Rackspace Grows Team Across Various Sectors of Development

Rackspace Hosting is undoubtedly one of the world’s leading hosting and cloud computing service providers, but as with every other corporate body especially in the IT sector, staying ahead of the pack requires the incorporation of new talent. New to the company that is:

“Newly joined Rackers include:
•    David Kelly as senior vice president of international business development
•    Amanda Nevins as vice president of finance
•    Paul Rad as vice president of technology
•    Kannan Alagappan as vice president of enterprise architecture
•    Ken Skinner as vice president of Fanatical Support®
•    Mark Interrante as vice president of product for cloud”

Specifics about just some of the new executives:  David Kelly has a vast amount of experience and a very impressive resume as Director of Customer Operations at Amazon and COO of lastminute.com among others. Additionally, vice president of finance Amanda Nevins has been featured in the 100 Most Influential People in Finance list, and vice president of product for cloud Mark Interrante has worked for Yahoo! as the vice president of media products.

Judging by their portfolio only this impressive team of professionals will definitely be seen making a real change in the company.  The new gang offers a range of expertise for the expanding Rackspace, particularly on a global scale.  The company has had several recent announcements, including the launch of a new visual studio, and the OpenStack iPad app, based on Rackspace’s own.
