We are delighted to welcome Ryan Pestano to the Bedrock Platform team. Ryan takes up the newly created post of Chief Product Officer and will be instrumental in developing strategies to ensure we deliver products and services that help customers tackle the challenges of the ever-changing world of programmatic advertising.

Ryan will work closely with our internal teams to manage the technical delivery of our offering and coordinate this with the engineering team. He will also look at our strategic partnerships to ensure the best-in-class integrations are included with the Bedrock Platform.

Ryan’s highly successful career in the advertising technology sector spans more than 20 years, with previous roles including Vice President (VP) of Product Development at IPONWEB (now part of Criteo) and VP of Product and Operations at Amobee (which was bought by Tremor International and became Nexxen following a rebrand).

 

Commenting on his appointment, Ryan says:

“I have a passion for innovation and launching new business models. Bedrock Platform is poised to be a key player in powering the evolution of the programmatic ecosystem providing an end-to-end infrastructure solution. To me this means working with the best and brightest in the industry to incubate new ideas during a time where there will be accelerated change as more advertising becomes digital and executed programmatically.”

 

James Ryall, Chief Operating Officer, explains:

“Having Ryan’s depth of experience in the programmatic space and product development expertise will supercharge Bedrock Platform’s demand side infrastructure offering. Welcome to the team Ryan!”

 

Shane Shevlin, CEO, adds:

“Having worked with Ryan previously, I’m excited to get the opportunity to do so again. His highly organised approach to managing technical delivery across a packed roadmap will be a huge asset to Bedrock Platform. Our toolset will continue to evolve and having somebody as commercially minded as Ryan manage prioritisation and delivery will be key to our success. Great to be working together again Ryan!”
