In New York, ad tech and fraud prevention platform Kubient has hired Josh Weiss as Chief Financial Officer.

Kubient has created a single, integrated platform for advertisers and publishers to optimize and connect their audiences, offering proprietary AI-powered technology that stops ad fraud pre-bid, as opposed to measuring a portion of traffic for fraud or measuring fraud after the fact. It also performs anonymous matching of the 'digital DNA' of audiences to connect them with relevant campaigns.

Weiss (pictured) previously served as VP Finance for a privately-held global investment firm focusing on information services, education and technology. In that role, he was responsible for financial management of both the parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and he managed a ten-person global finance team. Previously, he was Senior Audit Manager - SEC & Transaction Services Practice Group, Assurance Services at Marcum, an independent public accounting and advisory services firm.

In his new role, Weiss will provide leadership, direction and management of the finance and accounting teams, while managing budgeting, forecasts, capital, and reporting. CEO Peter Bordes comments: 'I am thrilled to welcome a CFO of this caliber to the Kubient team, and the timing is absolutely perfect. After a banner year of partnerships, product launches, and acquisitions, 2020 is shaping up to be Kubient's most critical year yet, and we couldn't ask for a more qualified and talented executive to lead the team on the financial and operations front'.
