About

I started as the sole HR and scaled the organization to 250+ employees across Pace Stock Broking and its fintech vertical, Pocketful — building hiring systems, teams, and HR processes from scratch. Today, I work at the intersection of HR Business Partnering and technical hiring in fintech and high-frequency trading (HFT) environments. I partner closely with founders and leadership to build and scale high-performance engineering and trading teams, hiring across niche roles including Quant, FPGA, C++, Python, and low-latency systems. Key impact: • Contributed to 150+ hires across tech and business functions • Led hiring for 50+ roles annually in competitive talent markets • Specialized in hiring for hard-to-fill HFT and Quant roles • Conducted campus hiring across IITs and top institutes Alongside hiring, I manage end-to-end HR operations including payroll, compliance, policy development, and employee lifecycle management. Trusted by leadership for high-impact hiring and workforce decisions, I focus on aligning talent strategy with business outcomes. Open to meaningful conversations around fintech, hiring, and people strategy.
