THE ROLE
We are seeking an experienced Technical Recruiter with a strong track record in semiconductor design hiring to own the recruitment of our engineering team as we scale. You will find, engage and close Senior, Staff and Senior Staff engineers across analog / mixed-signal design, digital design and custom layout, working on high-speed SerDes, UCIe die-to-die PHYs and ADC/DAC (ADDA) IP on advanced FinFET nodes. Our current focus markets include the UK, Europe, Canada, Armenia, India and Taiwan. This role suits a recruiter who understands the technical landscape, builds talent pipelines proactively, and enjoys high ownership in a small, fast-moving team.
Location: Fully remote, with good overlap with UK working hours.
Hiring Manager: Laura Topor, Head of People and Culture.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Full-Cycle Technical Recruitment: Own end-to-end hiring for engineering roles across analog / mixed-signal design, digital design and custom layout – from intake and sourcing through screening, interview coordination, offer and onboarding handover.
• Hiring Strategy & Workforce Planning: Partner with the founder and engineering leads to translate the hiring plan into clear role profiles, levels (Senior, Staff, Senior Staff) and priorities, balancing urgency, budget and team composition.
• Proactive Sourcing & Talent Mapping: Build and maintain pipelines of passive candidates in the semiconductor ecosystem, mapping talent at IP vendors, fabless companies, foundries, EDA vendors and design-service houses, with a focus on high-speed SerDes, UCIe, ADC/DAC and advanced-node layout expertise.
• Multi-Region Hiring: Recruit across the UK, Europe, Canada, Armenia, India and Taiwan, adapting outreach, compensation benchmarking and engagement models (employee, EOR or contractor) to each market.
• Technical Screening: Run structured first-stage screens that assess candidates' domain fit (e.g. SerDes vs. data-converter experience, FinFET node exposure, layout tool flows), so engineering interviewers spend time only on strong candidates.
• Candidate Experience & Employer Brand: Deliver a fast, transparent and respectful process. Represent Analogue Insight credibly in the market through LinkedIn, technical communities, conferences and university networks.
• Offers & Closing: Gather market data, advise on competitive and location-adjusted offers, manage negotiations and close candidates in line with company compensation and equity policy.
• Process, Data & Tools: Run hiring in our ATS (HiBob), keep pipelines and reporting accurate, track metrics such as time-to-hire, conversion rates and source quality, and continuously improve the process.
• Agency & Partner Management: Select and manage specialist recruitment agencies and EOR partners where needed, keeping costs and quality under control.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 5+ years of technical recruitment experience, with at least 3 years hiring for semiconductor design roles (in-house, agency or RPO).
• Proven track record of filling Senior and Staff-level positions in analog / mixed-signal design, digital design (RTL, verification, physical design) and custom layout.
• Solid working understanding of the IC design flow and terminology – e.g. SerDes, PLLs, ADC/DAC, die-to-die interfaces, FinFET nodes, Cadence Virtuoso and Synopsys/Cadence digital flows – enough to hold credible conversations with engineers and screen effectively.
• Strong network in the semiconductor talent market, ideally across Europe, the UK and India and/or Armenia, Canada or Taiwan.
• Experience hiring internationally for remote teams, including familiarity with EOR and contractor engagement models.
• Expert sourcing skills using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, GitHub/academic networks and conference/alumni communities.
• Experience working in a start-up or scale-up environment, ideally building a hiring function from an early stage.
• Data-driven approach to pipeline management and reporting; comfortable with modern ATS platforms (HiBob experience a plus).

Soft & Professional Skills:

• Clear, structured communication in professional English – able to sell a technical vision to senior engineers concisely and credibly
• Collaborative and feedback-oriented mindset, building trust with hiring managers and candidates alike
• Strong ownership, reliability and follow-through, with the ability to run many searches in parallel
• Curious, self-motivated attitude, eager to learn the technology and explore new tools or methods, including AI-assisted sourcing
• Persuasive, resilient and comfortable negotiating with experienced candidates
• High level of integrity and discretion in representing the company and handling confidential candidate and compensation information
