/PRNewswire/ -- CoreWeave, the AI Hyperscaler, today announced the
appointment of Chen Goldberg as
Senior Vice President of Engineering, as well as Sachin Jain as its new Chief Operating
Officer.
Goldberg and Jain are technology veterans with long,
accomplished histories at the largest technology companies in the
world.
Goldberg has more than 25 years of expertise leading global
engineering teams, product R&D initiatives, and high-profile
customer engagements with Fortune 500 enterprises. She joins
CoreWeave from Google, where she worked across several roles at
Google Cloud, most recently as General Manager & VP of
Engineering, leading the Kubernetes and Serverless team and product
portfolio. She will join the CoreWeave executive team to lead and
grow engineering functions, as well as accelerate CoreWeave's
world-class product development and offerings.
Jain most recently served as Senior Vice President at Oracle
Cloud, where he led the company's AI infrastructure, data center
capacity and infrastructure product teams. Prior to that, Jain held
roles as Vice President at Google Cloud and Amazon. At Google, he
managed the capacity planning and optimization and supply chain
engineering teams, and played a central role in driving Google
Cloud to profitability. At Amazon, he held leadership roles across
pricing, fees, marketplace technologies, AWS and supply chain
teams – setting the strategic direction for top and bottom line
growth across various businesses.
"Both Chen and Sachin are exciting and critical additions to the
CoreWeave team," said Mike Intrator,
co-founder and CEO of CoreWeave. "Their vision for the future of
the AI cloud is strongly aligned with what we're building at
CoreWeave – in terms of a customer-centered development philosophy
and the power of automation – and their expertise is unmatched.
Their contributions to our platform will take CoreWeave's
industry-leading products and operations to the next level."
"I've been watching the incredible growth and customer success
that CoreWeave has accomplished in such a short amount of time, and
am thrilled to join this team with tremendous technical
excellence," said Chen Goldberg.
"CoreWeave is light years ahead and delivering what others cannot –
its modern infrastructure with unbeatable performance sets the
company apart. I look forward to building the next generation of
cutting-edge cloud technology alongside some of the best in the
business."
"I have been amazed and inspired by the phenomenal team at
CoreWeave and what they have accomplished," said Sachin Jain. "The fact that some of the largest
enterprise companies and fast growing AI labs are choosing
CoreWeave as their cloud partner is a testament to their
unparalleled innovations and relentless focus on customer success.
I am excited by the opportunities ahead of us and am eagerly
looking forward to being part of this incredible journey."
Today's news comes on the heels of significant momentum. Between
May 2023 to May 2024, CoreWeave raised a total of
$12 billion from top-tier equity and
debt investors. Recently, the company also announced its new
London office and subsequent
European expansion – creating over 120 new jobs across engineering,
operations, finance and go-to-market, and a commitment to invest a
total of $3.5 billion across
Europe. The company also continues
to grow its leadership bench with top-tier talent. Last week,
CoreWeave announced its new Chief Accounting Officer, Jeff Baker, who joined from Rivian and played an
essential role in its landmark initial public offering. In June,
CoreWeave announced Chief Product Officer, Chetan Kapoor, who joined from Amazon Web
Services where he was part of the Compute leadership team and
managed the Hardware Accelerated Compute business. Earlier this
year, the company welcomed Nitin
Agrawal as Chief Financial Officer, who most recently served
as VP of Finance for Google Cloud. With these additions, CoreWeave
is fueling its next phase of growth and pushing the frontier of AI
infrastructure forward. In 2023, CoreWeave more than quadrupled its
data center presence, and anticipates doubling that figure globally
by the end of 2024.
