Kirk Wessman

Customer-facing technical leader with 15+ years designing, prototyping, and deploying complex systems at the intersection of business and technology.

I specialize in translating ambiguous requirements into production-grade solutions through close collaboration with product, engineering, and executive stakeholders. My background spans solution architecture, product management, and enterprise technical engagements — with a focus on building systems that work in the real world, not just on paper.

At Conga, I've been consistently among the top-performing Solutions Engineers across an 80-person global organization, managing relationships with Fortune 500 pharmaceutical and biomedical companies. At S&P Global, I managed API products with eight-figure recurring revenue and a portfolio serving the world's largest investment banks and private equity firms.

I hold a B.S. Cum Laude in Business Administration from the University of Southern California — Marshall School of Business, where I was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa and named a Presidential Scholar.
