Role description
Technical Writer
Ricursive IntelligenceRicursive Intelligence is a frontier AI lab building self-improving systems, starting with chip design. We are reinventing chip development and closing the loop between AI and the hardware that fuels it, recursively accelerating the path to artificial superintelligence. Backed by $335M from Sequoia, Lightspeed, DST, and NVIDIA Ventures, we are a growing, fast-paced team where every hire shapes the work.
The company has unmatched talent density, including IMO, IPhO, and IOAA gold medalists, pioneers who made prior breakthroughs in chip design: AlphaChip (Nature 2021), ePlace (DAC Best Paper Nominee 2014), RL-CCD (DAC Best Paper 2023), INSTA (DAC Best Paper 2025), and C3PO (ASP-DAC Best Paper 2026), chip leads for Apple Silicon (multiple generations of iPhone and iPad) and Google (TPU, OpenTitan), and top researchers and engineers from Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Stanford, and MIT.
We're looking for our first Technical Writer to define, craft, and amplify our company’s story across public-facing channels. The ideal candidate is someone versatile who can additionally cover traditional functions of a Head of Communications. In this hybrid role, you'll bridge the gap between our engineering team and external audiences by translating complex technical concepts into clear and compelling narratives. You should be someone who thrives on variety — equally comfortable detailing technical concepts, writing thought leadership blog posts, and managing our social media footprint.
Key responsibilities:
Content & Thought Leadership: Ideate, draft, and publish engaging blog posts and deep-dive articles that translate technical innovations into compelling narratives accessible to technical and non-technical audiences alike.
Social Media: Drive our day-to-day social media footprint to build brand presence and engage our community of investors, future customers, candidates, and other partners.
Awards, Conferences, & Media: Identify relevant industry awards and craft winning applications. Direct the team in crisply capturing the company mission, vision, and work at industry conferences and in the media.
Brand Communications: Own and execute our messaging strategy across all external channels, including key press releases and company announcements.
