Pooja is an engineer-turned-recruiter and has been a force on the Swing team since 2017. She holds a Bachelor of Computer Science and uses her technical background to recruit startup leaders that are highly analytical and able to partner with technologists at all levels.
Pooja got her start in recruiting in 2013 at Hike Messenger, India’s first home-grown instant messenger app. There she helped grow the engineering, product and design teams during their hyper growth through their Series B and Series C funding, growing from 20 million to 100 million users.
In 2016, Pooja joined a US-based startup called KryptonCloud, a highly-technical software company, acquired by Splunk in 2018. There she worked directly with the CEO to make key hires in engineering and business development.
In her spare time, Pooja loves doing Jiu-Jitsu or playing badminton, volleyball, or rock-climbing. For her insanely beautiful Indian wedding, check out Swing’s Instagram feed!
