Christine McKelvie has spent a decade doing the thing most fast-growing companies get wrong: building people functions that actually hold up under pressure.
Across agency, consultancy, and internal roles — at companies like Automata, Cambrian Robotics, and now Fyxer AI — she's scaled teams from single digits to 200+, halved time-to-hire, and built the HR infrastructure that lets founders stay focused on what they're building. She's done it four times over, from seed to Series B, across 16 countries.
She's also the founder of Brooklet, a boutique consultancy helping early-stage companies get their people foundations right before the cracks start to show.
At Fyxer AI, Christine sits at an interesting intersection: a talent leader who has lived the chaos of hyper-growth, now working at a company that's using AI to reshape how hiring and talent functions operate. She brings a practitioner's perspective to questions about where AI fits in recruitment — and where it doesn't.
