Job Description

About us

FieldAI’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-only architectures, combining rigorous engineering with learning systems proven in globally deployed solutions that deliver results today and get better every time our robots run in the field.

About the Role

We're looking for a Technical Recruiter (Fixed-Term) to help scale our engineering organization during a period of rapid growth. You'll own full-cycle recruiting across technical and business roles, partnering closely with hiring managers to deliver exceptional talent quickly. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced startup environments and enjoys building high-quality teams with urgency.

What You'll Do

    Own Full-Cycle Recruiting

  • Manage recruiting from kickoff through offer acceptance across technical and business functions.
  • Partner with hiring managers to define hiring needs and drive recruiting strategy.
  • Source and engage top talent using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, GitHub, and other sourcing tools.
  • Build and manage high-quality candidate pipelines for hard-to-fill roles.
  • Conduct recruiter screens and manage candidates through the interview process.
  • Partner with leadership on offer development and negotiations.
  • Maintain accurate ATS data, recruiting metrics, and hiring reports.

    • Drive Hiring Excellence

  • Deliver a fast, organized, and high-quality candidate experience.
  • Identify process improvements that increase hiring speed and efficiency.
  • Act as a trusted recruiting partner to hiring managers while balancing quality and urgency.
  • Represent Field AI's mission and attract top technical talent.

What You Have

  • Minimum of 3-4 years of full-cycle recruiting experience.
  • Experience recruiting software, robotics, AI, autonomy, or other engineering talent.
  • Experience in high-growth startups, recruiting agencies, or both.
  • Strong sourcing skills using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, GitHub, Stack Overflow, and similar platforms.
  • Proven success hiring passive candidates and filling difficult technical roles.
  • Experience managing multiple high-priority requisitions simultaneously.
  • Strong stakeholder management, negotiation, and communication skills.
  • Experience with ATS platforms such as Lever, Greenhouse, or Workday.
  • Comfortable working independently in a fast-moving, ambiguous startup environment.

The Extras That Sets You Apart

  • Experience recruiting for robotics, autonomous systems, construction, mining, industrial technology, or energy.
  • Experience hiring executive, technical, and field-based talent.
  • Strong understanding of recruiting metrics and pipeline management.

We Encourage You to Apply If You

  • Have experience in a high-growth startup.
  • Come from a technical recruiting agency and want to bring that pace and sourcing expertise in-house.
  • Enjoy building teams quickly while maintaining a high hiring bar.
This is a fixed-term position with an immediate business need. We are looking for someone who can start immediately. This role may evolve into a full-time role in the future depending on business need.

Field AI Onsite Work Philosophy

At Field AI, we believe the most effective way to collaborate and solve complex challenges is by working together in person. This is a fully onsite role, and candidates will be expected to work from our Irvine, CA office. In-person engagement is essential to our success, and we offer flexible working hours to support focus and work-life balance.

We are dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace and encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply.

Why Join FieldAI in Irvine?
In Irvine, you will work where the robots are. Our local team builds and tests systems on real hardware with real sensors, then ships them to operate in unstructured, previously unknown environments around the world. We are solving one of robotics’ hardest challenges: reliable deployment outside the lab. Our Field Foundational Models™ raise the bar for perception, planning, localization, and manipulation, with an emphasis on explainability and safety for real-world use.
You will collaborate with a world-class team that thrives on creativity, resilience, and bold thinking. We bring deep experience from organizations such as DeepMind, NASA JPL, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, Amazon, Tesla Autopilot, Cruise, Zoox, Toyota Research Institute, and SpaceX, along with a track record of field deployments and strong performance in DARPA challenge segments.
Be Part of the Next Robotics Revolution
We are looking for builders who want their work to leave the whiteboard and show up on robots. If you enjoy tackling tough, uncharted questions and working across disciplines, you will find your people here. Our teams span AI, software, robotics engineering, product, field deployment, and technical communication, all focused on shipping systems that perform in the real world.
Our headquarters is in Irvine, and we partner closely with teams there as well as colleagues across the US and around the world. Join us in Southern California and help define what dependable, field-ready autonomy looks like.
We value diverse perspectives and are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace. We evaluate candidates and employees based on merit, qualifications, and performance, and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, national origin, ethnicity, veteran status, disability status, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, or any other legally protected status
