SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sisu, the fastest and most comprehensive diagnostic platform for structured data, today announced two key additions to its leadership team. Berit Hoffman is joining as Vice President of Product, and Bryan Hamblin will lead Sisu’s sales organization as Chief Revenue Officer. Following a year of rapid growth and broad industry recognition, Sisu is poised for a breakout year. The company is planning to double its headcount in 2020 and recently moved into its new SOMA headquarters at 535 Mission Street in San Francisco.

Sisu is an operational analytics platform that helps companies diagnose why their most important business metrics are changing, in real time.

The company names large enterprises like Samsung and Upwork as customers.

“Despite all the data enterprises collect, most companies are forced to make decisions based on limited understanding of what’s actually driving change in their business,” said Peter Bailis, CEO and Founder at Sisu. “I’m thrilled to see the enthusiastic response from our customers so far, and I’m proud to welcome Berit Hoffmann and Bryan Hamblin to the team. Their experience and leadership will help accelerate our mission to inform every decision with data. ”

Sisu Bolsters Executive Team
To further accelerate growth and capture the market momentum towards operational analytics, Sisu is adding two key executives to the team:

Berit Hoffmann joined in January as Vice President of Product. Prior to joining Sisu, Berit led product for Google Hire and Google Cloud Talent Solution. At Sisu, Berit will be responsible for guiding the company’s product vision, roadmap, and execution.

“Sisu offers a unique solution to a fundamental business problem,” said Hoffmann. “Companies should no longer feel trapped by limited access to data and analyst resources. At Sisu, our mission is to help every enterprise finally get answers to their toughest business questions and I’m excited to join this strong team in pursuit of that goal.”

Bryan Hamblin is assuming the role of the company’s Chief Revenue Officer. Most recently, Bryan held the role of Chief Sales Officer at Gainsight, and previously built high-performing revenue teams at Alfresco and ServiceSource.

“There’s a market-defining opportunity ahead of us,” said Bryan Hamblin, Chief Revenue Officer at Sisu. “It’s amazing to see the impact that Sisu has on our customers’ growth and the speed with which they can get answers to their toughest business questions.  Executives need to know why their key metrics are changing in order to drive optimal results. I’m thrilled to join Sisu and build a world-class, customer-centric, high-execution team to realize this vision.”

Berit and Bryan will join Vice President of Marketing Grant Shirk, Vice President of Engineering Jay Laney, and CEO and founder Peter Bailis.
