## Notes

(https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_excited-to-share-that-ive-returned-to-my-activity-7459644408720777217-e3GA)
- Looking back on 2025: "Codeium evolved and we rebranded to Windsurf. Google acquisition. Cognition acquisition. Combining products and teams. All while continuing to build, develop/promote, and maintain some form of productivity/growth in the spaces between." This is her first-hand account of running a team through the Google deal and the Cognition merger. (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_been-a-minute-since-ive-posted-so-eoysko-activity-7431783929742864384-xDMd)
- Stayed on through Cognition's July 2025 acquisition of Windsurf. Her LinkedIn role note reads "Cognition acquired Windsurf (July 2025)", and she led Sales Development at Cognition from Jul 2025 to May 2026. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
- Joined Codeium as its second SDR: "Grateful to Graham Moreno for the opportunity to join Codeium as the 2nd SDR and scale the best SDR team in SaaS." LinkedIn dates this to June 2024. (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_excited-to-share-that-ive-returned-to-my-activity-7459644408720777217-e3GA)
- Thanked "Patrick Circelli, Emily Cohen, Nicholas Erdenberger for the opportunity to build with you and the incredible talent team at Cog". (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_excited-to-share-that-ive-returned-to-my-activity-7459644408720777217-e3GA)
- Credits the Codeium/Windsurf sales leaders who shaped her: "A big thank you to Isaac Kim, Meredith (McCarty) Siewert, Dave Frankel, and Sandeep Shah for your coaching, guidance, and friendship." (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_excited-to-share-that-ive-returned-to-my-activity-7459644408720777217-e3GA)
- Handed the SDR org to Nick Mims, Kyle Stalder and Austin Mead ("I am confident that the team will continue to thrive under the leadership of Nick Mims, Kyle Stalder, and Austin Mead"). She called building it "one of the highlights of my career." (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_excited-to-share-that-ive-returned-to-my-activity-7459644408720777217-e3GA)
- Between recruiting stints she did field sales at Skyline Security (Brinks), Sep 2022-Apr 2024. She says she was "fastest person in company history" to hit 50+ sales in a month and was "Top Rep in the company" in October 2022. As Sales Manager she ran a team of 7-10 reps and "Finished in top 3% of sales org" in 2023. This door-to-door sales record helps explain why she was hired to build an SDR team. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
- SKO 2026 shoutouts include "Ben Carpenter-Nwanyanwu - EAE of the year" and "my last 3 promos to AE". Several of her SDRs moved into AE roles. (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_been-a-minute-since-ive-posted-so-eoysko-activity-7431783929742864384-xDMd)
- Her Codeium 2024 wrap-up post lists "Windsurf launch", "JPMC Hall of Innovation", "Series C (led by General Catalyst, Kleiner Perkins, & Greenoaks)" and "1000+ Enterprise customers & 800k+ individual users". These were the milestones she was selling and recruiting against. (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_codeiumwrapped2024-activity-7278905645070741504-zCbJ)
- Just before Codeium she was a Sr. Executive Recruiter at Blue Signal Search (Jan-Jun 2024). (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)

- Public headline says "GTM Talent @ Cognition". (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
- New Cognition GTM hires publicly thank her. Quin Moore wrote "I'm joining Cognition on the GTM team! I want to thank Nick Mims, Hannah Miller-Jones, Austin Mead". (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/quinmoorev_i-am-excited-to-share-that-im-joining-cognition-activity-7420950523677179904-XruC)
- Promoted Codeium in October 2024 ("Ridiculously proud to be a part of this team. If you hadn't heard, Codeium is making waves") and its AWS re:Invent 2024 presence. In Nov 2025 she posted "Cognition (the team behind Devin & Windsurf) is gearing up for Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent next week! Join us at our booth #779". (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_cognition-the-team-behind-devin-windsurf-activity-7398839753783050240--V_-)
- Started in tech recruiting at Betts (Associate Recruiter Nov 2020, Recruiter Aug-Oct 2021). A November 2021 post describes her approach: "I always seek the triple win - a win for my client and candidate boils down to a win for me". (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hannahjmj_recruiter-jobsearch-referral-activity-6866056463010344960-7k8k)
- From 2018 to 2022 she was a self-employed Brazilian Zouk dance instructor and event organizer. Her profile says she "Built the Brazilian Zouk community in Austin" and was an "Internationally booked artist", with events in Austin, Mexico and Brazil. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
- In a 2019 Zoukology interview she said she got into dance because "I lost a bet!" and named mentors "Walter Fernandes, DJ Kakah, Ivo Viera, Bruno Galhardo, Marc Brewer". She also described leading a "30 day intensive training in Rio" (Rio Zouk Training). This dance training camp is the only training-camp history found. (https://zoukology.com/interview-hannah-miller-jones/)
- Her GitHub account hannahjmj (created Aug 2017, Austin TX) holds small web-course exercises such as Basic-Portfolio, typographyactivity, day2activity1.html and hannahjmj.github.io. This looks like coursework from early coding training, not open-source work. (https://github.com/hannahjmj)
- Previous roles include Director of Sales Development at Cognition; Director of Sales Development at Windsurf; SDR Manager at Windsurf; Team Lead - SDR at Codeium; Sales Development Representative at Codeium; Sr. Executive Recruiter at Blue Signal Search; Sales Manager at Skyline Security (Brinks). (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
- We searched for olympiad, ICPC or competitive-programming training camp history and found nothing tied to her. Her background is recruiting, sales and dance, not competitive programming. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
- Location is Austin, Texas, United States. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahjmj)
