Manufacturing Recruiter (High-Volume)

Job description

Target start date: Immediately. Relocation provided.

Since its founding in 2015, 1X has been at the forefront of developing advanced humanoid robots designed for household use. Our mission is to create an abundant supply of labor via safe, intelligent humanoids.

We strive for excellence in all we do, solving some of the hardest problems in robotics with the world’s most talented individuals. Every part of our robots is designed and produced in-house—from motor coils to AI—reflecting our vertically integrated approach. At 1X, you’ll own real projects, be recognized for your achievements, and rewarded based on merit.

In this role, you will own recruitment for high-volume roles—manufacturing technicians, material handlers, inventory & process specialists—impacting production at scale. You'll build the talent engine fueling our next-gen production of humanoid robots. If sourcing at scale and rapidly filling diverse roles doesn’t excite you, this may not be the right fit.

Responsibilities

• Partner with manufacturing leaders to define hiring needs and develop strategies for volume roles

• Source, screen, and evaluate candidates across technician, production, material handling, inventory, and assembly roles

• Manage high-volume pipelines with 50+ open requisitions concurrently and maintain efficient throughput

• Conduct behavioral screenings, shop-floor assessments, and track candidate quality metrics

• Ensure an exceptional candidate experience from sourcing to offer

• Drive continuous improvement in hiring processes, tools, and analytics to support scalability

• Negotiate offers, share market insights, and influence hiring decisions

Job requirements

• High-volume recruiting experience managing large rollout hiring in manufacturing or similar environments

• 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience across technician and production roles

• Proven track record of building pipelines in competitive, fast-paced operations

• Strong sourcing skills, including creative web search, job boards, communities, and referrals

• Excellent stakeholder management with the ability to align with hiring leaders and influence strategy

• Data-driven with strong project management and process optimization skills

Nice to have

• Background recruiting for manufacturing in robotics, automotive, or hardware scale-ups

• Experience with ATS systems like Greenhouse or Lever

• Familiarity with shop-floor roles and associated assessments

• DEI recruiting experience and a process-oriented mindset

Compensation
At 1X your work and results will be rewarded with a total rewards package consisting of a base salary, stock options and benefits. Base salary range is $90,000 to $130,000. Your actual salary will be based on your knowledge, skills and experience.

Location Policy
We believe the best work is done when collaborating and therefore require in-person presence in our office locations.

All done!
