Nikita Anofrikov

I build the hiring systems and people programs that help tech companies scale — without losing quality along the way. My focus is senior and leadership hiring in engineering, data, and operations — roles where the wrong call costs months, not weeks. I work with data obsessively: funnel metrics, pipeline health, offer conversion, quality of hire. Not to report on the past, but to make the next decision better. Over the years I've built TA functions from near-zero, cut time-to-hire for senior roles in half, and kept offer acceptance above 80% — while running a lean team. Hiring is only part of the picture. I also design the programs that make new hires stick: onboarding, recognition, engagement, performance enablement. The kind of work that connects recruiting to retention. If you're scaling a tech company and thinking seriously about how to hire better — not just faster — I'm always up for that conversation.
