SAN FRANCISCO, March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CaptivateIQ, the leader in sales commission software, appointed Nahi Ojeil as vice president of engineering and Naveed Makhani as vice president of product. These additions to the leadership team bolster CaptivateIQ's ability to deliver a world-class platform to automate and scale sales commissions, a process that is painfully manual today.

"Nahi's platform approach at Dropbox brings great insights into scaling and securing enterprise-grade platforms used by the world's largest companies. And, from scaling Okta during a period of rapid growth, Naveed has a wealth of experience leading a product team in high-stakes software deployments."

As vice president of engineering, Ojeil will lead the CaptivatIQ engineering team in building a unique product based on the real experiences of CaptivateIQ's customers. Ojeil joins CaptivateIQ from Commure, a developer platform for healthcare, where he served as vice president of engineering. Previously, Ojeil led a 150-member engineering team at Dropbox, focusing on machine learning, data and platforms, as well as product iteration and experimentation via platformization efforts.



"I am excited to join the team and look forward to continuing to build the CaptivateIQ platform that helps companies solve extremely complex sales commission processes through automation," said Ojeil. "Now is the time. The market is growing rapidly and we want to continue delivering a sophisticated, streamlined platform that brings a higher quality of life to dynamic teams who deal with commissions and incentive plans."

As vice president of product, Makhani will lead product management, design, and documentation teams. He will work closely with engineering and sales to continually evolve CaptivateIQ's product offerings to meet the needs of a dynamic market and customers' most essential challenges.
