Dina S.
Top Rated AI & Tech Talent Acquisition Leader
Top Rated TA Leader with 100% Sucess Rate on Upwork. I lead and deliver talent acquisition for AI-driven organizations in Dubai and the UAE, partnering with founders, CTOs, and HR leaders to build high-impact technical, product, and delivery teams. I work in a senior agency capacity, operating as an embedded hiring partner rather than a transactional recruiter. My role often mirrors Head of Talent Acquisition or TA Director responsibility, supporting both early-stage scale-ups and complex enterprise environments. I am a top-rated talent acquisition leader with 12+ years of experience, known for structured, quality-first hiring across AI, GenAI, Data, Product, Engineering, and Delivery functions. My scope includes hiring for AI and GenAI engineers, data engineers, data scientists, ML and MLOps specialists, as well as Product Owners, Product Managers, Delivery Managers, Program Managers, and senior technology leadership. I own the full hiring lifecycle, including workforce planning support, role scoping, scorecards, interview frameworks, market mapping, stakeholder alignment, and hiring governance. With strong understanding of the UAE and MENA tech market, I bring practical insight into compensation benchmarks, availability, relocation dynamics, and senior-level decision making. If you are building or scaling an AI or digital product organization in Dubai or the region and need a senior hiring partner, feel free to connect or message me.
