Founding Recruiter | Helping Build Engineering Teams in India | 0 to 1 Hiring | Strategic Partner at PayPal

Over the last 7+ years in #talentacquisition, I’ve focused on hiring for core technical and product roles in large tech and product‑led organizations. Most of my day is spent talking to engineers and product managers, understanding what they’re building, and then trying to find people who can really solve those problems—not just match buzzwords on a job description. Going forward, I want to share more practical, behind‑the‑scenes hiring insights: – What actually makes a profile stand out for core technical roles – How product roles are evaluated beyond “good communication” – Small things candidates do that genuinely help (or hurt) their chances If you’re in #engineering, #product, or #talentacquisition and you’re interested in candid, real‑world hiring perspectives, happy to connect and exchange ideas.
