Adithya K — Recruiter

I didn’t plan to be a recruiter. I became one during COVID, by accident. But it didn’t take long to realize I’d found my purpose: connecting brilliant engineers to teams solving real problems. Today, I lead Talent Acquisition at Procedure Technologies, an applied-AI engineering and product development company that believes in one simple principle: "Engineers first. Technologies later." Over the years, I’ve hired for: - Fortune 500 enterprises like HCLTech - Agile-engineering firms like Terralogic - Deep-tech domains at MulticoreWare (AI/ML, Video Codecs, Compilers, HPC) That journey shaped my ability to scale teams across startups, scale-ups, and high-growth product companies. What I focus on currently - Developers: React, Java, Python, Node.js, Mobile (Android & iOS), Full Stack - QA: Manual, Automation, & Mobile App Testers - DevOps & Cloud: Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, GCP - Design & Non-Tech: UX/UI, Sales, Marketing, HR +Niche hires handled previously: AI/ML, HPC, Embedded, Compilers, Video Codecs etc. What I’ve delivered - Closed 20+ niche engineering hires in AI/ML, Cloud, and HPC - Cut time-to-hire by 40%+ using AI tools - 90%+ of hires stayed beyond a year. - Scaled junior recruiters into top performers What makes us different At Procedure, hiring isn’t about filling roles. It’s about building future-ready teams. We run async-first, no-weekend, side-gig-friendly, values that attract builders who care about craft. We specialize in AI engineering, modern web & mobile apps, DevOps/Cloud, and design solutions. We build software that feels simple, no matter how complex the problem. And personally? I bring the mindset of a former sports captain: empathy, teamwork, and accountability. If you’re building tech teams in India — developers, QA, DevOps, Cloud, AI/ML — or looking for a partner who understands both recruitment and engineering, let’s connect. Because when teams scale fast, a reliable implementation partner often makes the difference between chasing timelines and actually delivering. 🔗 https://procedure.tech/
