In this episode of the Future Proof HR podcast, Thomas Kunjappu sits down with Divya Devakran, Director of Human Resources at EVS Engineering, to trace her path from “accidental” HR to building a company GPT. Divya shares how she built EVS’s HR function from the ground up, why she started a passion project to create an AI-powered policy and coaching bot for her organization, and how she is thinking about psychological safety, guardrails, and the very real time crunch HR teams live in. She and Thomas also look ahead at what will separate tactical HR teams from future-ready HR functions in the next few years.
Topics Discussed:
- How a planned finance career turned into “accidental” HR
- Building an HR department from scratch at EVS Engineering
- Why Divya started building a company GPT as a side project
- Using AI for HR policy questions and anonymous support
- Coaching bots for new managers and real-time guidance
- Guardrails, hallucinations, and knowing when to route back to HR
