With over 8 years of experience in Human Resources, I’ve developed strong expertise in Talent Acquisition, HR Business Partnering, and Employee Engagement across organizations like Tooltech Global Engineering, Gateway Group, SNDK Corp, and Devrepublic. While Gateway gave me exposure to global and corporate hiring across Europe, my experience at Tooltech, SNDK, and Devrepublic focused on technical and engineering recruitment, where I built and scaled high-performing teams across diverse domains.

At Devrepublic, I single-handedly managed end-to-end HR operations, growing the team from 17 to over 70 employees with strong retention. At Tooltech, I’ve been responsible for hiring specialized engineering talent, managing stakeholder communication, and improving recruitment turnaround. Across all roles, I’ve combined strategic thinking with hands-on execution to deliver business-aligned people solutions.

Completed my MBA in HR from Gujarat Technological University in 2016
