About

As a Talent Acquisition Specialist at D. E. Shaw India, I source, screen, and hire top talent for one of the leading global investment and technology firms. I leverage my skills in recruitment, benchmarking, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to identify and attract qualified and diverse candidates for various roles and teams. I have successfully filled multiple positions across different functions and levels, ensuring a smooth and positive candidate experience. I hold an MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Shillong, where I gained a solid foundation in general management, strategy, and leadership. I was part of the Public Relations Cell, where I organized and managed multiple events, campaigns, and sessions with external stakeholders, enhancing the brand presence and reputation of the institute. I also completed a summer internship at D. E. Shaw India, where I worked on a project related to DEI in recruitment, conducting data mining, benchmarking, sourcing, and branding activities. Prior to joining D. E. Shaw India, I worked as a Software Engineer at TEKsystems, where I developed, tested, and deployed software solutions using various technologies, such as Python, Java, AWS, GCP, and Azure. I also acquired multiple skills, such as SQL, Python, and data analytics, that enabled me to deliver quality and efficient results. I am AWS Certified Developer – Associate, and I have a keen interest in learning new technologies and tools. I am passionate about creating a positive impact in the world through my work and hobbies. I have an outgoing personality and I enjoy drama, poetry, and music among other things. I value collaboration, learning, and diversity, and I strive to contribute to the growth and success of the organizations and communities I am part of.
