James Dean
Vice President of Network Engineering
Hi, nice to meet you I’m James Dean, a few fun facts about me…
- I had a TV appearance on Alan Carr back in 2015.
- ChatGPT is my new best friend.
- I ran the London Marathon in 2018.
Here at Hamilton Barnes, I am the VP of Network Engineering. After close to 9 years supporting ISPs in the UK, and building our team of recruiters across Europe, I decided it was time for a new adventure. I now support businesses on the East Coast, predominantly in the DMV area, in finding the very best talent for their Network Engineering teams.
Our technology focus is:
- Networking (LAN & WAN): Cisco, HP, Juniper, Arista, Alcatel, Extreme
- Software Defined Networking: Cisco ACI, VMware NSX, Juniper Contrail
- Network Automation: Python, Ansible, Terraform
- Network Security: Cisco, Checkpoint, Juniper, Fortinet, Palo Alto, F5
- Unified Communications: Cisco, Avaya, Mitel, Aastra
- Wireless LAN: Cisco, HP/Aruba, Ruckus, Aerohive
A few of the team's success stories so far…
- Grew out and placed 72% of the Network Engineering team for a global technology start-up, which now has a billion-dollar revenue stream.
- Supported the growth of a global MSP, across 14 placements within a 5-month period. This was focused across their R&S, Security, Wireless and Collaboration practice.
- We were brought on board by a leading multinational investment bank to assist with their global technology transformation. This involved placements across their R&S, Security, Collaboration and Data Centre practice globally, ranging from support to VP level hires across an 8 month period.
