About Youssef Ikram

I spent +23 years in software development and operations. At Cimpl, an enterprise SaaS company that managed billions of dollars of technology spending on behalf of large companies, I had the opportunity to be part of the executive team that made Cimpl went from a technology start-up to one of North America's leading SaaS providers of enterprise asset and expense management. Cimpl was acquired by Upland Software (NASDAQ: UPLD) in 2019. I oversaw multiple product and operational teams responsible for product development, quality assurance, project management, managed and professional services. Prior to Cimpl/Upland, I spent +6 years implementing a variety of transactional solutions for many major banks, credit unions, and e-commerce sites. In my spare time, I combine my passion for programming with my genuinely altruistic spirit by designing, creating, and donating professional-calibre, money-earning applications to various community and non-profit organizations. I hold both a Certificate in Enterprise Management from Specialized Institute of Applied Management Technology and a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from the Moroccan School for Engineering Sciences.
