Postman was developing a new vertical within Postman Labs and sought an ideal candidate with IC expertise in both backend and frontend development. They needed a leader with a product mindset, who had previously built and scaled a product and had experience co-founding B2B SaaS companies.
Postman was meticulous in their requirements, seeking a candidate who understood their product and was confident in their ability to build and scale it over the next 3-5 years. Despite their efforts, they couldn't find the perfect match and ultimately sought Purple Quarter’s assistance to find the right fit for the role.
