Professional Journey
Magnet’s biography lists executive leadership roles at Network Equipment Technologies, Nuera Communications Inc., Application Security Inc., Fidelis Security Systems and SafeNet, which is now part of Gemalto. It gives no titles or dates for them. Magnet describes the thread running through that work as building and managing high-performance direct and indirect sales organisations. His particular skill is combining direct sales with partners and resellers to grow small and mid-sized companies quickly.
Before joining Magnet he ran a company himself, as chief executive of CloudCheckr.
At Magnet Forensics he is Chief Revenue Officer, one of the senior team led by chief executive Adam Belsher and president John Curry. Magnet was founded in 2011 by Belsher and Jad Saliba, a former police officer whose frustration with the digital evidence tools available to investigators produced the company’s first software. It listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and was then acquired by Thoma Bravo, which completed the deal in April 2023. Thoma Bravo combined Magnet with Grayshift, maker of the GrayKey mobile device extraction tool, and the two now operate under the Magnet Forensics name. The combined company reports more than 5,000 customers in over 100 countries and has offices in Waterloo and Ottawa, Atlanta, Herndon and Singapore.
