Kilopass Appoints Industry Veteran Dana Reyes Vice President of Finance To Scale Business Expansion

“I am excited to work with Dana again,” said Charlie Cheng, President & CEO at Kilopass. “She has extensive experience in all facets of the semiconductor business, from EDA software, semiconductor intellectual property (IP), components sold through distribution all the way to financing and accounting of a wafer fab. All this expertise will help Kilopass with its next phase of expansion.”

“I am thrilled to have Dana join our finance team and to be working with her again,” said Kilopass CFO James T. Lindstrom. “Her skills in managing the financial details of taking an IP start-up through the IPO process made a lasting impression on me. Her accumulated international business savvy and extensive background in high-tech finance at start-ups to large public companies, regulatory filings, and large value contract negotiations make her a critical addition to the company as it begins its next large scale expansion phase. I’m looking forward to her making a major contribution to Kilopass’ transformation.”

Dana Reyes has over 20 years of wide-ranging finance and accounting experience at public companies including semiconductor-based Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and EDA giant Cadence Design Systems, Inc. as well as private companies including Barracuda Networks (internet security) and Host Analytics (Software-as a-Service). Her background comprises extensive expertise in M&As, IPO and international accounting and operations as well as building infrastructure and systems implementation.

“I am delighted to once again join forces with Charlie and Jim as they begin directing Kilopass to the next stage in its evolution,” said Reyes. “The fresh infusion of capital from a major customer, a new product coming out of R&D, and an ambitious diversification plan to scale combine to provide the kind of challenge that I always seek out. This is a great opportunity and I look forward to making an impact as soon as possible.”
