  • Hasan has been instrumental in building the Engineering organization at Luminate over the last 18 months.

  • I was tasked with building out an entire engineering org of 25 in 9 months, from entry-level positions up to directors. We did it in 8 months. Hasan helped us source, screen and vet over 500 candidates of the strongest candidates from a pool of over 5000. Despite our size, we were able to attract engineering talent from some of the biggest tech companies and a big part of that was due to the excellent candidate experience provided. From initial calls all the way through the offer and closing conversations, Hasan's professionalism and understanding of the engineering talent market is one of the highest I've seen in the industry over the last 24 years.
