(US and Canada) BeamUP, Ltd., the leader in enterprise data management for building systems design and operations, has hired Ran Ziv as its Chief Technology Officer. Ziv joins BeamUP from ZipRecruiter, where he served as Vice President of Engineering for 17 years.

Ziv has worked at the forefront of artificial intelligence and supported several companies through rapid growth and maturity. As CTO, he drives the technology vision behind BeamUP’s AI-powered design and management platform.

BeamUP works with Fortune 50 customers across health care, finance and technology. 

"Ran’s rich experience in scaling data-led offerings will spur our product offerings for our Fortune 50 customers as they upgrade their building management and design," says Stephane Levy, BeamUp CEO and founder. "We are thrilled to bring Ran on board as we scale our deep learning capabilities to drive cost and resource efficiencies for enterprise facilities."

Before joining Ziprecruiter, Ziv served as General Manager of Tapingo Israel and Vice President of R&D at Tapingo Global, which Grubhub acquired after raising more than $66M in venture capital. He previously served as Chief Data Architect at Sizmek, which Amazon acquired, and as R&D leader at LivePerson and iBasis.

"Enterprise real estate is ripe for disruption,” Ziv says. “Until now, facility data was held within disparate systems in a range of formats, which has led to knowledge gaps, errors and breaches. BeamUP has found a unique entry point. By digitizing facilities’ data, BeamUP develops artificial intelligence algorithms that use NLP and computer vision to automate building management and design processes. I’m excited to build the solution to this real-world problem as we help customers make their buildings safe, compliant and efficient."
