Sima Shahin
Regional Vice President, Federal Systems Integrators, Rancher Government Solutions
Sima Shahin is the first regional vice president of federal systems integrators at Rancher Government Solutions. In this role, she created the company’s FSI division, engaging with and securing 30 net-new partners and growing revenue in this space by 100%, which represents a significant portion of the entire RGS business.
“For Rancher, our challenge was to bring awareness to our leading-edge Kubernetes offerings for the federal marketplace and to quickly and expertly leverage our technology to advance critical missions,” Shahin said. “We addressed that challenge head on by focusing on the FSI market and today, after just 12 months, our partners include many of the industry’s largest, and all of them are leveraging Rancher technology.”
Rancher’s lightweight Kubernetes build enables agencies to perform mission-critical work. Shahin’s engagement with FSI partners means federal agencies today have enhanced edge computing capabilities and can be even more effective in advancing their missions.
Why Watch
In 2022, Shahin and her team are focused on further growing Rancher’s FSI portfolio. They’re targeting 40% growth this year and have ambitious goals beyond that.
“Sima is high-energy, dynamic, committed ⏤ all the things you’d want in a BD leader,” Rancher CEO Lynne Chamberlain said. “She’s fostered some incredible, trust-based relationships for us and has proven to be tremendously effective in her role. We are fortunate to have her.”
