Digital Asset Appoints Odette Rodrigues as CFO, Advancing Leadership Team for Next Phase of Growth
Digital Asset today announced the appointment of Odette Rodrigues as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), succeeding Emnet Rios, who has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer (COO). The transition marks an important inflection point for Digital Asset as it continues to scale globally and strengthen its financial and operational foundations.
Rodrigues joins Digital Asset from Uber, where she served as Treasurer, overseeing global capital markets, liquidity management, and corporate financial strategy. With a proven track record of scaling high-performing teams, she will be responsible for Digital Asset’s global finance function, including accounting, tax, financial planning, and investor relations.
“Odette’s experience navigating dynamic, high-growth environments and executing sophisticated capital strategies makes her an outstanding addition to our leadership team,” said Yuval Rooz, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Asset. “This transition comes at a pivotal moment as we enter our next phase of expansion and operational excellence.”
In her eight years serving as CFO, Emnet Rios has been instrumental in driving Digital Asset’s financial strategy, including playing a major role in the Company’s successful Series E capital raise this past summer. As COO, she will now focus on optimizing internal operations globally, strengthening execution, and driving efficiency across the organization.
“Emnet has been fundamental to our success and a key member of my executive team,” added Yuval Rooz. “In her new role, she will be responsible for ensuring that our operational scale matches our strategic ambitions.”
