Community Breakthrough: Shannon Ogborn @ Ashby
What happens when you mix a bold product and an avid customer base? You end up looking like Ashby.
Ashby just raised a $50M oversubscribed Series D to scale its AI-native hiring infrastructure, and the Ashby community has been at the center of its growth engine.
In the past year alone, Ashby has doubled its customer base, nearly tripled revenue, and launched bold initiatives including its RecOps Community, Ashby One, and ACE (Ashby Customer Expert) user groups to power this transformation.
At the helm of this movement is Shannon Ogborn, Community Lead at Ashby, who has taken her skills as a former recruiter to build intentional, high-impact spaces that fuel both product adoption and customer loyalty.
