Joining the Engineering leadership team at iRobot next Monday is our new Director of Software Engineering (leftmost in photo). My staff and I welcomed her with an elegant dinner in the casual surroundings of the Nashoba Valley Winery Restaurant. It is apparent to me that she is going to be a great addition to an already impressive team of colleagues. I left the group to compare notes on working for me as I raced to my indoor soccer game in Acton. Despite an all too brief warm up, I managed a hat trick that contributed to an 8-5 win.
