Talent Acquisition Leader + Business Process Outsourcing
With a decade in talent acquisition, Ritchie has driven hiring initiatives at AppDynamics during Cisco's $3.7B acqusition, Facebook, Houzz, and led recruiting for Mixpanel's pre-IPO surge. He now leads a consultancy that helps emerging tech companies scale their workforce. He also served as an advisor for Toronto-based startup Shippie through a successful acquisition.
Growth Marketing Leader
Talal is a growth marketer who has helped startups grow with content and SEO for over a decade. He's helped multiple SaaS and VC-backed startups with content marketing & SEO, and previously led growth at companies like Stable (YC W20) and On Deck.
“Ritchie was instrumental in developing the necessary infrastructure for us to run an effective recruiting process. I come from Amazon where I interviewed close to 700 people for our team over four years, worked with dozens of recruiters and eventually was a bar raiser. Even then I knew that I would need outside support for recruiting some of our early technical hires into my current startup. Ritchie is easily in the top 5% of recruiters I've worked with. Highly recommended.”
“I worked with Ritchie at Houzz to grow a new remote office in Los Angeles. Ritchie has a great energy and enthusiasm. He keeps things moving and builds good relationships with candidates. Above all else, he approaches every case thoughtfully and he's a creative thinker who never relies on only the standard process.He was a fundamental partner in the success of our new remote office in every way.”
I worked with Talal in a few different capacities while I ran the media desk at On Deck, which worked with our high-touch alums.
With utmost sincerity, he is one of the best marketing operators I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He is the consummate professional: elegant in his thinking, a practitioner of rich feedback, agile, outcome-driven, unfailingly kind, and laser-focused.
I am envious of the next team that gets to work with him.
Talal is in the top percentile of people I've worked with and would recommend him in a heartbeat.
He took over marketing for ODX and founder-focused programs and led key launches like ODX Flexport, ODF Advance, and ODX India.
He also built the systems for Q&As (one of On Deck's most effective marketing tactics), and much more.
His best quality is his ability to deliver high-quality work in all areas – he's a strong writer, a deep systems thinker, and a thoughtful executioner.
