Onfido adds new talent in key executive roles

As Onfido scales into new global markets, the company has added new talent in key executive roles including Kevin Trilli as Chief Product Officer, Andy Wilde as Chief Technical Officer, Andy Leaver as Chief Revenue Officer and Lila Tretikov is joining as an Independent Board Director.

The new team members join the five-year-old company as it enters its next stage of growth, having recently raised a Series C round of $30m. These latest senior hires will provide guidance as Onfido builds its machine learning-based identity verification platform further into the US, and drives expansion into India, Latin America and other international markets.

Onfido currently services 1,500 clients across Europe and the USA.

Trilli has over 20 years of product and entrepreneurial experience in digital data security, privacy and governance and joins from data privacy management company TrustArc. He will lead the strategic evolution of the Onfido product platform to a leading provider of identity trust services.

Wilde has built, managed and led exceptional engineering teams across a range of technologies and markets and will lead Onfido’s 50-strong engineering and research teams as they continue to develop machine learning-based identity verification and trust solutions.

Leaver has been an advisor to Onfido for the past 18 months, and now joins the team to scale commercial operations through the company’s rapid growth.

Tretikov is the former Executive Director of the Wikimedia Foundation and sits on the boards of Rackspace, Crunchbase and Privacy Shell. A recognized authority in machine learning, Tretikov now specializes in startups focusing on security and privacy and was last year invited by the World Economic Forum to join its prestigious Young Leaders Community.

Onfido is headquartered in London and has offices in San Francisco, New York, Lisbon and New Delhi. Founded in 2012, the identity verification company has grown from 25 to 150 employees in just over 2 years, while growing revenue 5x year over year for the past three years.
