I build engineering and product teams through leadership hiring, market intelligence, and structured recruiting.
What I'm looking for
I partner with founders and leadership teams to build engineering, product, data, design, and strategy organizations. Over 5+ years in tech recruiting, I've closed critical leadership and niche technical roles from Engineering Managers to VP-level hires.
At Edra Labs, I lead end-to-end hiring across Technical Lead, Engineering Manager, Principal Engineer, strategy, finance, and campus engineering roles. I also drive compensation benchmarking, mentor junior recruiters, and led an internal hackathon to strengthen collaboration and employer branding.
As a Talent Acquisition Consultant at BrowserStack, I owned backend engineering hiring for Senior Software Engineer and Technical Lead roles, achieving an approximately 80% offer-to-join conversion rate. I managed intake alignment, sourcing, interviews, and offer closure in a high-growth environment.
At MetaMorph, I generated ₹1.5 Cr+ in revenue through placements while hiring across fintech, gaming, robotics, healthtech, and supply chain. I built trusted relationships with founders and CXOs, used Wellfound and advanced Boolean sourcing to achieve 5x+ ROI, and advised stakeholders on talent markets and hiring strategy.
