Strengthening our leadership bench
As Ramp continues its rapid growth, our foundational mission remains unchanged: helping companies achieve more by spending less. With our ambitious roadmap for 2025, we're strengthening our leadership team to deliver even greater value to our customers. Today, we’re pleased to announce key promotions that will help drive our next phase of growth.
We are promoting Will Petrie to Chief Financial Officer, Geoff Charles to Chief Product Officer, and Nik Koblov to EVP of Engineering.
These leaders have been instrumental in shaping Ramp’s success — from scaling our platform to building a team focused on driving customer impact. Their promotions are a testament to the extraordinary impact they’ve made as we build a smarter, faster, and increasingly customer-centric company.
- Will, who pairs analytical depth with precise execution, has helped the company grow its contribution profit by an order of magnitude and secured nearly $1B in new financings over the past two years. His ability to distill our business into its core drivers and communicate them simply has sharpened our focus on what matters most: delivering maximum value to our customers.
- Geoff, our first product hire (and among our first 15 team members), has led our evolution from pre-launch to product-market fit to five distinct, industry-leading product lines. His customer obsession and his commitment to velocity — and to continuously refining product quality — have created a machine that ships over 150 new products per year that make it easier for customers to seamlessly manage their finances.
- Nik, who embodies engineering excellence, has scaled Ramp’s engineering team from a handful of people to hundreds of the most talented engineers in tech. By emphasizing talent density, active mentorship, modern systems, and lightning-fast release cycles, he has laid a robust foundation for our next wave of customer-focused features and infrastructure improvements.
As co-founders, we've always believed that building a world-class company requires nurturing and elevating exceptional talent from within. These promotions reflect our commitment to this principle and our confidence in the strong leadership bench we've developed at Ramp.
Looking ahead, we’ve set significant goals — including expanding our product suite, exploring new markets, and doubling down on the innovations that have made Ramp the go-to partner for any business seeking to operate at higher levels of financial efficiency. With Will, Geoff, and Nik in these expanded roles, and the hard work of the entire company, we're better positioned than ever to make a positive impact on the businesses we serve.
Whether you’re a longtime customer, a brand-new partner, or simply following along, we’re incredibly excited about what lies ahead and couldn't be more confident in this team to help take us there.
Please join us in congratulating Will, Geoff, and Nik!

P.S. If you’d like to help shape the future of finance with us, we’re hiring across nearly every function: ramp.com/careers. We’d love to hear from you.
“I assumed I would have to choose between speed and control. What I found is that you can have both. A well-designed system takes friction out, for the finance function and for everyone else.”
Justin Webster
CFO, Denver Broncos
“A well-run district should not have to choose between getting work done at the school site and keeping control of the dollars behind it. We're not hiring more people to do more jobs, so we have to be smarter about the process. With Ramp, the purchase, the receipt, and the record stay together from the start. ”
Nick Brizeno
Director of Purchasing, San Marcos Unified School District
“AI is moving faster than the finance context around it. Prices change, models change, and the value is not always obvious from an invoice. We needed enough detail to know which bets deserved more investment — and which ones did not.”
Greg Cooley
Controller, AngelList
“Invoices, cards, tokens. The categories change but the principle doesn't: know where the money is going, remove the work around it, and make sure the spend is worth it.”
Maciej Mylik. Finance
ElevenLabs
“We weren’t trying to retrofit an old finance system. We had a blank canvas, and Ramp gave us the foundation to build a global finance function of the future.”
Justin Dourado
Director of Finance, Othership
“There's just no surprises anymore. No more waiting two months to find out how a job did. We know how it's doing as it's happening.”
Erich Kuss
Financial Systems Manager, Infinity Home Services
“More token spend isn’t proof that AI is working. Less isn’t proof that it isn’t. What matters is whether we’re buying the right level of intelligence for the work. Ramp lets us make that judgment in the same place we manage every other type of spend.”
Cody Nutt
Senior Director of Business Systems, Daxko
“Most banks treat the back office as a cost to keep down. We treat ours as a return to compound, which is why we run it on Ramp. Now we put our clients on Ramp, too.”
Patrick Gaughen
President & COO, Hingham Institution for Savings
