Stephen Van Hemmen Email & Phone Number

Stephen Van Hemmen is a Probationary Firefighter at City Of Guelph. Colleagues describe them as "I worked with Stephen for both of his internships at Mattermost. He fitted into the team with ease, primarily because of his deep understanding of product management and ability to work within different teams and contexts. In particular, Stephen was instrumental in ensuring that I was kept updated with new features and functionality to ensure documentation was both correct and useful to our customers. Stephen is calm, resourceful, displays natural leadership, and earned the trust of both his team and the organization quickly. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him and really hope to work with him again in the future." and "I was fortunate to be Stephen's manager during his Spring 2021 Co-op (Intern) term. Immediately I saw the great potential for him to be a leader. He proved to be a great team builder- the best we've had at Year Zero. He takes a very human-centric approach to leadership and mentorship. Always focusing on personal growth and skill development. The team loves him and he's a joy to work with. He managed leading both go to market strategy and initiatives and user research. He possesses an incredible amount of user empathy and was integral at leading the team to several feature and a v2 product launch. Managing customer feedback loops with product is absolutely his forte and has had a great relationship with both Product and Eng team members. I would gladly hire him again and can't wait to see what he does next! "
