Gordon Wintrob is a seasoned technology entrepreneur and engineering leader with 13 years of experience building data-driven platforms and developer teams from startup to scale. As Co-founder and CTO of Newfront in San Francisco, he’s applying software to modernize the $900B insurance brokerage industry and embed product-led workflows into traditional risk markets.
