SKILLS
ABOUT DAN MONTOYA
I’m a technology executive who builds enterprise IT organizations that scale fast, stay secure, and accelerate the business instead of slowing it down.Over the last 20+ years — and most recently leading Corporate Technology at a high-growth SaaS company — I’ve focused on transforming IT from a reactive service function into a strategic operating platform. My work sits at the intersection of infrastructure, identity, security, automation, and governance, with one goal: enable teams to move faster with confidence.At scale, IT success isn’t about tools — it’s about intentional architecture and operating models. I’ve led initiatives that- Architect secure, global workplace and identity platforms- Embed compliance and risk management directly into day-to-day operations- Drive automation-first service delivery and internal platforms- Deliver meaningful SaaS and vendor cost optimization through governance and strategy- Partner closely with executive leadership to align technology investments with business outcomesI’m especially passionate about environments where- IT is treated as a strategic partner, not a cost center - Security and compliance are designed as business enablers - Scale, speed, and trust must coexistKnown for building high-performing teams, modernizing legacy operating models, and bringing clarity to complex environments. I thrive in SaaS and enterprise organizations navigating rapid growth, global scale, and increasing regulatory and security demands.
