What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration, innovation, and diversity.

As an HR professional with extensive experience in talent initiatives across LATAM, I specialize in building and scaling high-performing teams while fostering strong partnerships with leadership teams. My expertise lies in developing innovative strategies and implementing data-driven solutions to streamline recruitment processes. I am passionate about creating diverse and inclusive workplaces that attract top talent and drive organizational success.

In my role as a Senior Talent Advisor at Salesforce, I successfully collaborated with U.S. hiring managers to establish a Mexico City engineering hub, hiring nearly 40 engineers in less than a year with a 100% acceptance rate. My strategic approach to recruitment has consistently reduced time-to-hire and enhanced candidate experiences. With a proven track record of hiring over 200 professionals during my tenure at Intel, I have honed my skills in full-cycle recruitment, compensation planning, and stakeholder engagement across multiple countries.
