Snagajob Welcomes Two VPs to its Growing Senior Leadership Team

OAKLAND, Calif., Oct. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Snagajob, the nation's largest marketplace for hourly work, today announced two recent additions to the company's senior leadership team, Daama Sheepo and Neil Rongstad, both based in the company's Oakland, CA office. Sheepo and Rongstad join an already impressive leadership team, furthering the company's commitment to improve the lives of hourly workers and drive the #1 marketplace for hourly work.

"I am delighted to welcome these two phenomenal individuals to Snagajob," said Jocelyn Mangan, COO of Snagajob. "Through their leadership, the company will continue to accelerate its pace of technology innovation that powers the leading platform for hourly work. By tapping into Daama's extensive experience building two-sided markets at scale and Neil's experience building the world's largest talent network, we have a tremendous opportunity to advance our product and marketing plans, empowering even better connections between workers and employers."

Sheepo, the new Vice President of Engineering, comes with 20 years of experience in coding and software engineering management. He spent the last seven years at Open Table, where he led the engineering team. He helped develop cutting-edge software for restaurants' table management systems and enforced engineering principles like test driven development and continuous integration using innovative technologies like Mesos, Docker, AngularJS and React.

Rongstad brings his proficiency in building functional infrastructure around marketing and global demand generation as the Vice President of Demand Generation. As the former Director of Digital Marketing and Global Brand Generation for Linkedin, Rongstad oversaw the global strategy, execution and performance management of acquisition marketing within LinkedIn Talent Solutions. At Snagajob, Rongstad will set the vision and strategy for demand generation projects to keep Snagajob in line with marketing, sales and revenue goals.

"During our conversation, it became clear Daama and Neil share our passion for ensuring success for hourly workers and the businesses that employ them," said Mangan.
