me.
I’ve recruited people for commercial product development for over 15 years. I cut my teeth on C/C++ multi-platform software developers – medical device products, embedded systems, and hardware design. I like that world – it is challenging. I will always have a soft spot for folks with that kind of experience because I like their development rigor and ability to work well with challenging stuff: multi-threading/scalability/parallel processing/distributed systems. I can taste the difference between a super smart, passionate developer and someone who just writes code
.
Many of my clients work extensively in the LAMP stack (both php and perl). I work with companies using open source databases like PostgreSQL in addition to mySQL and I work with companies exploring Hadoop and Lucene and Tuscany. I help build and run data centers, I help make the smart grid secure I live in the cloud, provide actualization, and keep people moving with mobile technology.
I don’t just recruit technology folks – I recruit folks who lead them, folks who support the products, folks who sell, folks who create marketing plans, folks who manage user communities, and folks who make and create the underpinnings of the organization. My deep technical understanding informs everything I do. I am the recruiter who never stops chewing on how all the pieces fit together. Recruiting is always about positioning, and knowledge is power.
My work speaks for me. Ask to talk to hiring managers who have used me to get their own positions and to build their teams. You can talk to developers, marketers and even human resources people who will tell you I am fantastic. But the proof is in the pudding. Can I make finding the people you need easier? Can I help you take your company to where you want it to be? I know I can. I have never met a real requirement I couldn’t tackle successfully.
