Pooja Singh
Chief Human Resources Officer
Executive biography
Pooja spent years in human resources leadership roles at technology and professional services companies, focused on building hiring pipelines for senior technical talent and designing employee experience programs that hold up as companies scale quickly.
She joined YashOrbit as Chief Human Resources Officer, where she owns talent acquisition, culture, learning and development, and the people policies that shape day-to-day life at the company.
Leadership overview
How Pooja approaches building the company's people function.
Hire for Judgment, Design the Process to Find It
"Technical skill shows up on a resume. Judgment only shows up if your interview process is designed to surface it."
Culture Is What You Reward, Not What You Post
"A values statement means nothing if the people who get promoted don't actually reflect it."
Onboarding Sets the Tone for Everything After
"How someone's first two weeks go predicts a lot about whether they'll still be here in two years."
Retention Starts With Honest Career Conversations
"Most people don't leave over money first — they leave because no one talked to them honestly about where they were headed."

A few of the milestones Pooja has led at YashOrbit.

Vision
I want YashOrbit to be a place senior people choose to stay, not just a place they can get hired. That means hiring processes that actually find good judgment, career paths that are honest about what growth looks like, and a culture where the values we talk about are the same ones that get rewarded in practice.
“The best hiring process in the world doesn't matter if people don't want to stay once they're here. I spend as much time on retention and growth as I do on recruiting — they're the same job, really.”
