Branden Lodato

Senior Technical Recruiter

Branden Lodato is known for effective and highly productive candidate sourcing, recruiting, and evaluation skills. He has placed hundreds of talented technical professionals in great tech jobs over his lengthy tenure with Elite Technical.


Having graduated the Computer Career Center program in computer networking in 1999, Branden began his career providing desktop, MS Windows, and server support including tier III technical support for Optimum (now Altice), a cable company based on Long Island, NY.


Branden had joined Elite Technical in August 2005, then after a brief hiatus to do missionary work, he returned to the recruiting fold. Today, he sources a wide range of technical professionals from a broad array of technical disciplines.


Branden attributes his success to staying focused, following up, and making every effort to be available to hard-to-reach candidates - even during off hours.

While Branden recruits for many technical disciplines, he is particularly successful in placing candidates in cyber security, network engineering, systems administration, engineering, and server administration positions. His own background in networking security provides an edge - with deep understanding of position needs and his ability to accurately assess a candidates capabilities, particularly in the cyber security area.


Branden's diligence and professional recruiting approach has repeatedly earned him Elite Technical's Recruiter of the Month award.


A sports enthusiast who was raised on Long Island, NY, Branden favors the New York Mets, Knicks and Giants. Branden and Amelda, his wife of 12 years, live in Winston, Salem, NC, with their young son.
