About Klea Prim

I\'m a Lead Technical Recruiter with 15+ years of experience connecting exceptional engineering talent with companies that are shaping the future of technology. Currently at ServiceNow, I partner with 20+ cost centers and lead recruiting for the Data Platform Org — serving as a strategic advisor, consultant, and the loudest cheerleader in the room for my candidates.My career has taken me through some of the most innovative companies in tech — ServiceNow, Splunk, F5 Networks, Virtual Instruments, Playdom (now Disney), VMware, and NetApp — where I\'ve built and scaled engineering teams across disciplines like cloud infrastructure, data platforms, enterprise security, identity, and full-stack development. I\'ve worked with leadership at every level, from hiring managers to SVPs, and I pride myself on being a true partner: someone who understands the business, the technology, and the human on the other side of the process.One thing I take real pride in is the dual commitment I bring to every search. On one side, I work hard to build seamless, efficient processes with hiring teams so decisions are faster, smarter, and grounded in the right criteria. On the other side — and just as importantly — I invest in my candidates. I make sure every person I work with walks into their interview informed, confident, and set up to put their best foot forward. Because a great hiring process should feel good for everyone in it, not just the company.I\'m also leaning into the future — deliberately and with full trust in my brain\'s neuroplasticity. I\'m actively learning and integrating AI into my everyday work, using it to sharpen interview processes, identify gaps in hiring frameworks, and ultimately give my candidates an even stronger edge in their preparation. I believe that a recruiter who embraces the tools of tomorrow will always serve their people better today.What drives me is simple — I believe recruiting done right changes lives. Whether I\'m sourcing a Principal Engineer or screening an IC-level candidate, I bring the same energy: rigorous, strategic, and deeply human.Specialties: Full-cycle technical recruiting · Data and Cloud Platforms · Engineering leadership hiring · Strategic sourcing · Candidate advocacy · Interview infrastructure · AI-enhanced recruiting · Hiring manager partnerships
