Earnin, the leader in building products for a more equitable financial system and a better life for those living paycheck to paycheck, today announced the appointment of Ofer Shaked as Chief Technology Officer. In this role, Shaked will focus on optimizing existing Earnin products and innovating advanced products in development.

With more than 20 years of leadership experience in technology, Shaked most recently held the position of vice president of engineering & data at Intuit, working on large scale data streaming and processing, and automated data quality measurement approaches. Previously, he founded marketing data and analytics company, Origami Logic, to garner insights from large and complex data for enterprise customers such as Procter & Gamble, Wells Fargo, American Express, and Visa.
