Daxtra Technologies announced the appointment of HR technology veteran Michael Flannery as Chief Executive Officer. Flannery brings more than two decades of leadership experience in the human capital management and HR technology spaces. He most recently served as CEO of headversity, a workplace mental health platform, and previously was Chief Customer Officer at iSolved, where he oversaw operations and customer success for more than 175,000 customers. At Daxtra, Flannery succeeds Terry Baker, who led Daxtra’s successful launch into the enterprise HR market.
Founded in 2002 by Andrei Mikheev and Steve Finch, Daxtra brought pioneering artificial intelligence technology into talent acquisition. Today, the company continues to incorporate the latest advances in generative artificial intelligence into its core solutions for resume parsing and candidate search. Daxtra’s platform enables talent leaders to overcome the challenges of identifying, qualifying, and engaging high-quality candidates at scale, powering over 1 billion resume parses for its more than 2,500 clients. Its foundational technologies also serve as the candidate data engines for many applicant tracking systems and a wide partner ecosystem.
In 2025, Daxtra launched TalentFlow, an agentic AI-powered platform designed to automate and streamline sourcing, matching, screening, and candidate communication. The infusion of advanced AI models into Daxtra’s workflows has improved both accuracy and recruiter throughput, significantly reducing the time needed to identify and screen top quality talent. This launch represents a pivotal step in Daxtra’s evolution, and with Michael Flannery joining as CEO, the company is positioned to shape the future of recruitment—rearchitected with agentic AI at its core.

I’m thrilled to join at such a pivotal moment for AI and lead the company’s next chapter of growth and market leadership.”
