Mobile marketing tech company Fiksu is gaining ground. On Friday, Fiksu announced it has hired its first-ever chief financial officer, Ken Goldman. Goldman is the former CFO of Black Duck Software, and will be the newest executive to join the Downtown Boston firm.
Goldman is a seasoned tech veteran, having ushered numerous companies through acquisitions and initial public offerings in the past 30 years. From 2006 to 2008, he built the systems and infrastructure to take Salary.com public. The IPO was eight times subscribed and sold more shares than anticipated. In addition to Salary.com, Goldman has worked at Lodestar Corporation, Student Advantage, MediaMap and Shoplink.com, among others.
“We’re thrilled to expand the strength of our executive team by bringing Ken on board,” said Fiksu CEO Micah Adler in a statement. “His proven track record of driving growth for companies in rapidly changing industries is impressive. We’re looking forward to leveraging his experience and expertise to help Fiksu evolve to the next level and realize its full potential.”
Founded in 2008, Fiksu has raised a total of $16.7 million in funding from Charles River Ventures and Qualcomm Ventures.
