Software testing services provider Exactpro has appointed Sona Oganesyan as CEO of AI Testing, the firm’s new subsidiary based in Yerevan, Armenia.
Exactpro provides functional testing services to exchanges, clearing houses, trade repositories, central banks and more, across trading, clearing and settlement platformas, market data and surveillance systems, and post-trade infrastructures.
In her new role, Oganesyan will lead the development of a new software testing delivery centre, with aims to further diversify Exactpro’s business across multiple geographies and regions.
Oganesyan has been at Exactpro for more than a decade, where she has gained experience in functional testing. Her knowledge of the local market will be valuable as Exactpro looks to attract new technical talent and strengthen the company’s software testing capabilities across Europe and wider Western Asia.
Commenting on Exactpro’s new operations in Armenia, CEO and co-founder Iosif Itkin explains: “We are building on the success of our expansion to Georgia which started in 2018; our Tbilisi office currently employs almost 300 specialists, which makes it our largest delivery location.
“We see West Asia as a region with a significant growth potential due to the available talent pool and steady growth of the ICT sector and the relevant infrastructure for both local and international IT firms. We are delighted to be opening a new service delivery centre in Yerevan, which will be led by Sona, allowing clients to benefit from her unique skill set.”
Oganesyan adds: “I look forward to leading Exactpro’s expansion into Armenia and the Western Asian region, tapping into its leading IT expertise. The past decade spent working with Exactpro has enabled me to work on a diverse range of projects, helping to build my expertise in the financial technology domain. I look forward to sharing my experience by working with local and international experts, helping to drive resiliency of the global financial services industry through system testing.”
