Who is James Hall?

Jim has more than 20 years of financial management experience, and an established track record helping software start-ups manage high growth, profitability, global operations, and the transition to going public. Prior to Imprivata, Jim served as controller of the Web Applications Test Group at Empirix (a spin-off of the RSW Software division of Teradyne). At RSW he instituted programs that achieved profit margins of 25% during a time of rapid growth in the company.

Prior to RSW, Jim was corporate controller of SolidWorks, a CAD software start-up. As SolidWorks evolved from pre-revenue to $30 million in annual revenue, Jim launched all of the financial programs and systems needed to support and monitor this growth, including the global infrastructure needed to maximize profits and ensure adherence to various international legal and accounting requirements. His background also includes key roles at Teradyne and Digital Equipment and 10 years in the New York Treasury Department of General Motors.
