ServiceTitan, a leading cloud-based software platform built to power the trades, today unveiled a new suite of powerful capabilities purpose-built for trades businesses who work in the construction market. With these new services, trades-focused subcontractors can manage their full lifecycle and seamlessly integrate construction projects, empowering them to increase revenue, streamline operations, and ultimately provide an elevated level of service for their construction customers. This launch follows significant investments the company has recently made in the landscaping and pest control industries, ultimately empowering more tradespeople in both residential and commercial sectors to address a broader customer base and grow their businesses.

ServiceTitan’s expansion into construction-focused capabilities will be led by Sendur Sellakumar, who joins ServiceTitan as the company’s first-ever SVP of Commercial and Construction. He brings nearly 25 years of experience in technology and investment banking, most recently serving as Splunk’s Chief Cloud Officer. During his tenure at Splunk, Sellakumar ran the company’s cloud business and grew it to over $1 billion in ARR with thousands of enterprise customers. Prior to Splunk, Sellakumar was an investment banker with Morgan Stanley covering the software sector, and has led engineering efforts at several enterprise technology companies.
“Tradespeople work tirelessly to deliver essential services, yet they are still feeling the burden of having to manage a mishmash of point tools at the expense of their business. They could benefit significantly from the digital transformation ServiceTitan has enabled for thousands of businesses,” said Sellakumar. “With the launch of these new capabilities for construction-focused tradespeople, we aim to deliver a superior subcontractor experience that enables our customers to capture additional revenue streams and address additional segments of the trades market. I’m excited to leverage my deep expertise in building and scaling technology platforms to help expand ServiceTitan to new markets and ultimately, empower the entire skilled trades ecosystem.”
