Originally a journalist and editor, Scott jumped on the web early on, teaching himself web development long before the existence of boot camps. Working at a number of startups with limited resources Scott had to master front-end design, back-end design, databases, and APIs, as well as product management, customer success, and support.
Later, as Taboola was scaling at rocket speed, he saw stressed-out colleagues struggling with the growing volume and took it upon himself to build tools for them. It was the ideal position to leverage Scott's technical background and comfort with business challenges.
Today Scott leverages all of that experience building systems and interacting with customers to help scaling startups succeed.
Yes. 🙂
With his unique career path and experience, Scott is able to navigate business and technical topics with confidence and skill. You can think him of like a Swiss Army Knife: he's got a lot of tools at-hand, and a positive, MacGyver-like approach to crafting solutions with limited resources.
Generally companies that have recently found their product-market fit and scaling are the sweet spot for Scott. His ability to quickly change hats and pivot to what needs the most attention is a significant asset to growing business that don't have mature processes in place yet. That said, Scott can add value at companies large and small.
