Nogin Accelerates Focus on Next-Gen Technology Investments, Welcomes New CTO, CMO and CPO to Drive E-Commerce Innovation, Divests Fulfillment Operations
February 27 2024 - 8:00AM
Nogin, a pioneer in Commerce-as-a-Service (CaaS)
e-commerce technology and services, today announced a significant
realignment of its business strategy to focus more intensely on
next-generation technology investments in artificial intelligence
(AI), analytics, multi-channel e-commerce, full lifecycle digital
marketing, and world-class UX/Design. This strategic refocus is
aimed at bolstering Nogin's core capabilities in delivering
advanced e-commerce solutions to its partners and customers.
In a pivotal move to drive e-commerce
innovation, Nogin has expanded its leadership team by welcoming
three key senior executives: Shoab Khan as Chief Technology Officer
(CTO), Munan Xue as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), and Chaim Sash
as Chief Product Officer (CPO). Each brings a wealth of experience
and expertise to Nogin, positioning the company to lead the charge
in e-commerce technology and service offerings. These executives
report to Shahriyar Rahmati, Nogin’s COO and CFO.
Shoab Khan, with his extensive
expertise in software engineering and technology leadership, brings
a wealth of experience in driving innovation and scaling technology
platforms to support growth. Munan Xue, an accomplished digital
marketing leader, joins Nogin with a proven track record in
amplifying brand visibility across several key consumer verticals
where he used a variety of strategies and tactics to identify,
cultivate and monetize audiences. Chaim Sash will leverage his deep
understanding of human-centered UX design, customer journey
analysis and consumer insights work to refine and expand the ways
Nogin clients go to market and speak to their audiences. We are
fortunate to have these individuals on our team, as they not only
bring demonstrated strategic perspectives, but are also very
hands-on in the implementation of those strategies with their
respective teams.
Jon Huberman, CEO of Nogin, expressed
his excitement about the company's future direction, stating,
"Welcoming Shoab, Munan, and Chaim to our team marks a
transformative moment for Nogin. Their collective expertise in
technology, marketing, and product development will be instrumental
in propelling us forward, ensuring that we continue to provide
cutting-edge solutions to our partners and set new standards in the
e-commerce industry."
“With these additions, we have not
only completed assembling individuals with exceptional
capabilities, but we’re also fortunate that this team, including
myself and Arash Beheshtian, our Chief Analytics Officer,
previously worked together at RugsUSA to build it into a highly
successful multi-channel ecommerce business,” said Shahriyar
Rahmati, COO. “The capabilities that we honed during our past work
together involved excelling within a landscape of international
activities, managing multi-channel ecommerce across direct,
marketplace and retail channels, selling products across multiple
categories and orchestrating a complex global supply chain. These
are capabilities that separate high-performing brands from others
and our clients are already enjoying the benefits of these
strategic additions. Most importantly, these hires further cement
our core values of excellence, teamwork and accountability.”
As part of its strategic shift, Nogin
has also divested its fulfillment operations and has partnered with
Cart.com, a leader in omnichannel fulfillment solutions for middle
market through enterprise brands, as its preferred provider. This
move allows Nogin to fully concentrate its resources on advancing
its technology stack and enhancing its offerings for D2C and
Amazon/marketplace management, while ensuring its customers
continue to receive exceptional fulfillment services through
Cart.com.
This strategic realignment and
expansion of the leadership team underscore Nogin's dedication to
its mission of delivering leading-edge e-commerce solutions that
optimize conversions, drive growth, and enhance efficiency for its
partners. By focusing on innovative technology investments and
welcoming new talent to guide these initiatives, Nogin reaffirms
its commitment to being the premier provider of outsourced
e-commerce technology, tactics, and services.
