Holly Lee

I build and lead talent acquisition functions that scale with intention, precision, and long-term business impact. As an ex-Amazon recruiting leader with 20+ years of experience, I’ve partnered with executives to design and execute hiring strategies across AI, ML, emerging technology, and advanced hardware organizations—spanning both Fortune 100 companies and high-growth startups. I don’t just build recruiting teams. I build hiring systems that hold up under pressure. Most companies don’t struggle with attracting talent—they struggle with evaluating it. I focus on how leaders interview, how decisions are made, and how organizations consistently hire at a high bar. My work includes executive and technical hiring, workforce planning tied to business growth, recruiting org design, hiring manager training and interview calibration, and global hiring across the U.S., APAC, AMEA, and Eastern Europe. In parallel, I’ve built a platform translating how hiring actually works inside competitive environments, with 3.8M views on YouTube and systems used by thousands of professionals and leaders. I’m focused on Director / Head of Talent Acquisition opportunities and startup advisory work where scale, quality, and business alignment matter.
