Duda Carvalho

At Combine, I lead global Talent Acquisition strategy across LATAM, North America and Europe, partnering with executives on scalable hiring, workforce planning and leadership searches. I lead a distributed team of eight recruiters and sourcers while building governance, dashboards and AI-enabled recruiting operations.

I’ve built Talent Acquisition functions from scratch at high-growth technology companies including Jusbrasil and Swile. At Jusbrasil, I hired 60+ developers in four months; at Swile, my team delivered 101% and 103% of staffing plans in consecutive years.

I use structured interviewing, competency scorecards, quality-of-hire metrics and talent intelligence to improve hiring quality, speed and consistency. My AI sourcing and automation work cut time-to-shortlist by roughly 40% while maintaining a global average time-to-fill of about 35 days.

I’m a bilingual English/Portuguese talent leader who enjoys helping founders and C-level leaders make strong, inclusive hiring decisions across globally distributed teams.
