About Mark Halder

Contact Mark at Automation Product Direction, Technology Roadmap, Modernization, Market Research, Releases & Performance | Promotional & Sales Training Material | Presentations & Customer Events Since 2003, I have built a career with WhiteRoomAutomation, ElevateIOT and Honeywell’s MatrikonOPC Division, creating, servicing, and supporting automation products that modernize operations within manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, utilities, nuclear, oil and gas, water and wastewater, and food and beverage sectors. Beginning in Technical Support, I currently serve as a Senior Product Manager responsible for 2/3 of the business, driving new product sales on an 80-product portfolio. In 2014 I tripled an existing product’s annual revenue with effective marketing; this product is on track to once again double its revenue in 2015Each role has built my reputation for problem solving, building client loyalty and sales, decreasing tickets, increasing output and revenue; my performance directly impacts productivity and profits.I have also developed a reputation for innovating products and tools that meet with acclaim and stand the test of time. Examples include efficiency tools, standardized reports, introducing ISO-compliant policies and procedures, and especially the MatrikonOPC Explorer, which I proactively developed and which continues to be in downloaded and in use to this day.Highly collaborative, I also enjoy mentoring and empowering those who work with me. In fact, I enjoy people as much as technology, and I think this is what makes me effective in a client-facing role in a highly technical field. As for technical know-how, I am able to recognize complex code issues, evaluate feature’s cost vs benefits, and communicate these to the appropriate audiences.I enjoy organizing chaos, getting a project on track or keeping it moving. I enjoy my role, innovating successful strategies or resolving clients’ issues.
