Alkami Technology Welcomes New CFO Cassandra Hudson

Alkami Technology, Inc., a provider of digital sales and service platforms for financial institutions in the U.S., has announced the appointment of Cassandra Hudson as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) effective November 1, 2025. This change comes in light of the retirement of the former CFO, Bryan Hill.

Cassandra Hudson enters Alkami at a pivotal moment for the company, which is experiencing significant growth and expanding its market footprint. Hudson brings over two decades of extensive experience in guiding and advising companies through periods of rapid development, capital market ventures, international expansions, and M&A activities. Her most recent role was the CFO of StackAdapt, a prominent company in the advertising and marketing technology sector.

Before her tenure at StackAdapt, Hudson served as CFO at EngageSmart, where she successfully navigated the company through its IPO in 2021, achieving remarkable growth in both revenue and profitability. In addition, Hudson spent 12 years at Carbonite, holding various financial leadership roles, ultimately reaching the position of Chief Accounting Officer and Vice President of Finance.

She holds both a Bachelor of Science in Corporate Finance and Accounting and a Master of Business Administration from Bentley University. Hudson is also a Certified Public Accountant in Massachusetts.

Alex Shootman, CEO of Alkami, expressed his enthusiasm about Hudson’s appointment, stating, "I am very excited to welcome Cassandra Hudson to Alkami as our new CFO. Cassandra has a proven history of driving high-growth companies toward profitable scaling, complemented by her financial acumen in fundraising and M&A transactions." Shootman further acknowledged the valuable contributions of Bryan Hill, highlighting Hill's role in taking the company public, increasing annual recurring revenue (ARR) from under $100 million in 2019 to over $445 million, and leading several strategic acquisitions that bolstered Alkami's profitability.

In her own words, Hudson expressed her eagerness to join the Alkami team and to contribute to the company's commitment to delivering profitable growth. She stated, "Alkami not only leads in onboarding, account opening, and digital banking, but it is also on a mission to modernize and enhance the competitiveness of regional and community financial institutions, ultimately benefiting communities nationwide. I look forward to participating in this mission and adding value for Alkami's shareholders."
