Former Salesforce and Microsoft executive brings decades of engineering experience to Marqeta, where he will build out the technology to support Marqeta\u2019s vision for the future of payments at global scale.\u00a0 <\/i><\/p>\n

OAKLAND, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nAs previously disclosed in Marqeta\u2019s Registration Statement on Form S-1 in connection with its initial public offering, Marqeta<\/a>(NASDAQ: MQ)<\/b>, the global modern card issuing platform, added Chief Technology Officer Randy Kern to its executive team. Kern will be responsible for scaling the global engineering team and driving technological advancements across the company.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cRandy brings decades of software engineering experience to Marqeta, and his experience leading development teams and building software products that serve hundreds of thousands of customers will be vital in our next phase of growth,\u201d said Jason Gardner, Founder and CEO of Marqeta. \u201cAs we continue to evolve our product offerings to meet new kinds of customer demands for payments at massive scale, Randy has the engineering skillset and leadership experience required for us to continue to outpace the competition.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nRandy previously spent seven years at Salesforce, where he held the Chief Customer Technology Officer and Executive Vice President of Infrastructure Engineering roles.

\n\u201cFrom my first conversation with Jason, I knew Marqeta was a different kind of company,\u201d said Randy Kern. \u201cMarqeta is challenging the status quo with a really innovative API-led approach, and I was drawn to a company solving such complex problems.
