Key additions to leadership drive innovation and growth for change order communication software startup

On the heels of a recent $5.3 million Series A funding round, Extracker, the construction industry’s only change order communication platform, announces five strategic hires across senior leadership. Joining the rapidly growing software company are the chief financial officer; VPs of product, marketing and sales; and the director of engineering.

“Over the past three years, we’ve strategically invested in a product the construction industry would love and provided great support during the sales and post sales process,” said Cameron Page, CEO at Extracker. “With our new funding, we are adding leadership expertise and tripling down on our vision.”

Extracker is headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, and most early employees reside in the region. However, the company is embracing a distributed work model and recently added team members from Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Texas and Southern California.
