Stephen brings nearly 15 years of corporate finance experience in enterprise software, where he has built the financial and operational teams, processes, and infrastructure to support rapidly growing businesses. Stephen’s foundation of leading finance teams at public companies, including an IPO at Marin Software, combined with his many years of scaling some of the fastest growing venture-backed companies enable him to be a strategic partner across the business, taking a disciplined approach to growth while balancing near-term and long-term objectives. Most recently, Stephen was the Chief Financial Officer at Crux Informatics, a financial data integration company backed by Goldman Sachs and Two Sigma, and prior to that the Chief Financial Officer at D2iQ (fka Mesosphere), a leader in container orchestration and Kubernetes lifecycle management. Stephen has an MBA from the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley and currently lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
“It was an easy decision to join Traceable – there’s an incredibly strong team, great culture and phenomenal growth – and I believe the market opportunity is massive. I previously worked with companies in software and data infrastructure that enabled enterprises to build and run modern, microservices-based applications, and that experience not only highlighted how essential APIs are to the future of application development but also how easily APIs can expose an organization if they are not properly identified, monitored and secured”, said Stephen Jahn, “As the CFO, I am excited to be a part of a team that is pushing the boundaries of what is possible and driving the API Security industry forward. The challenges and opportunities that come with growing so quickly are what make this role so exciting for me and I’m looking forward to building the financial and operational foundation Traceable can scale on top of.”
