APJ talent acquisition specialist delivering full-cycle hiring across enterprise technology and SaaS.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist with 10+ years of full-cycle recruitment experience across enterprise technology, networking, SaaS, BPO, and e-commerce organizations. I specialize in APJ regional recruiting (Japan, Singapore, ANZ, Korea) across Sales, Engineering, and Corporate functions.
I’ve led strategic, stakeholder-driven searches from mid-level individual contributors to executive leadership, consistently improving performance through direct sourcing, talent mapping, and close hiring-manager alignment. In my current APJ role, I achieved 85% offer-acceptance (39 hires from 46 offers) and improved to 90% (27 hires from 30 offers).
I’ve also built and scaled hiring programs that directly impact quality and speed, including launching Japan’s internal employee referral program from scratch and creating referral growth across regions. I’ve championed diversity and inclusion (D&I) hiring practices and coached senior leaders on structured interviewing and talent acquisition best practices.
My approach is high-touch and low-agency-reliance—powered by ATS workflows and proven sourcing channels. I’m experienced with Workday, SmartRecruiters, and Workable, and I blend LinkedIn Recruiter, BizReach, Openwork, GitHub, Stack Overflow, and Doda with cross-cultural, cross-timezone stakeholder communication to deliver dependable hiring outcomes.
