US based Courion Corporation identity and access management for access risk is planning to expand its wings by doubling the headcount for its centre, said Dave Fowler, CEO, Courion Corporation on Tuesday in Pune. It is hiring over 40 IT professionals from various engineering colleges and institutions like C-DAC.
Additionally, Courion plans to launch an internship program for college students and recent graduates who are interested in learning more about working for a technology company.
Commenting on this Fowler said, "Identity and access management market growth has presented the opportunity for Courion to leverage talent in Pune to build a global organisation. The successful hiring and unprecedented retention we have experience already reinforces the rich talent pool available, which will continue to be an asset to Courion as we grow."
He added, "Courion is looking for candidates who are technically strong, inquisitive and have a passion to learn new things on the job. This is critical to their success because Courion keeps innovating. Newly appointed candidates have an initial training period, but very soon they are put into the mainstream work so they get exposed to the Courion’s leading edge security technology and products very quickly. This provides a faster learning process for new employees. Courion finds it extremely important to make sure that new hires are properly ramped up and trained."
Courion opened its India technology centre 'Courion IT Private Ltd', in June 2009 to complement its US-based research, development, professional services and customer support capabilities. The company has partnered HCL in the few of projects for information security system.
Shishir Khedkar, director India Operations for Courion said, "We’ll work with University of Pune and other local universities to identify talent that will match the Courion culture and its educational requirements."
