San Francisco, CA, January 11, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Ampush is pleased to announce the recent hiring of Mark Weiler as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and Geoff Shenk as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). Ampush, founded in 2009, is a social technology company that helps brands and agencies advertise on Facebook.

Mark Weiler, Ampush?s new CTO, is a seasoned, results-driven technology executive who brings to the company over 20 years of experience using software to solve problems. He was most recently the Senior Vice President of Engineering and Operations at MyBuys, a ?big data? company recognized by Internet Retailer as the Top Personalization Vendor between 2010 and 2012. Prior to MyBuys, Mark was VP Engineering at NorthStar Systems where he was part of the founding team responsible for the first several versions of the company?s leading Wealth and Asset Management solutions. He managed the B2B Channels team at Extricity and developed several pioneering products at Microsoft including the Exchange Server and LAN Manager.
Mark will provide technical and visionary leadership to the Ampush Engineering team and drive the architecture, design, and implementation of all products going forward. ?I'm excited about joining the team at Ampush as everyone is client focused, analytically-oriented and experienced in optimizing real-time data. That background, mixed with our talented, innovative and nimble engineering team is a powerful combination to bring to the table in the evolving social targeting marketplace,? explains Mark. ?I'm especially enthusiastic about how Ampush will be leveraging Open Graph with authenticated identity and declarative consumer actions and interests to catalyze the adoption of social."

Geoff has also held senior positions at Google and Walt Disney Internet Group.
?I?ve been impressed watching Ampush take their performance-marketing experience and pivoting to a pure social play, leveraging service and technology for the social sphere,? says Geoff. ?I chose Ampush because they came to the Facebook advertising space early and operate with high integrity, always working to achieve the maximum value for clients.?
