internet - I don't find anything in your statements that disagrees with my opinions. I only tried to point out that I hope to see SKS grow the company as a result of real need (sales) as opposed to perceived need. If you're suggesting that SKS needs to hire these positions in order to keep Wave competitive as the "go to" company of choice, I don't know if I agree with that, based on the job descriptions.
I think these last couple of positions are SE (Systems Engineer) and Senior Consultant type positions. One sounds like theres a need for a technical resource that can provide product marketing material (White Papers), respond to RFPs (customer requirements) and demonstrate product/technology capabilities during sales calls. The other position sounds like a Practice Director or senior consultant role, where this role serves as the SME for things that customers want to do with the tchnology in their enterprise.
Both sound like roles that best serve real customer needs, not perceived needs, or keeping Wave on top as far as having the best and brightest employees. Although, if they do hire these positions, I'm sure they will be bright. I am just throwing out the idea that I believe Wave, in advance of all of us knowing yet, may be starting to see a elevated level of interest in their technology. Maybe, they've even started to see some pipeline sales getting close to imminent, and have begun hiring in anticipation of the close. The absolute best scenario, for me, would be that they've already got a big win, or two in sales, and these sales have already shown that they will quickly take up all of their exisiting resources, and now they need more as back-fill.
We'll see. Either way, I don't want to see the burn go up without some revenue producing reason.
