About Justin Caird

People are a company\'s greatest asset, and my career has been dedicated to connecting the right people at the right time, with innovative companies across industries such as SaaS, Medical Device/Healthcare, and Video/Ad Tech. I’ve had the privilege of hiring thousands of software, R&D and IT professionals (while dabbling in GTM and G&A), and I’ve partnered with leaders at all levels, including the C-suite, to craft and execute equitable, bias-reducing, scalable hiring strategies. I’m equally collaborative with critical cross-functional teams, including HR Business Partners, Total Rewards, Ops, Talent Development, Marketing and FP & A, to ensure stakeholder expectations are clear and alignment is strong.With dual expertise in corporate and agency recruiting environments, I bring a unique perspective to talent delivery and a strong sense of urgency to every task. I combine excellent business acumen with deep knowledge in a wide variety of technical disciplines spanning Software/R&D, Embedded Systems, AI/ML, Data Engineering, DevOps/Cloud/SRE, QA/Test, Cyber Security, and Product/Program Management - enabling me to build trust with both candidates and hiring leaders.I\'m currently a Co-Owner with ProSearch, having tons of fun recruiting top talent, scaling our processes, tinkering with AI and empowering the tech community here in Maine and Greater New England. Whether you’re actively exploring the market or just keeping feelers out, let’s connect- I’d love to be a resource for you.Skills: Team Leadership & Mentorship | Full-Cycle Recruitment | Candidate Sourcing/Pipeline Development | Talent Assessment/Interviewing | Process Optimization | Executive (VP/SVP) Recruiting | Talent Intelligence | Recruitment Marketing | Candidate Experience | Hiring Manager Upskilling | Metrics & Analytics | Lean/Six Sigma | Inclusive Hiring Strategies Tech: Greenhouse | Workday | Avature | Bullhorn | Namely | LinkedIn Recruiter | Indeed | Eqtble | G-Suite | MS Office Suite | Slack | Teams | ChatGPT Global Hiring Experience: US, Mexico, UK, Portugal, India, Australia, Japan Personal Interests: Being the best girl dad I can be, hiking, biking, long boarding, snowboarding, cooking, traveling
