From its latest string of new hires, StreamGuys brings on Megan Killion as its vice president of sales and marketing, a newly-created position.
In this new role, Killion will “develop strategic initiatives that build a stronger sales culture across the organization, with an emphasis on driving new business and increasing close rates,” according to a company press release. She will report to StreamGuys President Kiriki Delany.
Killion brings 15 years of B2B technology sales and marketing experience to StreamGuys, having already formed professional ties with the company through past roles.
Said roles include executive positions at CacheFly, a CDN network where she served as vice president of strategic sales and marketing, as well as at her own MKC Agency, where she worked with StreamGuys on branding and outbound marketing initiatives.
“These experiences, along with previous similar positions [at] Ericsson UDN and long-term consultancies with Mutable, Reblaze, and StackPath, provide Megan with a broad knowledge of the technology infrastructure that StreamGuys excels in across the CDN, cloud, edge computing and streaming universe,” said the company.
“More importantly, she knows how to translate product and technology language into sales success for new and existing clients, and move successful companies like StreamGuys into lucrative new markets.”

In the announcement, Killion said one of her goals is to help StreamGuys better market their existing services and find ways to better support customers.
“My experience working in the technology space suggests that few companies really understand why they need both a strong sales culture and engineering vision,” said Killion. “StreamGuys has both excellent sales and engineering teams in place, and they work very hard to service their customers and deliver on the technology promises they make. I am excited to bring these operations even closer together.”
