Sovren was founded in 1996 as a staffing business focused on the financial and accounting markets. The next year we evolved into a software solution provider — then we decided to dive even deeper. We found our true calling by providing top-of-the-line job order/resume parsing and AI matching software components rather than end-user products. Throughout the whole journey, we’ve remained 100% employee-owned.
After graduating from business school at the University of Virginia and trying his hand at banking, Robert forged his own career path by founding Sovren with a friend and fellow banker. He originally designed and architected all of Sovren's core products and still stays involved in the nitty-gritty of his company's tech. Outside of work, he enjoys rock climbing, kayaking, auto racing and bicycling. He also supports a large number of local organizations in his hometown of Marble Falls, Texas, such as Camp Phoenix, Seton Project Search and various public departments.
Daniel is a software guru in his own right. He has designed and developed dozens of end-to-end software applications using the most advanced programming and database technologies available. His prior employers range from small tech startups (like Wireless Knowledge) to Fortune 500 companies (like United Healthcare). For fun, Daniel likes to swing around a baseball bat and enjoy America's pastime.
Shortly after earning a degree in industrial engineering, James discovered his true passion: software development. He honed his skills as a consultant in the Microsoft Solutions space, architecting and developing enterprise-level applications across industries. But once he discovered Sovren, he was sold. When James isn't at work, you might catch him playing beach volleyball or mentoring young men through Champions of Hope in Dallas.

Chris brings almost two decades of experience in providing technology solutions to the Staffing and Human Resources industries. He has extensive experience in leading small to large sales organizations, implementing company processes and aligning product offerings to different markets to successfully scale companies. When Chris isn’t working he’s a struggling golfer (but getting better), a self-proclaimed master griller, and most importantly a dad and husband to a family of five (counting our dog).
Amanda has spent a decade working in accounting for a variety of industries: at a Big Four firm, then in home building, clean energy and healthcare services. Now she spends her days keeping Sovren's finances in order. When she's not balancing books, Amanda is balancing her hobbies — knitting, crafting and as much voiceover work as she can handle. (Yes, that is her voice on the Sovren voicemail greeting.)
Once JW took a "Programming 101" course in high school, his path was set. Since completing his Master's in MIS from Texas A&M University, he has worked at different companies in various roles. But throughout it all, automation and intelligent algorithms have always been his bread and butter. Nights and weekends, you'll find JW tinkering with electronics, hunting or playing guitar around Dallas with his band.
As a child, Kash first gained interest in programming by drawing shapes with a turtle on an old Apple II. Since then, he grew quickly as a consultant in the Microsoft technology stack building enterprise level solutions with a passion for large data analysis and machine learning. Outside of his geek life, he loves playing sports of any kind and falling asleep in the sun at music festivals.
It wasn't until the end of his time at the University of Colorado that Matt discovered his love for programming. Not much of a surprise as it was a natural fit for a Mathematics major who loved problem-solving. After graduation, Matt started his career in technical consulting, building enterprise software in all sorts of industries, and he later joined Sovren to help grow an already successful product team. In his free time, Matt can be found hiking with his two dogs, on one of his many bikes, or hitting the slopes on his snowboard.
