Shalini Sasi Kumar — Head of Talent
I’ve spent the last 14 years at the intersection of global operations and talent acquisition, helping world-class organisations like Atlassian and Amazon unleash their potential through hiring the right talent. Core Expertise: Scaling Functions: Expert in building R&D Engineering and CSS hiring functions. Operational Excellence: Reducing hiring debt and turnaround times through structured frameworks. Stakeholder Partnership: Providing clarity and structure to complex, high-volume hiring environments. My journey began in global operations at Accenture—where I learned the value of robust SOPs and leading diverse teams—and evolved into a career dedicated to scaling recruitment functions for R&D Engineering and CSS at Atlassian. I thrive in complex environments where I can build end-to-end frameworks that don't just fill seats but elevate the entire hiring journey. Whether it’s advancing data-driven decision-making or mentoring the next generation of recruiters, my goal is always the same: building sustainable talent engines that drive business growth.
