BELLEVUE, Wash. -- Sept. 10, 2018 -- Auth0, a global leader in Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS), today announced that Ghazi Masood has joined the company as its new Vice President of Sales, Americas. With more than two decades of experience in enterprise sales management and business leadership, Masood is responsible for growth within the U.S., Canada, and South America, and will drive continuing market expansion for the company’s Universal Identity Platform.

Before joining Auth0, Masood was Executive Vice President of Indigo Slate, a digital marketing agency, and played an integral role in the company’s expansion and successful acquisition. Previous roles include executive leadership positions at K2, Oracle, and Avaya.
