    Company · Leadership

    The people accountable for governed AI.

    The five people who answer for how Reign is built, run and sold.

    Leadership

    The team behind Reign.

    Paul Goldman
    Founder & Chief Executive Officer

    Paul founded iTmethods, leads it as CEO, and leads Reign: Reign Factory, Reign Gateway and Reign Ops. Two decades operating mission-critical infrastructure for regulated industries taught him the same lesson every time: trust is earned through evidence, not asserted. That conviction shapes how he builds teams, sets strategic direction, and drives the company’s growth today. Previously, he founded Arqana Technologies, which he grew to greater than $70M in revenue before its acquisition by TELUS (NYSE:TU) in 2001.

    Rob Stevens
    Chief Revenue Officer

    Rob leads revenue at iTmethods. He held senior leadership roles at AWS, including Worldwide Go-To-Market Leader and Country Manager for Partner Sales and Development, and spent 13 years at Microsoft in enterprise sales and partner leadership. He was previously Chief Revenue Officer at Carbon60, and has deep experience building enterprise sales and partner organizations across cloud, SaaS, agentic AI, and infrastructure.

    Virgil Iordan
    Vice President, Engineering

    Virgil leads engineering at iTmethods: the design, delivery, and operation of the company’s core platforms, Reign Factory, Reign Gateway and Reign Ops. He builds high-leverage engineering teams that use agentic AI to deliver fully governed production systems at scale. His focus is on creating production-grade platforms that meet the reliability, security, and auditability requirements of regulated enterprise customers.

    Phi Wan
    Field CTO

    Phi works directly with regulated enterprises to design and deploy governed AI architectures. With more than 20 years at iTmethods, he partners with customers to translate complex regulatory, security, and operational requirements into practical, production-ready solutions. His focus is helping institutions adopt AI agents and governed software delivery while maintaining control, accountability, and confidence in the outcome.

    Tarun Matharoo
    Chief Financial Officer

    Tarun builds the finance teams, processes, and systems behind enterprise value creation. A CPA and MBA, he has twice backed founder-led businesses to private-equity exits, and led three M&As and multiple debt financings for bootstrapped companies. Today he also leads AI enablement across finance, HR, legal, and capital strategy, focused on the financial strength and operational discipline regulated customers require.

    The mandate

    Two cycles are converging. Regulation moves from policy to evidence. AI moves from tools to systems. We are building the platform where governed AI runs in regulated industries.
