📡 About Us

At Interplanetary Talent Services (IPTS), we’re on a mission to redefine how frontier technology companies hire. We partner with ambitious teams building the infrastructure, protocols, and applied systems shaping the future of the internet and increasingly, the future of human-computer interaction.

Our work spans Web3, AI, neurotechnology, and biologically-integrated systems, supporting companies operating at the intersection of software, research, and emerging science. As our clients push beyond software-only systems into AI-driven, research-heavy, and interdisciplinary domains, we’re scaling our recruiting team to match that ambition.

📋 Role Overview

We’re hiring a Senior Technical Recruiter to lead full-cycle recruiting across Web3, AI, neurotech, and biotech-adjacent roles. You’ll own hiring from early-career engineers through senior ICs, research roles, and executive leadership, partnering closely with founders, technical leaders, and research teams.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in complex, high-signal hiring environments where candidates don’t always apply, backgrounds are interdisciplinary, and talent often comes from research labs, startups, or academic-to-industry transitions.
