<p> </p> <p><strong>About the Company:</strong></p> <p>General Matter enriches uranium.<br>We are designing, building, and operating the world's lowest-cost enrichment services, here in the US.<br>In the process, we are restoring America's ability to produce nuclear fuel to power AI, advanced manufacturing and critical industries our country relies on to remain competitive.<br>Fuel drives the cost of advanced reactor electricity production, and enrichment drives the cost of the fuel that advanced reactors consume. Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way.<br>Our mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable. We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society.<br>We were incubated inside Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by over a dozen of the world's top venture capital firms.<br>Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.<br>We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency.<br>Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable.</p> <p></p> <h4>About This Role</h4> <p>America is building its next uranium enrichment facility, and the people we hire in the next few years will decide whether it gets built. As a Technical Recruiter at General Matter, you'll find, win, and close the engineers, builders, and operators behind it.</p> <p>You'll join a lean, high-impact talent acquisition team and own full-cycle recruiting for interdisciplinary roles across the company, including mechanical engineering, hardware design, test, manufacturing, construction, nuclear engineering, and supply chain. Every step is yours: intake, sourcing, screening, and closing. You'll work directly with engineering leaders, and your judgment on who is exceptional will shape the company.</p> <p>We are building a team that has not only launched products, but launched entire industries across nuclear, space, defense, and finance. If you've recruited hardware engineers in aerospace, defense, or other hard-tech environments, this role puts that experience to work on a mission of national importance.</p> <p>If you enjoy Skunkworks-style projects, value autonomy and ownership, and are passionate about building world-class engineering teams, we encourage you to apply to join our team.</p> <p>We are open to multiple experience levels. We care about capability, drive, and impact more than years of experience, and scope and responsibility will be commensurate with experience.</p> <h4>Responsibilities</h4> <ul> <li>Own full-cycle technical recruiting for hardware engineering, manufacturing, and operational roles, from intake to close.</li> <li>Act as a key business partner to engineering leaders and hiring managers, including: <ul> <li>Provide market insight and quickly calibrate on what top talent looks like for each role.</li> <li>Refine interview processes to drive strong hiring outcomes.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Design and run sourcing strategies for mechanical, hardware, and manufacturing talent that go beyond Boolean searches, including events, networking, and other creative approaches.</li> <li>Conduct initial interviews that assess technical ability, excellence, and cultural alignment, with strong interview-to-offer results.</li> <li>Deliver a candidate experience that reflects General Matter's mission and high-performance culture.</li> <li>Track and analyze recruiting metrics, and use them to improve our process and drive operational excellence.</li> </ul> <h4>Basic Qualifications</h4> <ul> <li>Bachelor's degree and 2+ years of recruiting experience (academic, internships, and extracurriculars at university level qualify); OR associate degree and 3+ years of experience; OR 4+ years of professional recruiting experience in lieu of a degree.</li> <li>Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence, negotiate, and clearly explain value to both candidates and hiring teams.</li> <li>Proven ability to manage multiple competing priorities with autonomy.</li> <li>A high bar for personal accountability, consistently delivering quality results with speed, ownership, and attention to detail.</li> <li>Strong judgment and discretion when handling sensitive information and advising on hiring decisions.</li> </ul> <h4>Preferred Skills and Experience</h4> <ul> <li>Experience recruiting mechanical and hardware engineers (e.g., design, structures, propulsion, manufacturing, test, and integration) at high-growth aerospace, defense, space, automotive, or other hard-tech companies, either in-house or at an agency.</li> <li>Full-lifecycle recruiting experience, from sourcing to close.</li> <li>Success hiring for highly specialized or niche roles such as building architects, chemical engineers, nuclear licensing engineers, or other technical experts.</li> <li>Ability to tell the top 50% from the top 5% of talent in their field.</li> <li>Expertise in non-standard recruiting methods: cold calling candidates and companies, organizing networking events, identifying industry experts, and building targeted sourcing campaigns.</li> <li>Deep motivation to restore U.S. fuel enrichment capability and strengthen national energy security.</li> </ul> <p><strong>A
