About

As a professional recruiter at Ford Motor Company, I am responsible for hiring IT and software roles that shape the future of mobility and connectivity. With over eight years of experience in talent acquisition and management, I have developed and executed recruiting strategies for various levels and domains, from legacy systems to cloud computing, from developers to architects, from project managers to business analysts. In my current role, I source, screen, and interview candidates for the software platform that enables advanced application features within next-generation Ford vehicles. I leverage recruiting software, social media, cold calling, and employee referrals to attract and engage high-caliber candidates. I also negotiate offers, facilitate placements, and support on-boarding processes. My mission is to find and retain the best talent that can drive innovation and growth for Ford.

Professional Recruiter

Jun 2021 – Present · 5 yrs · Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

As a Recruiter at Ford, I have the exciting role of connecting passionate professionals with opportunities across two incredibly dynamic and vital areas of our business.
On one hand, I recruit for the teams designing and building the future of automotive software – the cutting-edge platform that powers connectivity, advanced features, and the digital intelligence within our next-generation vehicles. These roles involve deep expertise in areas like embedded software development, service frameworks, networking, security, data management, and the foundational IT that supports this innovation. I understand the nuances of building complex software systems that operate within a vehicle environment.
On the other hand, I partner closely with our manufacturing operations in Canada to find the specialized talent essential for bringing those vehicles to life on the production floor. This includes recruiting for critical roles such as Controls Engineers, Tooling experts, and Process Coaches – the skilled professionals whose expertise in automation, equipment, and operational leadership ensures quality and efficiency in our plants. I appreciate the hands-on engineering and process mastery required in this environment.
My work allows me to bridge these two worlds, understanding both the intricate digital architecture and the complex physical processes required to build modern vehicles. I'm always eager to connect with experienced individuals in either automotive software/IT or specialized manufacturing in Canada who are looking to make a significant impact at a company shaping the future of mobility. Feel free to reach out if you're exploring potential opportunities at Ford!
