SAN
FRANCISCO, June 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign
(NASDAQ:DOCU) today announced that Paula
Hansen will join the company as President and Chief Revenue
Officer and Sagnik Nandy will join as Chief Technology Officer on
August 5, 2024 — completing the
company's senior leadership team for its next phase of growth.
Reporting to Docusign Chief Executive Officer Allan Thygesen, the two new leaders will
lead Docusign's sales and partnership functions and its
engineering function, respectively, to fully capitalize on the
company's recently announced expansion into a new SaaS category:
Intelligent Agreement Management.
Earlier this year, Docusign unveiled Docusign IAM, an
Intelligent Agreement Management platform and suite of applications
to lead that category, which rolled out to U.S. customers on
May 30, 2024. Leveraging the
deep experience of these two senior leaders in pioneering new
innovation and growth at scale, Docusign IAM will help businesses
of all kinds transform agreement data into actionable insights,
accelerate contract review cycles, and boost productivity
organization-wide.
"Docusign's transformation is well underway as we begin to
deliver our new, AI-assisted, IAM platform to customers around the
world — and these additions complete the team of impressive senior
leaders that will execute that vision," said Thygesen. "Paula's
growth-focused leadership, combined with her demonstrated ability
to execute and deliver value for enterprise customers will be an
invaluable asset as we continue to bring Docusign IAM to the global
market, while Sagnik's technical vision and deep
enterprise-solutions expertise will help our engineering team scale
with increased innovation for this next chapter."
Paula Hansen will join Docusign
as President and Chief Revenue Officer, leading enterprise and
commercial sales and partnership teams worldwide. Most
recently, Hansen served as President and Chief Revenue Officer at
Alteryx, where she was responsible for leading the global
go-to-market (GTM) organization, which includes worldwide sales,
sales engineering, partners, marketing, customer experience,
customer support and revenue operations.
Earlier, she served in senior sales leadership roles at SAP and
Cisco. At Docusign, she'll partner with Robert Chatwani, President of Growth, and
Anwar Akram, Chief Operating
Officer, on go-to-market strategies and initiatives.
"Docusign is an iconic company addressing one of the largest
remaining white spaces left to tackle in SaaS: Intelligent
Agreement Management," said Hansen. "Poor agreement management and
outdated systems cost businesses time, opportunity, and nearly
$2 trillion in global economic value
every year. Docusign IAM will help change that — driving real
business impact for Docusign's customers, in a way that wasn't
possible before."
Sagnik Nandy will join Docusign as Chief Technology Officer,
leading all aspects of engineering, research and engineering
operations. Most recently, Nandy served as President and Chief
Development Officer at Okta, where he led product, engineering and
design for the Workforce Identity Cloud, which includes their core
identity and access management platform. Earlier, he served as a VP
of Engineering at Google. At Docusign, Nandy will partner closely
with Dmitri Krakovsky, Chief Product
Officer, who leads product management and design.
"Docusign is uniquely positioned to offer distinct, AI-assisted
solutions that are designed with specific agreement needs and pain
points in mind," said Nandy. "It's clear Docusign has found a
compelling path for innovation that I believe can materially
reinvent how business runs for the better. I'm excited to help them
do that."
President of Worldwide Field Operations, Steve Shute, and current Chief Technology
Officer, Kamal Hathi, will be
leaving Docusign after the end of Q2, ensuring continuity until the
new leaders are in place.
"We are very grateful to Steve and Kamal for their significant
contributions to the transformation of Docusign over the last
several years," said Thygesen. "Our evolution to Intelligent
Agreement Management would not have been possible without their
efforts."
