Enterprise SaaS Leader Tim Daniels Joins Optro as CFO

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — September 14, 2026 — Optro (formerly AuditBoard), the leading AI-powered GRC Intelligence Platform, today announced the appointment of Tim Daniels as Chief Financial Officer. Daniels joins Optro from Quickbase, where he served as CFO, and brings two decades of experience scaling high-growth enterprise software companies.

Daniels arrives as Optro extends its category leadership in agentic GRC and business momentum continues to build. Over the last twelve months, the company continued its international expansion with a new hub in Singapore, recent acquisitions of AI-native SOX automation solution Midship and AI governance solution FairNow, and the launch of Optro Partner Connect to scale its global ecosystem. Optro was also recognized for its innovative AI-powered products, being named a Leader in both the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for GRC Tools and the 2026 Forrester Wave™ for GRC Platforms, and as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies.

As CFO, Daniels will lead Optro's global finance organization, overseeing finance, accounting, and strategic financial planning as the company scales.

Daniels has spent his career on the operating side of high-growth software. Prior to Quickbase, he was CFO of Momentus Technologies, a Principal at private equity firm Cove Hill Partners, and CFO of OpsGenie through its acquisition by Atlassian. Across those roles he has repeatedly guided companies through triple-digit growth by anchoring on the fundamentals that predict durable value: customer satisfaction and retention.

"We place our customers at the center of every investment decision we make," said Raul Villar Jr., CEO of Optro. "Tim has spent his career measuring financial success by how effectively a company delivers value to its customers. His disciplined, customer-centric approach to growth makes him the ideal fit for Optro."

"Very few SaaS platforms are achieving this kind of global momentum right now, and Optro stands out from the crowd,” said Tim Daniels, CFO of Optro. “The product quality, customer loyalty, and market vision here are unmatched. I’m excited to lead our global finance team and ensure our growth directly translates into even stronger outcomes for our customers."
