Vice President of Engineering Paul Algren comes from DemandTec, provider of cloud-based analytics software for retailers, where he led the science platform team and was instrumental in creating value for the company that resulted in its $440 Million acquisition by IBM. With over 25 years of experience in technology leadership and management roles of progressive scope, Algren will lead OptiMine’s engineering team.
“When it comes to driving disruptive innovation and growth, OptiMine’s most valuable asset is human capital,” said Thomas Donnelly, OptiMine CEO. “As we continue to innovate and scale to meet the complex challenges of today’s CMOs, attracting, developing and retaining top talent is critical. Our leadership team additions and new location solidify our foundation for success.”
