Clearleap Hires COO

Multiscreen video specialist Clearleap has hired Joe Oesterling as chief operating officer, reporting to company CEO Braxton Jarratt.

Oesterling most recently served as EVP of technology and operations for Cbeyond, an Atlanta-based provider of managed services to small- and mid-sized businesses.

As Clearleap COO Oesterling will endeavor to further develop and scale the company’s engineering and operational processes and systems and assist with the Clearleap’s international expansion strategy. Clearleap raised a $20 million “C” round last November  to fuel that effort, and expects to add 150 employees this year. 

Clearleap, launched in 2008, counts HBO, Verizon Communications, Time Warner Cable, Scripps Networks and In Demand among its customers.
