Prior to Zscaler, Jenner held similar positions at AppDynamics, EOH, and HP Software, overseeing customer execution and delivery in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. As CCO, Jenner’s focus will be on delivering business value for DataRobot’s global customer base and ensuring their success. Former CCO, Marcus Braun, will take on the new role of SVP of Strategic Innovations, working alongside DataRobot’s CTO, Michael Schmidt.

Jay Schuren joins the executive leadership team as the company’s first Chief Data Science Officer (CDSO). Schuren joined DataRobot in 2017 as part of the acquisition of Nutonian and led the integration of its Eureqa’s software, which advanced predictive modeling capabilities to the masses.
