With over 25 years of experience working with corporate performance management (CPM) suites and platforms, Bob is passionate about helping businesses effectively and efficiently manage and streamline their CPM processes.

Bob started his career as a Satellite Systems Engineer at SAIC in 1987. In that capacity, he gained an appreciation for the processes and discipline required to design and deliver complex systems, and he acquired a strong passion for implementing software that solves problems for end-users. In 1995, Bob joined Hyperion Solutions and advanced from Senior Software Engineer to Vice President of Software Development over his 12-year tenure. Initially, Bob worked on Hyperion Enterprise, built the Hyperion Schedules module and managed Hyperion’s first OLAP product. Over the next several years, Bob invented, architected, implemented and led the development organization for Hyperion Financial Management (HFM). This was the first product with an OLAP engine designed specifically for Financial Consolidation and Reporting. He was later responsible for Hyperion Strategic Finance and assimilating the newly acquired MDM and UpStream/FDM organizations into Hyperion. In 2007, Bob left Hyperion to join Allegient Systems as Chief Technology Officer where he was responsible for a multi-tenant cloud-based SaaS solution. Bob is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts where he earned his BS in Electrical Engineering.
