Prior to Skyhigh, he led the human resources function for Aruba Networks, where he scaled the startup from 150 employees and $30 million in annual revenue into a global public company with approximately 1,700 employees and more than $700 million in annual revenue, before its eventual sale to Hewlett Packard. Before joining Aruba, Bean ran the human resources function for Juniper Networks’ Security group as it completed back-to-back acquisitions of NetScreen and Neoteris. Prior to that, he served as Vice President of Human Resources and Corporate Services at Alteon WebSystems, where he managed human resources, real estate and IT functions for the company as it grew from a venture-funded startup into a multi-billion dollar public company, before its acquisition by Nortel Networks. Bean holds a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Southern California.
