About Dave Casion

Dave Casion is Chief Technology Officer at BitSight. Location: Greater Boston, United States.

In boring speak, Cash ( Dave's widely-used nickname ) is an experience executive, his career has centered around building businesses, demonstrating culture-first leadership and building high-performing teams to drive business outcomes. In less boring speak, Cash has been described as a “strong leader, true strategic thinker, reasonable manager, helpful adviser and outstandingly knowledgeable and diligent colleague”, “Cash is the greatest mentor I [have] had the pleasure of working with”, is a …”a great listener. But he takes listening further, by digesting and following up with concrete actions.” and is often described as having a #GSD personality. During his career Cash has held operational roles of software engineer, research engineer, director of R&D, CTO, President, CEO and coFounder at organizational stages ranging from pre-revenue to 9 figure annual revenues and is a graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology (Computer Science). Cash is a mildly depressed optimist with laser focus on team goals. Complete with vim AND a sense of humor, this leader fears ice-breakers but loves to debate ice-breaker questions. He is part philosopher, part warrior and all-in whatever it takes to make teams and those around him successful. His spirit animal is a honey badger, favorite color is blue, is a big fan of personal user guides, currently operating on a respectable work out streak and 26+ book-per-year regiment so do not hesitate to ask him what he has been reading lately! Cash is bit of a futurist, likes thought experiments and loves hard problems. Possibly most important, Cash enjoys solving business problems with a combination of high performing teams and technology.
