WHO WE ARE

People. Partnership. Approach. Outcomes.

Digital Product Engineering Headquarters
Digital Product Consultants

We both ditched typical, unrewarding jobs and founded Dialexa on one key principle - to build a company where talented people can achieve amazing things and be excited about coming to work everyday.

Launched over a decade ago in 2010, by Mark Haidar and Scott Harper, the above principle still holds true.

Today, at Dialexa, we partner with daring pioneers from start-ups to Fortune 500s, helping them win their industry with technology. Building a better world along the way.

We create what needs creating. We invent what needs inventing, and we never stop innovating and improving. Blending product, strategy, and data with the realities of industry and invention. Delivering unparalleled value and optimal outcomes in everything we do, we are your trusted experts.

Expanding vision.

Our once small, focused idea continues to grow, exponentially. Similar to any great story, the chapters ahead are even more compelling than the ones before.

In November 2022, Dialexa was acquired by IBM – broadening our product engineering capabilities to build even bigger and better solutions. Proving that our powerful thinking is even stronger than we could have ever imagined.

Moe Haidar

Chief Financial Officer

Moe is an accomplished financial leader specializing in aggressive software development consulting industry growth. Ten years ago, Dialexa was a scrappy technology startup that Moe helped rapidly scale—without any external investment or capital. The role was to oversee the financial well-being of the company, but his goal was aggressive growth. Moe built and managed high-performance teams and led accurate, actionable analyses and strategies to expand our fledgling company from minimal startup resources to a solid product engineering company. He heavily contributed to building and scaling the company’s foundation that now manages the strain of more than 70% annual growth, retains hundreds of people, and solves complex technical problems for the world’s biggest companies. It was only a matter of time before we caught the eye of IBM—and Moe subsequently led the financial process of IBM’s acquisition of Dialexa in 2022. His values have been the primary driver of his career. Moe is transparent, straight-forward, and ethical—always. He is also an innate problem solver and strategic planner who works well under pressure. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he built and led the financial plan that positioned Dialexa for not only safety, but growth while maintaining high employee and client retention.

We know her as Stephanie, but outside of the office, she has been lovingly dubbed “Aunt Sassy” by her niece and nephew.
