About

I build talent engines that turn hiring into a competitive advantage. I am a Talent Acquisition architect and AI native talent operator who scales teams through the hardest growth phases. I do not just close roles. I build predictable hiring systems that protect velocity, raise the talent bar, and directly support revenue and product outcomes My edge is a simple combination Deep technical recruiting craft, plus AI automation, plus data-driven funnel control. How I work I treat recruiting like a product. I build scorecards, calibrate leveling, instrument funnel metrics, and remove friction with automation. I use Boolean and X-ray search, GitHub sourcing, developer communities, and predictive talent mapping to consistently find talent that others miss. If you are building or scaling a SaaS company and hiring feels slow, reactive, or noisy, that is exactly the problem I solve. I build teams that build outcomes.
