Summary

Honeycomb, a company focused on observability, marked 2019 as a pivotal year in solidifying observability as a recognized category and expanding their market presence, which led to the hiring of Chad Malchow as the new VP of Sales. Chad's experience in driving hypergrowth at GitLab and building sustainable strategies at Return Path is expected to enhance Honeycomb's sales team, strategy, and processes, allowing more engineering teams to benefit from observability solutions. His ability to connect with engineering teams and understand their challenges is anticipated to foster strong, long-term customer relationships. As a distributed executive, Chad's role is particularly significant as Honeycomb adapts to a work-from-home model, contributing to the company’s evolution into a distributed organization and aligning with its core values and hiring philosophy. The leadership team, including board member Ariel Tseitlin, is enthusiastic about Chad's potential to scale the business and build on Honeycomb's existing strengths.
