Background

About Chazmon Flood

I map how talent moves—from both sides of the table. Over 12 years, I've placed 200+ engineers at AWS, Microsoft, Uber, Netflix, and high-growth startups, negotiating $20M+ in total compensation. I've led recruiting teams, built pipelines for cleared defense tech roles, and scaled organizations through strategic hiring. Now I help Talent Acquisition (TA) leaders compete for top talent through intelligence—not just job postings. Talent Intelligence is emerging as one of the most strategic functions in TA, and I help organizations access this capability without the 6-month search for a full-time hire. I also help tech professionals land $200K-$500K+ roles by understanding exactly how top companies recruit—because I've been on the inside. What I bring to companies- Talent intelligence for high-stakes hiring: AI/ML, Product & Design, GTM, Executive Search - Market intelligence, labor market analysis, and workforce planning - Deep experience in Big Tech (AWS), defense tech, and venture-backed startups What I bring to professionals- Career positioning that's landed offers at Netflix, Uber, AWS, Microsoft, Spotify, and Lockheed Martin - Negotiation coaching ($20M+ negotiated | Highest single offer:$781K TC)- Insider knowledge of how top companies actually hire Currently exploring: Talent intelligence consulting, fractional TI roles, Senior TA roles, and strategic TA leadership at companies doing cool work. I also write about talent intelligence, career positioning, and compensation strategy. Creator of The Tech Resume Playbook and Beyond The Tech Resume (Substack). Companies: DM me to discuss talent intelligence consulting or fractional TA leadership Professionals: DM me if you're targeting $300K+ roles
