Software, creator of the technology services industry’s first and
most complete business
automation platform, has named Chris
Owen its new director of development.

“We are very picky about who joins our team and we were particularly
careful when evaluating candidates for this role,” says Tigerpaw Chief
Operating Officer Joel
Vaslow. “Of the many candidates we considered, Chris offers the best
combination of a people-first mentality, technical skills and leadership
experience. He also has extensive experience leading teams in the
development and deployment of a wide variety of technologies. We are
very excited to have Chris join our team.”

Owen previously managed teams during his 11-year tenure at Gallup
and 10-year service at Hayneedle.

Owen has experience with Oracle
applications, Oracle databases and coding in PL/SQL and Java.

At Tigerpaw, Owen will oversee an ever-growing team of 17 that includes
developers, product analysts and quality assurance engineers. His first
set of projects at Tigerpaw revolve around re-evaluating and bringing
more transparency to the product release schedule, as well as three
strategic goals: continuing the evolution of the current product,
developing the next generation product and implementing integrations.

Owen says Tigerpaw appealed to him because of the chance to work on a
new product with a talented team in a fun,
tight-knit workplace culture.

“I really like developing people and helping them grow and get to where
they want to be,” Owen says. “And I am excited about the off-the-wall
atmosphere where we still get work done too.”

He and his wife Stacie have four kids, Avery, Camryn, Kelsie and Gavin.
