SOC Hires New Professionals:
A Chief Technology Officer, Two Senior-Level Programmers, and a Quality Assurance Tester
SendOutCards has been a leader in the technology field from day one, and the marriage of existing technologies and hardware to accomplish the goals of card senders all over the world has been nothing short of amazing. Today, SendOutCards finds itself in a new technology battle, and that is the battle for efficiency and perfection in what we have done so well in the past. This battle is huge and has never been fought before.Just imagine how many images are uploaded daily to SendOutCards and the number of custom handwriting fonts that are housed on our servers. Imagine how much paper, envelopes, stamps, gifts, boxes, gift cards and people-power it takes to accomplish a production day at SendOutCards. With all this activity, there is a constant need to add additional team members to the programming team, and we've recently taken huge strides towards managing our technology:
New Chief Technology Office, Mike Whitmire
We will be adding a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to our company that brings twenty-plus years of experience with him in addition to his Computer Science degree. Mike Whitmire is an experienced leader in technology industry and has even been the architect behind many software and hardware products that you either use today or are aware of. We're glad to have him aboard as the team leader of a talented group of programmers.
Mike is a member a LinkedIn where you can view his experience, schooling, and recommendation. Here's a few recommendations that we enjoyed hearing:
“I worked on several projects under Mike's umbrella. Mike has an eye for the detail and an eye on the big picture with the projects he manages. His clear head in stress demanding times of the project life cycle always proved to be a winning quality. I'd be honored to have Mike as one of our project managers or to work with him on a project again in the future if we were so lucky to have our paths cross again.”
-Daron Spicher, QA Automation Engineer, Strata
"Mike was an amazing product development manager while he worked at Ultradent. His ability to understand the scope of a project within minutes helped get product out the door quickly... I could contact anyone working under Mike’s direction and they were always on top of any request ... I always appreciated Mike’s candid attitude when tough decisions needed to be made. He has fantastic problem solving skills and this translated down to the efficacy of the people he managed at Ultradent.”

New Senior-Level Programmers
SendOutCards will also be adding two senior-level programmers to our team. These are individuals who bring with them the expertise they have gained in other technology groups and are experienced in launching new products and technologies to the field. We look forward to the extensive knowledge they'll bring to our programming team.
New Quality Assurance Tester
SendOutCards will soon be adding a Quality Assurance Tester to our staff who will help us re-define how we launch new products. This person who fills this position with have the responsibility to use the system in a way that many users would everyday; however, their ultimate goal is to attempt to break the system in order to test thresholds prior to release. This position is being filled by a software engineer who will be able to use their experience and skill to test the integrity of our technology-based products.
With an already amazing, online card-sending system in place, and a rapidly growing gifting program, we look forward to not only a higher-quality card sending system but to the amazing capabilities we'll be able to offer card senders in the years to come. As an internet-based company we need the best minds working for us, and we're very excited to announce these new additions at SendOutCards.
