Paul Smurl shared this recommendation for Rajiv on May 31, 2016
via LinkedIn:
I worked with Rajiv at The New York Times for five years and then recruited him away to join a start-up as CTO and Chief Product Officer. He is a student of the latest technologies, a master of group dynamics and motivation, and beloved by his teams. Among many examples at NYT, he arrived during the paywall implementation and dove in immediately. He deftly juggled team conflicts, technical quagmires and epic expectations. We could not have launched on time or on budget without him. At Some Spider, he was instrumental in putting the original plan together, overseeing a major CMS migration, and making introductions to potential investors. And he continues to act as an advisor to us today.
As COO & President at Some Spider, LLC, Paul worked with Rajiv. Previously, Paul was Head of Product at The New York Times.
