OYO has already begun onboarding over 50 mid-level tech talent and around 150 campus recruits from top universities across India. The candidates will go through rigorous competency-based technical discussions followed by detailed conversations with OYO leaders. Additionally, approx. 100 offers will be rolled out in the upcoming placement season.
Ankit Mathuria, Chief Technology Officer, OYO said, "At OYO, we believe in the philosophy to keep the 'geek' alive in our techies. We don't put our talent in a box. Instead, we allow them to think big and think differently. I joined OYO in January 2021 and so far, it's been a journey full of excitement. There's never a dull moment because everyone is driven by technology at OYO and everyone contributes, starting from the company's founder to our frontline executives. We've been blessed to have a diverse pool of tech talent and believe that each new bright mind will bring gripping ideas to the table, ultimately leading towards our goal to build a tech-first global platform that truly sets the tone for the future of travel. We welcome passionate talent that's looking for opportunities to make a real difference and fuel the next wave of growth for OYO. We promise an enabling working environment and an opportunity to experiment and innovate."
Dinesh Ramamurthi, Chief Human Resources Officer, OYO stated, "Over the past year and a half, we've been doubling down on our technology and pioneered several industry-first innovations to enhance customer experiences and maximise revenues for SMEs of hotels and homes. As an organisation that is deeply committed to solving problems with technology, inducting top tech talent is a key priority for us."
