"I am thrilled to have Jay join the leadership team at Protenus," stated Nick Culbertson, CEO of Protenus. "Jay has a deep appreciation for what it takes to successfully scale enterprise-ready engineering teams, which is exactly what Protenus needs as our growth continues to accelerate."

"I believe that diverse and empowered engineering teams that have clear objectives deliver the best results and value to our customers," said Jay. "I'm thrilled to join a team that has a foundation of engineering patterns and processes in place, as well as a culture that ensures each team member's success as we work towards our organizational goals. I'm looking forward to helping the team scale, mature, and advance compliance analytics in healthcare."

While serving as Vice President of Engineering at Blackboard, Jay focused on building high-performance teams with organizational and process maturity. Jay has a passion for aligned objectives at every level of an engineering organization, specifically to empower decision-making by those closest to the work. At Blackboard, Jay championed an OKR-based management system through a 700+ person engineering organization and also sat on Blackboard's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion executive steering committee to support the values of DEI within the engineering teams.
