Kobiton, the only complete mobile device lab platform in the market, announced today that tech leader, business veteran and Atlanta resident Ken Walters has joined its Board of Directors. As the inaugural member of the board, Walters will serve as a key advisor to Kobiton’s founders Vu Lam and Josh Lieberman as the mobile device management and testing platform grows.
“Ken joined us in the early days at QASymphony and proved himself to be a strong ally and trusted advisor as the company grew to become the leading provider of software testing and QA tools supporting agile development teams,” said Lam. “We are very excited to have him on the Kobiton team to help us realize the significant opportunity we see ahead of us.”
Prior to his retirement in 2010, Walters was president and COO at Infor Global Solutions, one of the largest privately held software companies in the enterprise software market. During his tenure Infor Global Solutions grew from $40 million in revenue in 2002 to $2.1 billion in 2010.
