Bio
Robert Siverson
I was fortunate enough to work with Rob from 2002 through 2015 at ISE. As the Product Manager for the core trading system, I worked with Rob on a near-daily basis. Rob was my go-to person for ALL systems management needs. Early on this was in his role on the Level II support team. It was in this role that I learned that Rob had a deep and thorough understanding of the systems he supported and that I need only seek him out if I needed the right answer quickly. Through our tenures at ISE, Rob grew from the person with the answers to leading a group of people with the answers. When the inevitable issues came up in Production, Rob was quick to take control and home in on the root-cause in order to bring a swift resolution. I wholeheartedly endorse Rob for any role that necessitates a thorough understanding of current technologies and the approaches to supporting them

I had the pleasure of managing Robert at Dot Hill (formerly Box Hill Systems) for approximately two years. Robert was an ideal member of our technical team. His attention to detail and incredible work ethic were among his best qualities. Robert consistently handled multiple projects independently and efficiently. I was always comfortable with any project Robert was assigned to. I would gladly recommend Robert as a member of a technology team in any organization.
