CHICAGO, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- project44, the leading High-Velocity Supply Chain Platform, announced that Amir Siddiqi has joined the leadership team as Chief Customer Officer.

"Amir brings his experience to further elevate our customer experience and drive our company towards even greater success. He will help us nurture our high-performing, customer-centric teams, leading to substantial growth."

project44's number one value is to obsess over the customer. Customers are turning to project44 for help overcoming real-time incidents and maximizing return on investment in their supply chains. Companies need insight from the source to the customer's doorstep. Siddiqi has built his career fostering the voice of the customer and his expertise will ensure the project44 team continues to scale appropriately to put customers at the heart of its operations.

Prior to joining project44, Siddiqi worked as the Chief Customer Officer at CentralSquare Technologies, where he led a team of over 1,300 and was responsible for not only transforming the culture, but also ensuring customer satisfaction across over 35 product sets and teams, all while driving top line revenue and integrating a customer-centric approach across all touchpoints.

He has also held SVP roles at technology leaders like Alteryx, Docker, Cloudera, and VMware.
