DataRobot has named Dan Wright as its new Chief Executive Officer as the company seeks to further accelerate its growth and adoption of its Enterprise AI Platform.

Wright has served as DataRobot's President and Chief Operating Officer since January of 2020 and succeeds co-founder Jeremy Achin.

"Since moving to Washington, D.C. in July to help with the Covid-19 response, I've gained a deeper understanding of the problems we face as a country and the threats to our nation's security," said Jeremy Achin, co-founder of DataRobot.

"I put a lot of effort into recruiting Dan to DataRobot more than one year ago with the goal of eventually having him take over running the company for me, and today I remain 100% committed to staying involved as much as needed to help Dan and the rest of the amazing people at DataRobot build an iconic company," he added.

Prior to joining DataRobot, Wright served as Chief Operating Officer at AppDynamics, the leader in application performance management.

In December of 2020, DataRobot announced it raised $320 million in a pre-IPO funding round led by Altimeter Capital.
