Former Box executive Ed Tang joins Lever as CFO
Prior to Lever, Ed Tang served as VP of Strategic Finance, Operations, and Business Analytics at Box. In his five years there, Tang played a critical role in preparing the company for its IPO, building a scalable financial management infrastructure, and implementing best-in-class strategic and financial planning processes. He also drove sales execution by standardizing and automating business processes at a global level.
Tang brings another nine years of experience at Salesforce, where he was involved in business and corporate development and helped build the finance, strategy, and business operations teams. Tang drove post-acquisition integration efforts for some of the most strategic investments in the company’s history.
“I am thrilled to be joining Lever,” said Tang. “The product, the vision, and the team really set Lever apart. I couldn’t be more excited at the opportunity to help this already successful startup continue to grow and reach its full potential.”
