Team
We're a nimble team of humans working together to do big things.
Ashby is a remote-first company with colleagues working from 14 countries in North America and Europe. We meet in person at least once a year in Europe and in our office in San Francisco.

Something I'm proud of at Ashby...
A consistent, cohort based hiring process that enables Ashby to hire the best talent across the whole pool of candidates for any given job. This has enabled us to focus on pipeline, process elements that impact "Quality of Hire," and creates a choice scenario for hiring managers at the end of our hiring activities.
Something I've helped the team with...
A fast and efficient pipeline generation model that helps all of our hiring managers see immediate, high caliber talent pools for their roles. I wear many hats within this, focusing on where I can make the biggest impact to help Ashby grow! Rolling my sleeves up, screening resumes, sourcing candidates, and scheduling interviews gives me the deepest look into our products capabilities. I can help help leverage my deep talent experience to help any teammate, from Engineering to Customer Success, Marketing to Sales.
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
The intentionality in everything we do. It's very special.
Something I'm proud of at Ashby...
Iโve worked to improve many people and culture initiatives here at Ashby, including new employee onboarding. I want everyone who joins Ashby to have an amazing experience! Itโs important that new team members feel welcome, are equipped with the right tools and knowledge base, and are immersed in the product from Day 1.
Something I've helped the team with...
I planned our in person company offsite! We all met in California and enjoyed a week of learning, collaboration, and social outings together. Iโm hoping to plan another company outing next year and Iโll also be working with smaller teams to provide more opportunities for in-person connection.
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
Itโs still amazing to me how much our team gets done while working pretty much entirely asynchronously!
Something I'm excited to work on at Ashby...
I'm excited to help build the GTM teams, create process that delivers a strong candidate experience, AND share feedback on the product!
My onboarding experience at Ashby...
Onboarding has been wonderful. I've had time to explore the documentation and product, and the team has been very welcoming and helpful in sharing their knowledge. Probably the best, most thoughtful onboarding I've had!
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
An obvious answer here is the detail in documentation. As well as that, I've been wonderfully surprised with how connected the team feels while being so purposeful about our work. Efficiency isn't happening in a vacuum ๏ผ it's in collaboration with others.
Something I'm proud of at Ashby...
As the only dedicated resource to sourcing (for now!), I've been able to support hiring across all functions while partnering with hiring managers across the company. From setting up and implementing processes to providing product feedback and participating in community events, there's no shortage of ways to have impact.
Something I've helped the team with...
One of the great things about working at Ashby is the ability to balance day-to-day work with longer term projects that materially move the work forward. Taking this kind of proactive approach means I get to work on a project that will impact how we hire for engineering roles into the future, but that is also a fun break in the routine work.
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
How remarkably effective and balanced everyone is. I've worked in high-stress environments where it feels like there are fires everywhere, and Ashby is just the complete opposite. It's like being in a well-oiled machine without losing the innovation, creativity, and excitement of a growth stage company. Might be biased, but I think it comes down to the people.
