AdeptID welcomes Dan Restuccia as our new Head of Product!

We’re thrilled to announce Dan Restuccia as our new Head of Product.

Dan has spent his career at the intersection of big data, workforce development, and advancing educational opportunities.

Dan joins us from Amazon’s Alexa team here in Boston where he worked on “unsolicited feedback” – if you’ve yelled at your Echo recently, Dan heard you – in pseudonymized form, he claims…

However – and more relevant to his new role with us – he served as the Chief Product and Analytics Officer at Burning Glass Technologies, transforming online job postings into an actionable data source about global demand for jobs and skills (AdeptID uses this data, along with real employment outcomes, as part of our approach to talent identification). Before that, he worked at JFF (an AdeptID partner and investor).

Dan’s research and products have helped to shape the national conversation on careers and the skills gap. He’s been featured in publications including the New York Times, Wall St Journal, and The Economist.

We’re so happy he’s found his way back to the Talent space so he can take on the very unfinished business of workforce empowerment!

He started his career as a math teacher (like Rebecca) at an urban public high school. He holds a BA from Brown University. He lives in Boston’s Jamaica Plain neighborhood with his two daughters and pandemic puppy, Penny.

Dan’s arrival rounds out AdeptID’s leadership team for this next phase of our growth. Assembling this group of Evan, Allie, and Dan (alongside Brian and Fernando) was a huge priority for the company for the first part of 2022 and we are so excited by the group we’ve brought together. Now, we have a lot of work to do to make inclusive talent intelligence available to all…
