About Snorkel
At Snorkel, we believe meaningful AI doesn’t start with the model, it starts with the data.
We’re on a mission to help enterprises transform expert knowledge into specialized AI at scale. The AI landscape has gone through incredible changes since 2015, when Snorkel started as a research project in the Stanford AI Lab, to the generative AI breakthroughs of today. But one thing has remained constant: the data you use to build AI is the key to achieving differentiation, high performance, and production-ready systems. We work with some of the world’s largest organizations to empower scientists, engineers, financial experts, product creators, journalists, and more to build custom AI with their data faster than ever before. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler!
About the Role
Snorkel AI is looking for a Director of Technical Recruiting to build and lead the technical recruiting engine that will support our next stage of growth. This leader will own the strategy, team, operating model, and execution required to hire exceptional talent across Engineering, Research, Product, Forward Deployed Engineering, and Applied AI Engineering.
This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who has built and scaled technical recruiting teams in hyper-growth startup environments, ideally from roughly 100 to 1,000 employees. We are looking for a builder: someone who knows how to design a recruiting function from the ground up, develop a high-performing team, partner deeply with technical leaders, and compete creatively for scarce talent in one of the most competitive markets in the world.
The ideal candidate has operated in the Bay Area technical talent market, understands the pace and ambiguity of high-growth startups, and brings strong instincts for hiring in AI, infrastructure, data, machine learning, developer tools, or other deeply technical domains.
