Martins is passionate about creating high performing teams and delivering software that exceeds client expectations. "My mission is to build the best software team in the world," he said. "I look forward to working with our engineers and the entire Social Solutions team to continue to provide exceptional products and services for our customers."

Martins joins the company's leadership tam at an exciting time. Kristin Nimsger, who was named Social Solutions' CEO last month, has made clear her commitment to growth in order to positively affect even more organizations and the people they serve.



"Through our products, we intend to touch 40 million lives daily by 2019, and I am confident Joel's leadership will help us reach that goal," said Nimsger. "Joel's technical expertise along with his success and passion for creating and managing high-performing teams is exactly the type of leader that will help Social Solutions continue to grow."

Before joining MicroEdge, Martins spent over 14 years at Symantec (News - Alert), one of the world's largest software companies, where he led global teams in the development of software products for enterprise business. At Symantec, Martins was the Engineering leader for the NetBackup 7.5 release, the largest product launch in Symantec history at the time.


"We are constantly looking to improve our best-in-class products to better enable data-driven decision-making and usability for our customers," said Nimsger. "Joel's resume is second to none when it comes to developing innovative enhancements to trusted products that support scalability, simplicity and user-centric design."
