Vaishnavi will lead Everbridge’s efforts to enable global enterprise IT organizations to improve and automate critical operational processes by enabling IT professionals to interact and collaborate globally across key processes like service management, security operations, DevOps, release management and disaster recovery and continuity.

“Coming off a year of significant growth and having a vastly scalable and widely adopted communications platform, I am thrilled to be a part of a category leading company like Everbridge,” said Vaishnavi. “I look forward to working with this dynamic team to elevate our U.S. and international profile in the IT operations and communications space.”
