What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead Talent Operations and agile recruiting—scaling remote tech teams end-to-end, improving time-to-hire, retention, and hiring ROI with data-driven structures and strong candidate experience.

I’m a results-driven Talent Leader combining fractional Talent Ops, global remote team scaling, and Agile recruitment frameworks to help technology companies grow from 0 to 500 employees. I focus on measurable impact—cutting Time-to-Hire by 40% and Cost-per-Hire by 30%—while keeping hiring quality high through hyper-efficient recruitment structures.

In recent roles, I’ve led end-to-end technical recruiting and talent operations for engineering and AI/LLM needs, designing Agile talent acquisition frameworks, optimizing candidate pipelines, and reducing drop-off rates. I build structured interview loops with engineering leadership to improve candidate experience and streamline technical interviewing tracks, and I’ve led international sourcing operations across Europe and LATAM.

Earlier, I co-founded a boutique tech recruiting arm and placed 300+ software engineers, leveraging deep talent networks in LATAM and EMEA. I’ve also directed global TA teams, recruited 50+ Senior Architects/Tech Leads/Engineering Directors, and implemented data-driven hiring metrics with structured recruitment reporting—always with strict professional standards, KPI clarity, and strong employer branding.
