Dougherty joined Curbit in April 2023, and officially took over the responsibilities of CEO in September, bringing an extensive background in high-tech and executive management.
Dougherty’s unmatched expertise is rooted in his more than 20-year career at Microsoft, where he held a variety of executive leadership roles. Dougherty was the driving force behind the incubation and scaling of Microsoft Azure into a multi-billion-dollar business, enabling organizations’ digital transformation of global enterprise and application migration at scale, with early adopters such as Walmart, Chevon, Equinor, UBS, Toyota and more.
“Restaurant/hospitality is primed for a similar digital transformation, because the exponential growth in off-premise ordering has created a unique challenge for restaurateurs: ensuring guests pickup food on time and that food production is prioritized based on guest proximity,” said Dougherty. “Curbit is uniquely positioned to address the symptoms of this industry-wide pain point. I’m thrilled to be teaming up with Curbit’s visionary founders Scott Siegel and Kevin Pidduck and our ecosystem of restaurant and technology partners.”
