Talend appoints Eric Johnson as CIO

Cloud and big data integrator Talend has appointed Eric Johnson as CIO.

He brings more than two decades of global information technology leadership experience, with expertise in scaling IT infrastructures, leading digital transformations and supporting strategic sales.

Johnson will be responsible for setting the strategic vision and growth of Talend's global IT organisation, including the use of all systems and platforms as it increases its emphasis on the cloud.

Mike Tuchen, CEO of Talend, stated: "I'm confident that Eric's proven ability to lead and scale global IT organisations will be of tremendous value as Talend aims to continue its rapid growth.

"He'll also serve as valued counsel to senior IT leaders as they look to partner with Talend and stay ahead in this rapidly changing, data-driven and multi-cloud environment."

Johnson is the former CIO of DocuSign, where he built the company's IT vision, infrastructure design, and led its global organisation.

Prior to DocuSign, he spent more than a decade at Informatica in increasingly senior IT roles, most recently as senior vice president and CIO.

Johnson also developed the IT strategy and architecture that supported Informatica's early migration to becoming a Software-as-a-Service provider.

Johnson said: "I look forward to helping internal teams and our customers navigate the challenges - technical and otherwise - of becoming more data-driven."

Johnson began his career with Deloitte Consulting where he led teams in both San Francisco and Sydney, Australia, specialising in delivering supply chain solutions across high tech, consumer, oil and gas, and other industries.
