About FlexionAt Flexion, we're building the intelligence layer powering the next generation of humanoid robots. Our mission is to accelerate the transition from fragile prototypes to real-world humanoid deployment. We are founded by leading scientists in robot reinforcement learning (ex-Nvidia, ex-ETH Zürich), and backed by leading international VC firms. In just months, we’ve gone from our first line of code to deploying real humanoid capabilities.The RoleWe are looking for a Talent Acquisition Partner to own and scale our technical hiring engine. You will work closely with the founders and leadership to define role profiles, build high-caliber pipelines for niche robotics and engineering roles, and design and execute the recruiting processes that will support our next stages of growth. This is a highly crucial, hands-on role with real influence over how we build our team and culture.Key Responsibilities
  • Own and execute end-to-end recruitment for technical roles (core robotics engineering, control and motion systems, perception and sensing, and applied machine learning, among many more).
  • Build in collaboration with the team the Flexion Employer Brand, and represent it both internally and externally
  • Proactively source candidates through multiple channels (direct outreach, referrals, events, online platforms, and networks) and keep a steady flow of high-quality talent entering the pipeline.
  • Conduct initial screening calls and interviews to assess skills, experience, and fit, and ensure the movement of candidates efficiently through each stage of the process.
  • Coordinate and schedule interviews with hiring managers and panels, ensuring a smooth and timely process for both candidates and internal teams.
  • Own offer processes end-to-end: prepare and present offers, handle negotiations, and close candidates.
  • Keep the ATS and all recruiting tools up to date, ensuring accurate tracking of candidates, stages, and feedback.
  • Work closely with HR/People operations to ensure a smooth handover from signed offer to onboarding, making sure no candidate “drops” in the transition.
  • Prepare basic reports on pipeline health, time-to-hire, and process bottlenecks to keep stakeholders informed and aligned.
Requirements
  • At least 3 years of experience in technical recruiting, with a strong focus on engineering, ML/AI, robotics, or other deep‑tech roles.
  • Proven track record hiring hard‑to‑fill, highly specialized technical profiles.
  • Excellent English communication skills (spoken and written), able to communicate credibly with senior engineers and researchers.
  • Demonstrated success with proactive sourcing (not just inbound), including candidates from top universities, research labs, and high‑bar companies.
  • Hands-on experience running end‑to‑end hiring processes independently: from intake and profile definition through to offer, negotiation, and closing.
  • Ability to quickly understand and articulate complex technical problem spaces well enough to qualify candidates and build trust.
  • Comfortable working in an early‑stage, fast‑moving environment with evolving structures and priorities.
  • High ownership and execution mindset: you prioritize effectively, move searches forward without micromanagement, and handle hands‑on tasks like sourcing, scheduling, and follow‑ups.
  • High integrity and discretion when handling sensitive candidate and compensation information.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills and experience partnering with founders and senior leadership.
Bonus points from:
  • Direct experience hiring for robotics.
  • Experience working in early‑stage startups or high‑growth environments with limited existing process.
  • Previous experience with Workable or a similar ATS.
Benefits
  • Competitive compensation
  • A front-row seat at one of Europe’s most ambitious robotics companies
  • An energetic, collaborative team with a bias for action
  • Significant ownership over how we build our hiring engine and technical talent brand
  • Close collaboration with world-class robotics, ML, and software engineers, and direct influence on the composition of the core team
