Abhilash K. — Head of Talent
From humble beginnings as a recruiter to leading global hiring initiatives across India, the US, Europe, and Australia, I specialize in building world-class Engineering, R&D, Product, and G&A teams across the APAC and EMEA regions. I'm proud to have built teams from the ground up, consistently stepping up during critical phases of company growth. My journey from pre-IPO to post-IPO, achieved not just once, but twice, has been nothing short of remarkable. Going beyond the call of duty, I've lived the quintessential recruiter’s dream: “Been there, done that!”
