SSIMWAVE makes commercial hires to expand global presence

SSIMWAVE, a specialist in perceptual video-quality measurement, has made two sales appointments in a bid to expand its global market presence.

Carlos Hernandez has been appointed vice president of sales, international, and joins SSIMWAVE after more than a dozen years with Sandvine.

Brent Ross joins as director of sales, having previously held sales position with Imagine Communications and Digital Rapids.

“SSIMWAVE is building on our Emmy Award winning DNA to tackle one of the media industry’s greatest challenges: ensuring consistent video experience quality in a fragmented video environment,” said Steve McCartney, president of SSIMWAVE.

“Carlos and Brent both were eager to join SSIMWAVE because they share our vision of building a company whose solutions ensure optimal video experiences for viewers and drive customer satisfaction for media companies.”
