## Headline

Leading Talent Acquisition at General Autonomy \| Building Engineering Teams in Robotics & Autonomous Systems

## About

Over the years, I’ve worked across high\-growth hiring environments spanning consumer tech, enterprise consulting, GCCs and now deep\-tech robotics\. Today, my focus is on finding people who care deeply about what they build and want to own difficult problems end to end\. At General Autonomy, we’re building autonomous robotic systems in India across quadrupeds, humanoids, hardware and software for national and industrial security\. We’re a small team with a high degree of ownership\. Most people here are individual contributors who take responsibility for their work from first principles through to execution\. My role is to find the people who thrive in that environment, curious, hands\-on builders who are technically strong, deeply invested in the problem and passionate enough to stay with it until it works\. If you’re building things, solving difficult engineering problems, or simply curious about what we’re working on, I’m always happy to connect\.
