A seasoned Talent Acquisition Leader | Executive Search | Leadership Hiring Specialist Recently worked with Postman ( Ex-Yahoo!, Google, WalmartLabs) & ran my own executive search venture and exited. My journey has been hiring rockstar engineering talent across large product companies and early-stage startups. I have built and led high performing recruiting teams. After a career break, I’m now exploring challenging roles in Talent Acquisition — open to working only with startups that are creating high impact in domains like Deep Tech, AI, Cybersecurity, Space, Solar Energy, and Sustainability — anywhere in the world. Other interests: Climbing Himalayan peaks ( 18,500 Ft so far in North Sikkim), High-altitude running ( #GWR- Ran on Worlds Highest Frozen Lake in Ladakh, India) and book reading fuels my inner energy. I frequently blog about the Future of Recruiting, AI, AI Sourcing, Mental Models, Cognitive Biases, Critical Thinking, and Assumption Busting. I am working on a side project in Neuroscience, the project deals with how to decode hidden lessons from setbacks/failures as quickly as possible and reach new heights in life.
