Recruit Year

Recruit Year is a global talent acquisition partner for AI software and physical AI companies, recruiting engineers and technical leaders who build intelligent software and autonomous machines. Its core markets are Los Angeles and London, and it also recruits for semiconductors and hardware. It says it has relationships across North America, Europe and APAC, and it lists a UAE office as coming soon. The business describes itself as a Logan Rogers LLC company.

In AI software it recruits machine learning and AI engineers, LLM and agent builders, AI platform and infrastructure engineers, and engineering leaders. In physical AI and robotics the roles include robotics software, controls, perception, motion planning, mechatronics and embedded engineers. In semiconductors and hardware it covers chip design, FPGA, hardware architecture and embedded systems.

Its clients range from seed stage to enterprise. It works in three ways: retained search for VP, Head of, Staff and Principal roles; an embedded model in which a Recruit Year recruiter works inside the client's team for a fixed monthly retainer, aimed at hiring five to 15 engineers; and contingent placement, where the client pays only when it hires.
