Einride hires former Product Manager at Spotify as CPO
Anders Böös joins Einride in a phase of rapid growth. One key hire is Gabriel Lundberg, as CPO. He is a former Operating Partner at Seedplus, a Singapore based investment company, backed by Jungle Ventures, IFC of the World Bank Group, Eight Roads of Fidelity Investments, Accel India, Cisco and Ratan Tata. Simultaneously, he was a Venture Partner at Antler, a startup generator and early-stage VC, mentoring first-time entrepreneurs in the Antler program. Before joining Seedplus, Gabriel Lundberg held several senior product management roles at Spotify, including Product Manager for the Asia-Pacific region – identifying and executing regional product growth opportunities – and Product Manager for Spotify’s search engine, responsible for the full-stack search experience.
Gabriel Lundberg will head up Einride’s product development team and will be responsible for the company’s overall strategic product roadmap, its key timelines and deliverables.
“I have followed Einride’s incredible journey since the beginning. The company has already made its mark on the future of transport and I’m thrilled to join a world-class team in developing a sustainable product portfolio around an autonomous, electric transport system”, says Gabriel Lundberg.
“It’s great to have Gabriel onboard. His technology investment background and experience in complex software development and product management from one of the world’s leading tech companies will be key to accelerating the readiness of our platform – one of our key focus areas over the next year”, says Robert Falck, CEO & founder of Einride.
