ABOUT THE ROLE

At Bright Machines, we’re transforming the way things are made — combining software, robotics, and automation to revolutionize manufacturing. As we grow, we’re looking for a proactive and mission-driven Talent Acquisition Partner to help us build the teams that power our innovation.

This is a full-cycle recruiting role where you’ll own searches from start to finish, work closely with hiring managers, and ensure a smooth, efficient, and engaging candidate experience. We’re seeking someone who understands the unique dynamics of hiring in robotics, automation, and manufacturing environments — and who’s excited to roll up their sleeves and help scale our hiring function as we grow.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:
• Own full-cycle recruiting for key roles across all functions including engineering, and operations.
• Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements, hiring plans, and interview processes
• Source candidates through proactive outreach, referrals, and creative search strategies
• Conduct phone screens, manage candidate relationships, and drive an excellent candidate experience
• Schedule interviews and support coordination needs as we grow our talent team
• Track hiring metrics and pipeline health in our ATS (Lever) and share monthly reporting with hiring teams and leadership
• Collaborate with the rest of the HR team and marketing team on employer branding and candidate communications
• Continuously seek to improve and automate our recruiting processes, documentation, and tools
• Contribute to broader People Team initiatives that may including onboarding and employee experience as we are a small and might team, but plan to grow in the future.

WHAT WE WANT TO SEE:
• 3+ years of experience in recruiting, coordination, or HR roles preferably in a startup environment
• Familiarity with ATS tools (Lever experience is a strong plus)
• Experience using Linkedin or similar tools for sourcing candidates
• Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• A proactive, solutions-oriented mindset with the confidence to drive improvements
• Passion for creating a thoughtful, human-centered candidate experience
• Curiosity and flexibility—you enjoy learning, adapting, and contributing in a growing environment

IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU HAD:
• Experience recruiting for Robotics, Manufacturing and Software Engineering
• Experience working within global teams and recruiting outside the US
