About Shoshana Kaye

I joined Brooklinen as the 14th employee and the first hire on our CPO’s team, supporting early HR operations, onboarding, CX, and recruiting as the company built its People foundation. Over time, my work expanded into full-cycle recruiting, process design, and cross-functional partnership as Brooklinen grew into a nearly 200-person organization.Today, I lead Talent Acquisition and partner with our executive team on organizational design, leadership hiring, and building structured processes that create clarity, consistency, and a strong candidate experience. My focus is on aligning hiring with business needs, supporting leaders in building effective teams, and maintaining a thoughtful, transparent experience for candidates and employees.
