The business challenge
Rubrik was scaling rapidly across the US and Europe. Its growth depended on building highly specialised customer-facing technical teams in a competitive market where the combination of deep technical capability and customer experience significantly narrowed the available talent population.
The Talent Ecosystem
talent.ai created Talent Ecosystems around the specialist technical capabilities Rubrik needed, mapping relevant talent across the US and Europe.
The ecosystems included Escalation Engineers, Solution Architects, Developer Advocates and technical leaders, creating visibility of the people with the specific combination of technical expertise and customer-facing experience relevant to Rubrik.
Rather than treating each requirement as an individual search, Rubrik had access to defined populations of specialist talent around the capabilities it repeatedly needed.
The outcome
Using this intelligence, Rubrik was able to directly engage and recruit from these specialist technical Talent Ecosystems as the organisation scaled.
More than 50 hires were made across the US and Europe within six months, supporting the development of Rubrik’s customer-facing technical capability and Centres of Excellence.
