Five9, Inc. (FIVN), a leading Intelligent CX Platform provider, announced on Wednesday that Amit Mathradas has been appointed Chief Executive Officer effective February 2, 2026. The appointment comes as current Board Chairman Mike Burkland transitions out of the executive role following his July retirement announcement.

Mathradas brings extensive leadership experience to the position, having previously served as Chief Executive Officer of Nintex, where he demonstrated strong operational and strategic execution. His track record positions him to drive Five9’s next phase of growth and innovation in the customer experience technology space.

The Board’s decision followed a comprehensive executive search process orchestrated by a dedicated committee of independent directors, supported by a nationally recognized search firm. This rigorous recruitment effort underscores the company’s commitment to securing top-tier leadership talent for the role.

Burkland, who led the company as CEO, will maintain his Board membership and support the leadership transition to ensure continuity. This structured handover approach reflects best practices in corporate succession planning.

The market responded positively to the announcement, with Five9 stock trading 1.07% higher at $21.74 on the Nasdaq in pre-market activity, signaling investor confidence in the leadership transition and the company’s strategic direction moving forward.
