Earlier in his career, Chia held leadership roles at Amazon, Cisco and General Electric. He also serves on the Board of Directors of Slickdeals. He holds a bachelor's degree in industrial engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, where he serves on the advisory board, and an MBA from Emory University.

Chia joins Housecall Pro during a period of continued growth for both the company and the home service industry. More than 200,000 Pros across the United States and Canada use Housecall Pro to strengthen customer relationships, grow revenue and run more efficiently. As software, automation and AI continue to create new opportunities for home service businesses, Housecall Pro continues to invest in technology which helps Pros save time, improve profitability and operate with greater confidence.

"Housecall Pro is an amazing company where the mission, market and opportunity all line up," said Chia. "The company was built to champion the Pro, serving the tradespeople and entrepreneurs who keep homes, businesses and communities running, with the scale, trust and product foundation to make their businesses meaningfully stronger. The opportunity ahead is enormous, and this is the moment to build on those strengths and accelerate technology and practical AI innovation across the platform to help define the next generation of Pro success."

"Stan brings the combination Housecall Pro needs now," said Beaudoin. "He is a proven public-company CEO, a scaled technology and platform operator, and a leader who has successfully guided organizations through periods of significant growth, transformation and innovation. We are confident he is the right leader to build on our momentum, continue championing the Pro and guide Housecall Pro through its next chapter."

Under Chia's leadership, Housecall Pro will continue expanding its platform and investing in AI-powered capabilities that help Pros spend less time on administrative work and more time serving customers, growing profitably and building stronger businesses.
