An accomplished government and technology leader with decades of experience working for cities and states, Rob will start his new role with the City on June 24.
“Seattle is a world-leading technology hub, and I am excited for Rob to join the team and support our One Seattle vision to be a world-leading government in the use of technology to better serve our communities,” said Mayor Harrell. “Rob is a well-known and well-respected leader in his field, and I believe his knowledge, experience, and commitment to public service will help him succeed in a role that is connected to everything we do as a city.
