Role
Who you are
- 5-8 years of full-cycle technical recruiting, including meaningful time hiring infrastructure, platform, SRE, or platform engineers
- Experience in a high-growth startup or scale-up where speed and quality both mattered
- A track record of hiring senior and Staff-level engineers, including passive candidates you sourced yourself
- Enough technical fluency to have credible conversations about infra work: you can tell a platform engineer from an SRE, and a database specialist from a distributed systems generalist, and you can pitch each one's problems at Harvey
- Strong relationships with hiring managers, who treat you as a partner rather than an order-taker
- Comfort with data. You use metrics to diagnose problems and influence decisions
- You follow the infra and AI talent market: which companies are growing, which are shrinking, and where top engineers want to go next
- Low ego and high ownership. You'll roll up your sleeves to get the team built
- Nice to have: experience recruiting for AI/ML infrastructure or model serving teams, security or compliance-heavy environments, or distributed engineering teams across multiple locations
What the job involves
- You'll be a dedicated recruiting partner for Harvey's Infrastructure and Platform organization, covering Core Infrastructure, Model Infrastructure, Database Infrastructure, Backend Platform
- This is a full-cycle role where you'll own the process from market mapping and sourcing through closing, working with engineering leaders to hire engineers and managers from Mid-level to Staff
- Partner with Infra and Platform leaders to turn roadmap priorities into a clear hiring plan: which roles, which profiles, in what order
- Build and maintain pipelines across infra specialties: distributed systems, cloud (AWS/Azure), Kubernetes, databases/Postgres, SRE and reliability, ML/model serving, and security
- Map talent at the companies that have solved infra at scale (hyperscalers, AI labs, and high-growth infra and data companies) and run targeted outreach to passive senior and Staff+ engineers
- Advise hiring managers on the infra talent market, including comp, competing offers, level calibration, and what these candidates look for in their next role
- Run a high-signal, candidate-first process for technical loops (system design, deep dives, on-call and reliability scenarios), and keep interviewers calibrated and moving quickly
- Close competitive candidates by telling a clear story about Harvey's infra problems, their scope, and why they matter
- Keep Ashby clean and use pipeline data (conversion, time in stage, source quality) to change course when something isn't working
- Improve how we hire infra talent: interview plans, sourcing playbooks, referral programs, and events
Our take
The explosive popularity of generative AI tools has seen specialized solutions popping up for all kinds of industries. Hoping to help supercharge efficiency and productivity for legal teams, Harvey supplies generative AI that can assist with documentation, as well as aid research and optimize workflows.
Via natural language instructions, Harvey helps draft and analyze legal documents. It can also answer complex questions across large document sets, or even handle research queries that cover multiple domains in legal, regulatory and tax.
Its ability to support legal practitioners as if it's another member of the team is what makes Harvey particularly interesting. This approach has seen the company raise substantial funding, reaching Unicorn status in 2024. Funds are now being used to expand to new geographies, grow headcount and further collect and curate data to train more “domain-specific” AI models.
