San Francisco, Calif. – WEBWIRE

Today Vungle announced the hire of Kevin Reamy as its new Head of Human Resources . Reamy will oversee talent acquisition to support Vungle’s rapidly growing team, which has more than doubled since the beginning of the year. He will be based in the company’s San Francisco headquarters.

Reamy joins Vungle after four years at LinkedIn, where he served as the HR Leader for LinkedIn’s global technology organization. He has worked in HR for 20 years, amassing expertise in talent acquisition, startups, and team-building for companies including Nimsoft, Deloitte, Grant Thornton and KPMG. He also had a front row seat during the rise of Internet search as director of HR for AltaVista, which was acquired by Yahoo!

“I’m excited to be a part of such an innovative and rapidly-growing company like Vungle,” said Reamy. “The team here is so incredibly talented, and have a deeply rooted company culture that feels like joining a close-knit family.  I look forward to leading the search for top talent as we continue to grow.”

Vungle provides developers with the infrastructure and resources they need to integrate video ads into their apps. The company is growing fast, with over 1 billion video views served per month, and is scaling its team accordingly. Reamy will play an integral role in building Vungle’s team to meet the high-demand for its products.   

“I am incredibly excited to have Kevin join our team. His expertise and proven track record of helping to scale some of the most recognizable business and technology teams in the world will be crucial to sustaining the incredible momentum our business has shown so far,” said Vungle CEO, Zain Jaffer.
