Ishani Patankar — Technical Recruiter
As a Senior Technical Sourcer at Expedia Group, I thrive at the intersection of innovative technology and transformative travel experiences. My specialty lies in unearthing and engaging world-class talent across AI, Machine Learning, and Data Science—especially for those hard-to-fill, high-impact roles that drive our mission to make travel accessible for everyone, everywhere. My approach combines rigorous market research, advanced sourcing strategies, and authentic relationship-building with candidates who are as committed to innovation as they are to driving positive change in travel tech Off the clock, you’ll find me exploring new hiking trails, planning my next adventure (travel bucket list ever-growing!), or recharging over a great cup of coffee. I bring this same spirit of exploration, connection, and energy to my sourcing work—believing that when people are inspired and empowered, amazing things happen **Please note: employment opportunities and job offers at Expedia Group will always come from Expedia Group’s Talent Acquisition and hiring teams.
