About

I advise tech recruiting and employer branding teams on global hiring strategies. I run Relocate.me, the leading job board for software engineers open to relocation, with 300K+ registered users and hiring partners in 20+ countries. I’m actively contributing to Substack, where I write practical content for software engineers navigating international careers. Follow along at https://substack.com/@relocateme If you’re a Tech Recruiter, you probably know GlossaryTech, a Chrome extension to learn tech jargon. I started it after a viral LinkedIn post… but that’s a long story.
