mPhase Technologies, Inc. announced the addition of operations expert Ben Matheny as Chief Service and Mobilization Officer (CSMO). This fills an essential technology role at a time when Pebble is launching an industry-first platform to reward and encourage consumer behavior that promotes sustainability. A Silicon Valley native with deep ties in the U.S. technology community, Ben transformed his early interest in entrepreneurship into two-decades of specialization in unicorn-destined startups.
Most notably, he was one of the first employees at $17 billion software giant Palantir Technologies, where he served as Operations Manager for eight years during the company's early growth phase. His experience with helping to scale other unicorn technology companies includes seven years as Senior Director of Operations at Addepar (private), a provider of technology for the wealth management industry; and most recently, as Head of Workplace at Aurora Innovation, Inc., a leader in self-driving technology that went public in 2021 with a market cap of $13 billion. His start-up experience has given him broad expertise across the G&A category, with success in managing the scalability demands of fast-growing businesses.
