Caitlin
Byrnes
Talent

Caitlin knows firsthand that your early team defines the company you become. She partners with Audacious’ portfolio founders to build the best founding engineering teams in Silicon Valley.
Caitlin was previously the founding Talent hire at Gatsby, where she became Head of People during its hyper-growth stage. She built out & developed high performance teams across engineering, product, design, customer success, marketing, sales, talent and executive leadership, and helped scale the company from a popular open source framework to a high growth commercial SaaS product.
She graduated from Stanford University with an M.S. in Communication and B.S. in Political Science. She was also a national champion in women’s rowing, a D1 Varsity athlete, and represented the United States & won a bronze medal at the Junior World Championships.
When Caitlin’s not strategizing on how to build market-shifting teams, you can find her reading mystery novels, hiking, or brewing yet another mug of peppermint tea.
