Sembi, a SaaS portfolio specialising in software testing and security solutions, has appointed Mark Haney as its new Chief Technology Officer (CTO), the company confirmed.
The announcement comes as Sembi seeks to unify eight leading software brands under a single platform, aiming to streamline quality management and bolster security for enterprise users.
Haney brings over 25 years of experience in B2B technology leadership roles, including a decade as a CTO in sectors ranging from healthcare to financial services.
Prior to joining Sembi, he held senior positions at Intelerad Medical Systems, Alkami Technology, and ExamSoft, where he led product innovation and operational scaling efforts across diverse software portfolios.
Sembi, launched in January by Idera, consolidates six software testing brands, namely TestRail, Xray, Testmo, Ranorex, Xporter, as well as DesignWise, alongside two security-focused products, Kiuwan and PreEmptive.
Strategy
The unified platform is designed to align strategic goals, streamline testing processes, and enhance security monitoring across enterprise applications.
“Unifying eight active brands under one portfolio is an ambitious project for any organisation, especially when each represents a respected name in the software quality and security industries,” stressed Haney.
“I’m deeply committed to meeting this challenge head-on and providing our customers with high-quality, highly scalable solutions to support their long-term success.”
Randy Jacops, president of Sembi and CEO of Idera, emphasised Haney’s track record in scaling technology operations.
“Executing on our vision not only requires world-class quality and security solutions but exceptional talent, visionaries, and leaders,” said Jacops. “With Mark, we know we have someone with all three qualities overseeing our technology operations and innovation efforts.”
Sembi’s focus on agile methodologies and cloud-first strategies is expected to accelerate product development across its testing and security brands.
The move underscores Sembi’s bold ambition to provide testing solutions to more than 20,000 customers around the world in the years to come.
