About Paul Widden

Paul Widden is CTO (Swoop Platform) at Agero, Inc. Location: Walnut Creek, California, United States.

As CTO of the Swoop Platform at Agero, I have helped spearhead the digital transformation of the roadside assistance industry. I co-founded Swoop in 2015, developing an innovative dispatch management platform that quickly became a market leader. Following Swoop's acquisition by Agero, I led the integration and scaling of our technology, replacing legacy systems and enabling Agero to efficiently handle over 12 million roadside events annually across the U.S. With over two decades of experience in software engineering, machine learning and leadership roles, my expertise spans developing scalable platforms, fostering high-performing teams, and delivering exceptional product innovation. My work at Monkey Inferno, Swoop, and Agero exemplifies my dedication to driving strategic growth and leveraging technology to solve complex challenges. I hold a degree in Software Engineering from the University of Bath, UK and have a proven track record in technical leadership, strategic planning, and team building.
