Engineering job fair tonight at the Brick Brewery

Start-up companies in Silicon Valley are looking to fill about 20 engineering positions — and have their eye on Waterloo Region.

The Disruptor job fair is soon underway at the Brick Brewery in Waterloo – it runs from 5-7 tonight.

Co-founder of Syndesus, Veronique St-Germain says employers are keen to draw from the local talent pool.

“The reputation of the Universities here is very appealing to companies in the US. As well, the employees who were at BlackBerry gained a tremendous amount of experience and skill.”

Employees would be able to work remotely for the American companies.

The event is hosted by Syndesus – which connects technology companies in the US with engineering talent in Canada.
