Artem Fishman

Dow Jones & Co. CEO Almar Latour sent out the following on Monday:

Colleagues,

I’m delighted to announce that Artem Fishman will become chief technology officer for Dow Jones.

Artem joins us from LinkedIn, where he oversaw the company’s homepage and content experiences – core products that include LinkedIn’s feed, media experiences and tools for content creators.

As CTO, Artem will oversee the global team of engineers for Dow Jones responsible for the technology and product rollouts for all our brands, including The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s and our business intelligence products and services.

Artem takes on this pivotal role at an important time for Dow Jones, as we navigate the rollout of new technologies such as generative AI and augment the role of technology in our products and services.

Artem is a veteran technology executive with a long track record of spearheading premier consumer products in the news, media and financial services industries. At LinkedIn, he oversaw the Content Experience organization, which is responsible for the entire home surface and all content types within it including posts, videos, images, articles, newsletters, polls and more. He also served as the Research & Development lead at LinkedIn in New York.

Previously Artem was Chief Technology Officer at SoundCloud in Berlin, where he was responsible for product monetization strategies and scaling the company into a robust two-sided marketplace.

Artem has also held senior leadership roles at Yahoo, Thomson Reuters and The New York Times. He holds a bachelor’s degree in computer science from New York University. Artem is co-chair of the New York CTO Club, an independent, not-for-profit, group of senior technologists.

Artem will join our executive leadership team and will report to me. Daniel Bernard will continue to report to me in his role as chief experience officer, focusing on product development and customer experience. Artem’s first day will be Dec. 4.

Please join me in welcoming Artem to Dow Jones.
