What I'm looking for

I’m open to Senior TA Lead and Head of TA opportunities across MENA and with remote-first global teams. I’m energized by building recruiting functions and hiring engines from the ground up, then scaling them as companies grow.

At MoonTech, I own the talent acquisition engine, leading full-cycle recruitment across regions for internal, executive, and advisory roles. I build hiring systems and plans, and manage MoonTech’s ESOP and equity work, including SAFE, SAFT, and RSU agreements.

At ITCAN Technology and Digital Marketing, I led talent operations and recruitment, developing hiring processes, dashboards, and employer branding initiatives. Across my MENA recruiting work, I’ve closed 500+ hires in the last 10 years and built and managed recruiting teams of 12.
