Rackspace Technology names Paul Soligon and Marco Tesini to senior roles

Rackspace Technology (NASDAQ: RXT) appointed Paul Soligon as Senior Vice President of Operations and Marco Tesini as Senior Vice President of International for its Private Cloud business unit, the company announced.

Soligon will oversee Business and Sales Operations and Customer Success functions, focusing on analytics, insights and customer experience improvement. He brings over 25 years of technology leadership experience, most recently serving as Senior Vice President at USAN. Previously, he spent nearly a decade at Amazon Web Services as Vice President and General Manager of Sales, leading a 700-person organization responsible for more than $2.2 billion in revenue.

Tesini will lead markets outside the United States with responsibility for expanding global presence and customer relationships. He has more than 25 years of experience in business transformation at technology companies including Unisys and Hitachi Vantara. At Hitachi Vantara, he held senior leadership roles where he led regional turnarounds and delivered double-digit growth.

"Paul and Marco join Rackspace at a moment when demand for a governed, enterprise AI backbone is accelerating faster than most organizations can deliver against it," said Gajen Kandiah, CEO of Rackspace Technology. "Paul's experience scaling a multi-billion-dollar business at AWS gives us the operational rigor to match that demand. Marco is a proven growth and turnaround leader who has built and rebuilt international businesses at scale."

The appointments come as the San Antonio-based company positions itself in the hybrid cloud and artificial intelligence solutions market. The information is based on a company press release.
