Fred Luddy

Fred Luddy possessed an incredibly rigorous, deeply elite background in advanced enterprise software engineering, complex database architecture, and massive-scale corporate IT infrastructure. Operating as a fiercely capable CTO who intimately understood the massive, highly complex pain points of Fortune 500 IT departments, this intensely technical and commercial foundation provided the exact engineering mastery required to successfully pioneer the incredibly massive ServiceNow platform.

Fred Luddy is an absolutely legendary American software engineer, fiercely visionary digital architect, and the profoundly influential CEO and founding patriarch fundamentally responsible for creating the massively dominant ServiceNow cloud software empire. Operating as the incredibly successful former Chief Technology Officer of Peregrine Systems, Luddy aggressively recognized the massive, catastrophic friction involved in deploying highly rigid, incredibly expensive IT service management software.
