SOFTSWISS appoints first Chief AI Officer to advance enterprise AI strategy
SOFTSWISS has strengthened its long-term technology strategy by appointing Denis Romanovskiy as its first Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer (CAIO). The newly created executive role formalises artificial intelligence as a core component of the company’s enterprise infrastructure and reflects the growing importance of AI in large-scale technology organisations.
Romanovskiy steps into the CAIO role after more than five years as Deputy Chief Technology Officer at SOFTSWISS, where he played a key role in scaling the company’s technology platforms and engineering capabilities. Prior to joining SOFTSWISS, he held senior development and leadership roles at EPAM Systems and Wargaming.net, gaining extensive experience in enterprise software and high-performance product environments.
As CAIO, Romanovskiy will oversee the rollout of SOFTSWISS’ AI platform, a centralised infrastructure designed to securely scale AI automation across the organisation. Acting as a foundational layer, the platform integrates AI capabilities with corporate systems and data, enabling thousands of workflows to be automated while ensuring strict access controls, auditability, and transparent cost management.
Founder of SOFTSWISS Ivan Montik said the appointment underlines the strategic role AI now plays within the organisation:
“The creation of the Chief AI Officer role is a reflection of how critical artificial intelligence has become to the future of technology. AI is transforming how we build products, how businesses operate and how value is created. By investing early in a unified AI platform and dedicated leadership, SOFTSWISS is positioning itself at the forefront of this shift.”
The creation of the CAIO role allows SOFTSWISS to establish consistent standards and accountability for AI usage across its global workforce. By replacing fragmented AI tools with a unified platform, the company aims to reduce operational risk, prevent uncontrolled “shadow AI,” and give leadership clear visibility into how AI is applied across business units.
The platform also supports decentralised innovation, allowing teams in areas such as HR, Sales, and Customer Support to design and deploy AI-powered workflows independently using shared components and integrations. This “build once, use everywhere” approach is intended to accelerate adoption while maintaining governance.
Through this appointment, SOFTSWISS signals its ambition to lead in responsible, enterprise-scale AI adoption within the gaming technology sector.
