Blaze Talent is seeking a Senior Contract Technical Recruiter with deep expertise in network and infrastructure hiring to support a confidential, high-growth client operating in the AI infrastructure and data center space. This is a fully embedded RPO engagement, partnering closely with technical leadership to scale the core systems that power next-generation AI platforms.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of hiring across network engineering, distributed infrastructure, and high-performance computing environments, working directly with senior engineering stakeholders to attract and secure highly specialized talent.



What You’ll Do




Partner with Infrastructure & Network Leadership


  • Collaborate closely with Engineering Managers, Directors, and VPs across network, systems, and platform teams.
  • Lead intake sessions to deeply understand network architecture needs (e.g., low-latency systems, high-throughput environments, data center networking).
  • Advise stakeholders on market conditions, talent availability, and competitive hiring strategies within niche infrastructure domains.



Own Full-Cycle Recruiting for Network & Infrastructure Roles


Lead end-to-end recruiting for roles such as:

    • Network Engineers (DC networking, backbone, edge)
    • Network SRE / Infrastructure SRE
    • Systems & Infrastructure Engineers
    • Distributed Systems Engineers
    • HPC / GPU networking specialists (RDMA, InfiniBand, etc.)
  • Manage sourcing, outreach, technical screening, interview coordination, and offer processes.



Build Targeted, High-Quality Talent Pipelines


Develop proactive sourcing strategies focused on networking and infrastructure talent across:

    • LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, and niche engineering communities
    • Open-source projects, networking forums, and performance engineering circles
  • Execute advanced boolean searches and pattern recognition to identify hard-to-reach candidates with experience in large-scale, latency-sensitive environments.



Drive a High-Precision Recruiting Process


  • Maintain strong ownership over pipeline health, candidate experience, and stakeholder communication.
  • Ensure tight feedback loops and alignment across interview panels.
  • Keep ATS data clean, structured, and actionable (Ashby preferred).



Improve Recruiting Efficiency & Impact


  • Identify process gaps and recommend improvements to accelerate hiring velocity without sacrificing quality.
  • Operate as a strategic partner, balancing Blaze Talent’s high-touch delivery with the client’s aggressive scaling goals.



About You


5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience, with strong exposure to network, infrastructure, or systems engineering roles.
Proven track record hiring for:

    • Network engineering (data center, backbone, cloud networking)
    • SRE / infrastructure roles
    • Distributed systems or performance-critical environments
  • Experience supporting high-growth, infrastructure-heavy organizations (cloud, AI, data center, or deep tech).
  • Advanced sourcing skills, including boolean expertise and familiarity with tools like LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, and modern ATS platforms (Ashby a plus).
  • Ability to engage credibly with senior technical stakeholders on networking and infrastructure topics.
  • Highly organized, self-directed, and comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments.
  • Strong communication and relationship management skills with both candidates and hiring teams.
  • Fully remote-ready with reliable equipment and internet.
  • Availability during U.S. business hours (PST preferred).



Compensation


  • $50–$90/hour
  • 6-month contract with potential for full-time conversion
