Hammerspace, Inc. appointed industry veteran David Bailey as senior technical account manager.

He will be responsible for working with strategic partners providing technical account management, training, and pre-sales engineering support.

Additionally, he will build and nurture relationships with the company’s growing global customer base to help enterprise and public sector organizations make unstructured data a global resource and dynamically orchestrate their data across multiple vendors and operators, without creating unnecessary data silos.

He has a track record of helping customers adopt and build strategic differentiation with new technologies. He was an early employee at Isilon and then Qumulo and drove efforts at both companies to build market-leading customer adoption and satisfaction ratings. He has specialized in storage and file systems for more than 30 years, assisting customers across industry vertical markets and use cases, including M&E, genomics, ML, cloud applications, research imaging and scientific applications. He has served as a technical specialist and customer evangelist within system engineering, sales enablement, and partner alliances teams of organizations including DDN, Qumulo, IBM and Dell EMC (now Dell Technologies).

“Dave is an incredible communicator with deep technical knowledge, business intelligence, and a passion for customer success,” said Tony Asaro, SVP strategy and business development. “With nearly 3 decades of technical experience with data-driven organizations and storage infrastructure, Dave will be a tremendous asset to our strategic partners and global customers that seek to gain insights and value from their unstructured data.”

“I’ve been following Hammerspace for years and have been consistently impressed with the team’s unique and visionary approach to data orchestration that revolutionizes how unstructured data is accessed and managed,” said Bailey. “I look forward to helping our innovative customers to utilize and control their distributed and siloed data, and ultimately transform their businesses.”
