Overview
Prajeetha leads People and Employee Experience at Atomicwork, an enterprise service management company. Her scope connects recruiting, distributed-team alignment, employee experience, and close partnership with the founders.
The Story
Prajeetha joined Atomicwork to lead People and Employee Experience as the company built a modern service management platform and expanded its team. Her remit spans both the operating foundations of the people function and the day-to-day experience of employees.
She works with the founders to translate company priorities into people practices and talent decisions. She also helps unite a geographically distributed organization around a shared mission.
Her role keeps her close to the product as its first internal user. That proximity gives her direct context on the workflows, customers, and technical domain that shape hiring and organizational decisions.
In recruiting, she sets a high bar for functional understanding and personal ownership. She expects hiring decisions to reflect the work candidates actually performed, the markets they operated in, and the outcomes they owned.
The role brings together people leadership, talent strategy, employee experience, and founder partnership inside a growing enterprise software company.
