Connected Devices VP Product Management Executive Search

NextGen Global Executive Search was engaged to fill a VP Product Management position for Kodiak Networks to solidify their connected devices product portfolio at the engineering design and production group of systems and software engineers in Bangalore.

The search was critical in regard to urgency and the impact the connected devices role had on the client’s business. The search was managed by Kelley Dorsey, Practice Lead and Executive Search Consultant who had worked with Kodiak on several other positions over the past three years.

We conducted a thorough search for candidates with experience in connected devices and voice activated systems who had worked in the USA for an US based vendor for several years but was also a native of the Bangalore area so it would be an easy cultural adaption.  The focus was on candidates that were currently employed making significant contributions in Connected Devices and had the skill level as well as a leadership fit.

Within a few weeks, Kelley Dorsey and her team identified two candidates who met the performance objectives of the role and would add value to the international management team.  The connected devices client was particularly pleased with our search method, how our team kept them informed throughout the process, the speed in which we executed, and the quality of both of the selected candidates.
