ABOUT UDAY UNZAGA
I’m a technical recruiter focused on helping companies scale engineering and operational teams through structured, data-driven hiring. At NVC, I’ve placed Senior and Principal-level Software, DevOps, Cloud, and Data engineers across modern tech stacks including Java, C#/.NET, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript (React/Node), Go, and C++. I recruit across cloud-native environments spanning AWS, Azure, and GCP with platforms such as Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and modern data ecosystems. Earlier in my career at Teleperformance, I supported high-volume hiring at scale, helping deliver 100+ hires per week across large enterprise programs in retail, rideshare, and telecom including Uber, Walmart, and AT & T. That experience built a strong foundation in operational recruiting, workforce planning, and process-driven talent operations. My approach combines process design, automation, and analytics. I focus on building structured hiring frameworks, repeatable recruiting playbooks, and clear pipeline data across metrics like time-to-hire, stage pass-through, offer acceptance, and quality-of-hire. The goal is always the same: help companies hire faster without sacrificing quality or candidate experience. I work across a range of recruiting and HR systems including ClickUp, Lever, Ashby, BambooHR, ApplicantStack, Zoho Recruit, ClayHR, Asana, Monday, Salesforce, GoHighLevel, Freshdesk, Notion, Slack, Discord, GitHub, and time-tracking platforms. I also integrate AI and automation tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini to improve sourcing, workflow efficiency, and reporting. My specialties include technical recruiting, Talent Acquisition leadership, People and HR operations, global hiring across the U.S. and LATAM, high-volume recruiting, nearshore and offshore hiring, ATS implementation and administration, structured interviewing and scorecards, onboarding and L&D coordination, workforce and headcount planning, payroll coordination, compliance, employer branding, candidate experience, pipeline analytics, and automation in TA and HR. Open to connecting with founders and People leaders scaling CX, SaaS, and BPO organizations.
