Triumph, a member of the Triumph Financial portfolio of brands, appointed Jason Heilig to the position of chief technology officer of its factoring division. He will continue to report to Tim Valdez, president of the company’s factoring division.
“We’re excited to welcome Jason into his new position,” Valdez said. “Throughout his three-plus years at Triumph, he has helped grow the factoring IT department while providing industry-leading technology to help better serve our clients and our team members. This is another great step forward in growing Triumph into a leading and thriving financial partner for the transportation industry.”
Heilig officially joined Triumph in March of 2020; however, he has been an integral part of Triumph’s development and IT teams since 2016 when he began working as a contractor. In early 2022, he stepped into a senior leadership position and built a team of more than 30 people, including engineers, quality assurance professionals and data analysts. Prior to joining Triumph, Heilig served as director of technology and project lead at Projekt202, leading sales efforts for multi-million-dollar projects for Fortune 500 companies.
“I am honored to accept this new role within Triumph and to help lead a talented and experienced team dedicated to building technology solutions that push Triumph forward while setting the standard for what’s expected from a transportation finance partner,” Heilig said. “The excitement and anticipation for what we are building here are at an all-time high, and we are committed to delivering collaborative, value-driven tech that has broad impact that can be appreciated across the team and industry as a whole.”
