ATLANTA, June 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Randstad US is pleased to announce Angie Keller, senior vice president of Randstad Engineering, will moderate the Women in Sensors Engineering (WISE) Program panel discussion at the 2019 Sensors Expo & Conference. The session will provide a platform for engineers to hear from female leadership, share their contributions to the sensors community and solicit advice. Panelists include:

Melanie Daniels, principal engineer, Intel Corporation
Allyson Hartzell, managing consultant, Veryst Engineering
Marlena Nickel Johnson, IoT Center of Excellence manager, Shell
Melissa Saelzer, technical program manager, Facebook
Jocelyn Tan, CEO and co-founder, SISU

"It's crucial for women to see and hear from strong female leaders in the field who are paving the way, and in some cases, shaking things up," said Keller. "Far fewer women remain in STEM occupations in comparison to those who graduate with a STEM degree. Why is that? Representation matters and Q&A discussions like the WISE panel is what inspires more women to speak up and stay in their profession."

The panel discussion will be held on Wednesday, June 26, 2019, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. PDT. For more information and to register for this event, please visit www.sensorsexpo.com/wise.

Additionally, Randstad US recruiters will be onsite to assist attendees with:

matching engineering candidates with the right job opportunities
finding the right talent for temporary projects or permanent work solutions
on-the-spot interviewing and resume advice

"It's no surprise that tech innovations are increasing the demand for engineers across all sectors. Conferences like Sensors Expo give attendees the opportunity to not only learn and grow but also network with some of the best in the industry," said Keller. "The Career Connection area provides an avenue for professionals to be matched with the perfect job opportunity — and we are thrilled to help facilitate those connections."
