About

I joined Frido when we were a 100 passionate minds, building India's leading ergonomic wellness brand. Today? We're the market leaders in comfort tech – from orthopedic cushions and insoles to mobility solutions that have reached over 1.2 million customers. I've been part of that 6x growth, hiring the people who design, build, and ship products that genuinely change how India sits, walks, and sleeps. My job isn't just filling roles. It's finding the product engineer who'll design the next bestseller. It's convincing a senior leader to join a category most people didn't know existed five years ago. It's that moment in an interview when you just know – this person is going to build something extraordinary here. What I actually do: → Built the TA team that's now building Frido – hiring the hirers, then watching them scale the company → Hunt for talent that doesn't apply to job posts (because the best rarely do) → Turn passive "not looking" candidates into signed offer letters → Design onboarding experiences that make Day 1 feel like coming home → Build retention strategies that keep our best people growing here → Build TA playbooks that scale as fast as our order volume The thrill hasn't changed since Day 1: a candidate's excited "Yes," a hiring manager's relieved smile, and months later—watching that hire launch something that lands in thousands of Indian homes. That's not HR. That's building leaders, one person at a time. Let's talk if: You're a passive candidate curious about comfort tech | You're an HR leader who geeks out about talent strategy
