate profiles before sourcing begins.
- Candidate Relationship Management:
- Screen candidates with enough technical literacy to assess fitment independently — reducing noise for the engineering team.
- Manage end-to-end interview pipelines on Workable and drive offer negotiations, including ESOP conversations.
- Agency Management : Manage external agencies and vendors, holding them accountable to sourcing quality over volume.
- Analytics: Track recruiting metrics (pipeline health, source quality, time-to-offer) and use data to improve continuously.
Required Qualifications and Skills
- Previously worked at a Seed/Series A startup as a TA
- 4–6 years of technical recruiting experience, with a significant portion of hiring for AI/ML, robotics, embedded systems, or adjacent deep-tech domains
- A bachelor’s Degree in Tech/Engineering or a relevant stream is a big plus
- Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field.
- Proven ability to source and close passive candidates in niche engineering disciplines.
- Technical literacy sufficient to evaluate a resume and conduct a first-level screen without a hiring manager present.
- Hands-on experience with LinkedIn Recruiter, Naukri, Instahyre, and an ATS (Workable preferred).
- Strong communicator, able to represent Origin credibly to senior engineers and researchers.
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, early-stage environment with high ownership and shifting priorities.
- Analytical mindset with the ability to use data to drive decision-making and process improvements
Preferred Experiences
- Prior in-house recruiting at a deep-tech startup, robotics company, or AI research lab.
- Familiarity with roles involving ROS/ROS2, PyTorch, SLAM, and computer vision
- Experience building recruiting processes — structured interviews, scorecards, sourcing playbooks.
- Exposure to academic hiring pipelines: IITs, IISc, IIIT-H, and equivalent institutions.
- Prior experience managing external recruitment vendors, including setting SLAs and evaluating output quality.
