UK payments platform Thredd appoints new CTO

Thredd has appointed Edwin Poot as its new global chief technology officer (CTO) as it seeks to further its product development and global expansion.

In brief:

- The UK-based paytech asserts that Poot will be responsible for delivering its payment offerings and bringing its “geographic expansion plans to life”.

- The new global CTO’s remit will contain every facet of Thredd’s technological strategy, including compliance, innovation and infrastructure, security and platform development.

- Poot has previously served as VP of product for Nubank, strategic advisor for Paxos, and most recently, as chief product and technology officer for the online consumer marketplace, Dayrize.

What does this mean?

He comments: “I am thrilled to be joining Thredd’s executive team where I can leverage my knowledge and experience to support their global growth goals. Previously, I have been at the forefront of shaping technology landscapes while steering high-performance teams, understanding both the intricacies of technology as well as the importance of being a strong leader.
