About Derek Otto

Enterprise IT leader with experience owning and transforming mission‑critical platforms across supply chain, enterprise applications, and automation. I focus on stabilizing complex environments during disruption, delivering large transformation programs, and modernizing legacy technology while keeping the business running.In recent roles, I’ve led technology for transportation, warehousing, and customer order management platforms, partnering closely with business leaders to improve service health, strengthen integrations, and deliver measurable outcomes. I operate effectively in hybrid delivery models—leading internal teams while leveraging managed services partners, vendors, and system integrators to scale delivery and support.I’m most energized by work at the intersection of operations and technology: improving reliability, reducing risk and technical debt, and turning platforms and data into trusted capabilities that enable better decisions and execution.
