# Recruiting Coordinator at Genesis

- **Company:** Genesis
- **Location:** Bay Area
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** onsite
- **Posted:** 2026-11-02
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-11-05

## Job description

## About the role

Genesis brings together AI research, simulation, and robotics to build general-purpose robots that can work in the real world. Our mission is to unlock unlimited physical labor. To get there, we need exceptional people. And the way we hire them matters: every interaction tells candidates something about how we work. You’ll make our recruiting process run smoothly, from the first interview to the handoff into onboarding. Complex calendars, multiple time zones, last-minute changes, candidates with competing offers: you’ll bring clarity and momentum to all of it. You’ll also help improve the operation as we grow. When something creates friction, you’ll be close enough to spot it and empowered to fix it.

## What you’ll own

- Keeping interviews moving. Coordinate interviews across teams and time zones, manage complex interview loops, and resolve scheduling conflicts before they become delays.
- Making candidates feel looked after. Be a reliable point of contact for scheduling, preparation, and logistics. Make sure every candidate knows what happens next.
- Owning the onsite candidate experience. Welcome candidates, prepare interview rooms, coordinate interviewers, and keep the day running smoothly. Be present and available throughout their visit, handling last-minute changes and making every candidate feel expected and looked after.
- Keeping the process accurate. Maintain clean records in Ashby, keep interview plans and candidate stages up to date, and follow up on missing feedback with recruiters and hiring managers.
- Making the operation better every week. Spot recurring bottlenecks, improve templates and scheduling workflows, and introduce practical automations that save time.
- Connecting recruiting to onboarding. Partner with People and Operations to make the transition from accepted offer to first day clear and well coordinated.

You’ll thrive here if

- You’ve coordinated recruiting, complex schedules, events, or other operations where timing and attention to detail matter.
- You can manage several moving pieces at once and keep people informed when priorities change.
- You communicate clearly and warmly. Your messages make the next step obvious.
- You take ownership: you notice what needs doing, follow through, and close the loop.
- You’re comfortable learning new tools and finding better ways to handle repetitive work.
- You handle candidate information with care and discretion.

Bonus points

- You’ve used Ashby or another applicant tracking system.
- You’ve supported technical recruiting or worked in a fast-growing startup.
- You’ve coordinated across European and US time zones.
- You’ve built a scheduling workflow, useful template, or small automation that made a team faster.

The offer

- Competitive base salary plus meaningful equity.
- An on-site role, with occasional flexibility to work from home when needed.
- The chance to shape the candidate experience and recruiting operations behind a frontier AI and robotics team.

Genesis is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.

## About Genesis

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Genesis AI is a full-stack robotics company building general-purpose robots with human-level dexterity and intelligence, powered by its own foundation model and hardware.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage – $105M raised)
- **Headquarters**: Paris, France (with offices in the San Francisco Bay Area and London)
- **Founded**: 2024 (emerged from stealth in July 2025)
- **Founders**: Zhou Xian (CEO), Théophile Gervet (President & Co-founder), Yi-Ling Qiao (Co-founder), Tsun-Hsuan Wang (Co-founder)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Robotics Engineering / General-Purpose Robotics
- **Target customers**: Enterprises in manufacturing, laboratories, hospitals, and logistics; future expansion into homes.
- **Mission**: “Build the world’s most capable robots that unlock new possibilities for humans.”

## Products & Services
- **Eno (General-Purpose Robot)**: A full-body robot designed to operate reliably in factories, labs, hospitals, and homes. Driven by the GENE foundation model, it features 20 active, back-drivable degrees of freedom in its hands – matching human size and dexterity.
- **GENE-26.5 (Foundation Model)**: The AI model that powers Eno. It understands goals, reasons through changing conditions, and completes tasks end-to-end. Trained on massive human-based internet video data and proprietary simulation.
- **Data Collection Glove**: A lightweight, sensor-loaded glove worn by humans to collect high-quality manipulation data in real-world settings (e.g., lab technicians, manufacturing workers). This glove bridges the “embodiment gap” and feeds the model with human skill data.
- **Simulation System**: A proprietary simulation environment that accelerates model training and evaluation, reducing the iteration bottleneck.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding of **$105M** (Seed round, July 2025)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Eclipse (co-lead), Khosla Ventures (co-lead), Bpifrance, HSG; individual investors Eric Schmidt, Xavier Niel, Daniela Rus, Vladlen Koltun. Hardware manufacturing partner: Wuji Tech (China).
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Headcount grew from stealth to ~53–60 employees across Paris, Bay Area, and London (monthly growth +16% on LinkedIn).
  - 29 active job postings as of mid-2026, with a +262.5% monthly increase in openings.
  - Demonstrated a wide range of manipulation tasks (cooking, piano, Rubik’s cube, lab work) in public demos.
  - In talks with multiple customers for commercial deployment in pharma and manufacturing.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Full-stack integration**: Genesis controls both the AI model and the robotic hardware, enabling tighter optimization and faster iteration than companies that only do software or hardware.
- **Human-like dexterity**: The robotic hand matches human size, shape, and 20 degrees of freedom, allowing direct transfer of human demonstration data without an “embodiment gap.”
- **Data flywheel**: The combination of a low-friction data collection glove, simulation, and egocentric video creates a scalable pipeline for building a “human skill library.”
- **World-class team**: Founders and early engineers have backgrounds from Mistral AI, NVIDIA, Google DeepMind, Apple Intelligence, Unity, Epic, and leading robotics labs (Berkeley, CMU).

## Strategic Focus
- **Go full stack**: Continue integrating model, hardware, and data collection to deliver a complete general-purpose robot.
- **Commercial rollout**: Target early customers in pharmaceutical labs, manufacturing, and other industrial settings where dexterous manipulation is critical.
- **Scale data collection**: Expand the use of the data glove (both internally and with third-party partners) to rapidly grow the model’s skill repertoire.
- **Global hiring**: Aggressively grow the team across Paris, Bay Area, and London, especially in ML, simulation, rendering, and robotics engineering.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Values include candor, responsibility, limitless ambition, and a joyful journey. The team is described as multicultural, optimistic, and pragmatic.
- **Work model**: Hybrid/office-based presence in Paris, San Francisco Bay Area, and London. No explicit remote policy mentioned, but the company emphasizes in-person collaboration.
- **Engineering culture**: Builders get to work on the hardest problems in robotics and AI – from foundation models to hardware design to data systems. The team includes pioneers of generative simulation, Diffusion Policy, and GPU compilers.
- **Notable perks**: The chance to shape a category-defining general-purpose robot; close collaboration with world-class investors and advisors; fast-growing startup with significant resources ($105M seed).
