Talent Matchmaker

Helping fast-growing startups hire exceptional senior talent

I'm not a recruiter. I'm a matchmaker.

After a decade in tech (as a senior engineer, PM, and founder) I've been on both sides of the hiring table. I've built teams, I've been the candidate, and I've felt the pain that exists when exceptional startups and exceptional talent struggle to find each other.

Most recruiters optimize for skill fit. But deals fall apart over culture, values, and timing. I focus on the full picture from day one, so both sides stop wasting time.

The Problem I Solve

For startups: You're spending weeks interviewing candidates who look great on paper but don't fit your culture. By the time you realize it, you've lost momentum.
For talent: You're tired of recruiters who don't understand what you actually do. You want to join a rocket ship, not just any company with funding.
The gap: Recruiters focus on keywords and years of experience. The real match (values, ambition, working style) comes too late in the process.

What I Offer

For Startups

Access to a curated network of senior talent (5+ years). I only introduce candidates I'd hire myself. No bulk resumes, just people who fit.

For Talent

Introductions to fast-growing startups where you'll actually thrive. I'll tell you the real story (culture, challenges, growth potential) not just the pitch deck.

My Approach

Senior roles only. I work with experienced professionals (5+ years). No entry-level or bulk hiring.
Quality over quantity. I'd rather make one perfect match than ten mediocre ones.
Full context upfront. Culture fit, compensation expectations, growth trajectory. I address the deal-breakers early.
Founder perspective. I've built and scaled teams. I know what works and what doesn't.

Why Me

Built tech at Swiggy, TrueBeacon (Zerodha), MPL, Fyle. I know what good engineering looks like.
Run a dev shop for 3+ years, shipped 16 products. I've hired and managed engineers.
Founded a startup in college, scaled it to $50K. I understand the founder's pain.
Not in this for volume. I'm building a network of people I genuinely believe in.
