Unlike traditional executive placement firms, Riviera Partners leverages a state-of-the-art, proprietary software and artificial intelligence platform to recommend the most relevant candidates for career opportunities.

In order to meet increasing market demands, the company also promoted four key directors to partner including Isa Guardalabene, Jason Hann, Sandy Ma, and Sophie Thomas. The move will support Riviera Partners aggressive growth and the company’s strong belief that organic team development equates to long term success.
- Isa Guardalabene specializes in placing engineering executives at early and growth stage companies such as Getaround, Blend, Tonal, and Planet Labs.
- Jason Hann focuses on placing senior level engineering leadership at public companies such as GitHub and Five9, as well as Venture backed companies like Caffeine, Course Hero, and SmithRX.
- Sandy Ma has expertise in engineering and product leadership roles at the Director, Sr. Director, and VP (for succession planning) levels for high growth companies including DoorDash, Grubhub, Amplitude, and PagerDuty.
- Sophie Thomas specializes in helping mid to late stage companies scale and has worked with clients such as Autogrid, Databricks, Glassdoor, Nuro, Thumbtack, NimbleRx, Shipt, Twilio, and RigUp.
