Ines Avdić-Zekić
@inesavdi-zeki
I build scalable technical and executive recruiting strategies for high-growth technology companies.
What I'm looking for
At Automattic, I lead recruiting strategy for Engineering, Systems, Performance, Sales, Marketing, and emerging AI Engineering roles, redesigning hiring approaches around workforce needs, technical competencies, sourcing, assessment, and data-informed decisions. I’ve improved code-test conversion by 10%, sustained 50% trial conversion through preparation materials, and increased women hired by 20%.
Across Automattic, N26, MVP Match/MVP Factory, Toptal, and Academy387, I’ve built and led talent acquisition functions, recruited technical and executive talent globally, and developed recruiters into strategic talent advisors. I bring 11+ years of hands-on and operational recruiting experience, from market mapping and creative sourcing to workforce planning, DEI initiatives, recruiting analytics, and scalable hiring processes.
