About

I am a Global Talent Acquisition Leader with 18+ years of experience building, scaling, and leading high-performance recruiting organizations across the USA, Canada, Mexico, and India. Over my career, I have placed 500+ IT and digital professionals, managed and mentored teams of 10โ€“20 recruiters, and supported 30+ client accounts ranging from enterprise to mid-market. I consistently deliver results in competitive markets โ€” maintaining an average time-to-fill under 20 days for IT roles and overseeing recruiting operations. Currently serving as Head of Talent Acquisition at Addon Technologies, I partner closely with executive leadership to design workforce strategies, scale delivery teams, and enable business growth through world-class IT and digital talent. My expertise spans US staffing operations, global delivery models, vendor partnerships, compliance, contract negotiation, and large-scale hiring programs. I have built and led globally distributed recruitment teams, supported enterprise and mid-market clients, and consistently delivered results in competitive and high-volume environments โ€” across Java, .NET, Salesforce, Dynamics 365, Cloud, Data, QA Automation, and ERP hiring. In addition to my corporate role, I actively mentor recruiters and HR professionals, combining real-world experience with strategic HR and applied analytics knowledge gained from IIM Rohtak. I believe talent acquisition is not just hiring โ€” it is a strategic business function that shapes culture, capability, and long-term success. ๐Ÿ“ฉ Open to strategic TA leadership conversations, consulting engagements, or collaboration. Feel free to connect or message me directly.
