Sam Fitzroy is the co-founder and CEO of Dalia, a Boston-based candidate conversion platform that re-engages job seekers who visit career sites but don't apply. A former Indeed early employee and later VP at The Muse and partnerships lead at Jobcase, he started Dalia in 2019 and raised a $5M Series A in January 2023. His pitch, delivered in interviews with a kind of exhausted evangelism, is that 75% of applicants drop off at the account-creation step, and someone should probably do something about that.
Fred Goff is the co-founder and CEO of Jobcase, the Cambridge-based social platform built for and around workers rather than recruiters. A first-generation college graduate from Toledo, Ohio, he ran roughly a billion dollars in emerging-markets trading on Wall Street before turning a machine-learning hedge fund team loose on the labor market in 2009. Jobcase now counts more than 130 million registered members and ranks among the largest online destinations for career services. Goff has become one of the more vocal executives arguing that the AI era should put people first, a stance that landed him on the 2026 TIME100 list.
David Krauter is the CEO of Going, the flight-deal company that has saved members more than $1 billion since 2015. A Cornell-trained operator, he spent over a decade at Tripadvisor where he ran SmarterTravel - the portfolio behind Cruise Critic, Jetsetter and AirfareWatchdog - and tripled its revenue. He went on to lead the art-and-collectibles marketplace Invaluable as COO then CEO, ran the social-events company Yaymaker, and built consumer growth engines at Jobcase. Through his firm Shalestone Capital he advises and invests in technology companies. In March 2026 he stepped in to pilot Going's next chapter of growth.
