Optera, a Boulder-based company in the environmental, social and governance space, has recently expanded its leadership team with the addition of Megan Dunne as its vice president of finance and Derek Kuhl as its vice president of sales. Dune was previously VP of finance at Knock, and Kuhl worked in several sales and marketing leadership roles at companies like Spotify and Google.
Optera works to help corporations reduce their environmental impact by providing carbon accounting solutions, actionable insights and forecasts and tools to collaborate with their supply chain and investment partners. In 2022, the company tracked more than 225 million metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent across 84,000 locations, including $187 billion in its customers’ supply chain spend.
The company is growing in time with private sector demand for carbon accounting solutions. Optera also announced the promotion of several individuals to its senior leadership team, including Nancy Schoemann as SVP of operations, Katie Oakes as VP of marketing, Alekhya Reddy as VP product and Ilya Sukhanov as VP of engineering.
