SOFTSWISS names Denis Romanovskiy as its first Chief AI Officer

SOFTSWISS has appointed Denis Romanovskiy as its first Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer (CAIO), making artificial intelligence a formal part of the company’s long-term technology strategy.

The new C-suite role reflects SOFTSWISS’ focus on using AI to improve productivity, strengthen its technology infrastructure, and maintain a competitive edge in the iGaming industry.

Romanovskiy joins the role after more than five years as Deputy Chief Technology Officer at SOFTSWISS, where he helped scale core platforms and grow the company’s engineering capabilities. He previously held senior roles at EPAM Systems and Wargaming.net.

As CAIO, Romanovskiy will be responsible for defining and executing the company’s AI strategy and overseeing the rollout of SOFTSWISS’ enterprise AI platform.

The centralised platform is designed to securely scale AI automation across the organisation by integrating AI capabilities with corporate tools, systems, and data. It enables teams to automate workflows, analyse large data sets, and accelerate decision-making, while maintaining strict access controls, full auditability, and transparent cost management.

Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, said the appointment underlines the importance of AI to the company’s future. “AI is transforming how we build products, how businesses operate and how value is created,” he said. “By investing early in a unified AI platform and dedicated leadership, SOFTSWISS is positioning itself at the forefront of this shift.”

Romanovskiy said his priority is to move AI from experimentation to practical business use. “Our focus now is on making AI a trusted, governed and economically efficient capability that delivers measurable productivity gains across every part of the business.”

The AI platform will give management full visibility into AI usage across SOFTSWISS’ global workforce of more than 2,000 employees and reduce the risks of fragmented or uncontrolled AI tools. It will also allow teams outside engineering, including HR, Sales, and Customer Support, to build and deploy AI-driven workflows independently.

Romanovskiy will continue to develop the AI platform and expand AI use across all business functions as SOFTSWISS pushes forward with enterprise-scale, responsible AI adoption.
