Technology, engineering, operations and project delivery teams to be expanded over the next 12 months, with special focus on all levels of electronics, mechanical and software engineers.

DeepStream Technologies is beginning a recruitment drive to hire 30 new engineers, technicians, project managers and related specialists in support of its ambitious growth plans for 2008.

DeepStream will strengthen its technology, engineering, operations and project delivery teams over the next 12 months, with special focus on all levels of electronics, mechanical and software engineers.

The company will also be recruiting line technicians, automation engineers, and project managers with engineering backgrounds, to help deliver global design and manufacture projects for the building automation, industrial control and energy management product sectors.

It is also looking for personnel with business development and account management skills to manage its original equipment manufacturer (OEM) clients.

DeepStream currently employs 72 staff and recently restructured the organisation to create two distinct business units - DeepStream Solutions and DeepStream Components - appointing Martin Roberts as VP Design and Development to head up Solutions, and Paul Yates as VP Operations to lead Components.

Jonathan Luke was appointed Chief Technology Officer in the reorganisation.

The recruitment campaign, entitled "Target 100", will comprise online advertising on the websites of electronics and engineering trade publications and on online job-sites, as well as a new look careers section on DeepStream's own website.

According to Mark Crosier, Chief Executive Officer, DeepStream Technologies: "We achieved excellent growth in 2007 and we plan to build on that in 2008.

To do this we need to rapidly expand our team to ensure we have the right skills to fulfill our ambitions as a company".

" "We're proud to be building a hi-tech manufacturing company when so many similar firms are outsourcing or moving overseas.

We have a number of significant projects for major multinational firms we're working on, the new staff will be crucial to us delivering these and demonstrating the value and potential of our technology".
