Marqeta has appointed Patti Kangwankij as its new Chief Financial Officer, strengthening its leadership team as the company focuses on growth and profitability. Kangwankij will oversee all financial operations and support Marqeta’s strategy as it scales its card issuing platform. She succeeds Mike Milotich, who transitioned to the role of Chief Executive Officer in September 2025 following a previously announced leadership change. The appointment comes at a time when Marqeta is aligning its financial strategy with long-term operational and customer objectives, reflecting a continued focus on disciplined execution and sustainable performance.
Kangwankij brings more than two decades of experience across technology, financial services, and global payments. She joins Marqeta from Roofstock, where she served as CFO, and previously held senior finance and strategy roles at Stripe. Earlier, she spent nearly 15 years at JPMorgan Chase & Co. in leadership roles across investment banking, co-branded credit cards, and merchant services. Commenting on Kangwankij’s appointment, Mike Milotich, CEO of Marqeta, stated, "She brings deep payments industry expertise, and her leadership will be a critical asset as we continue to execute our strategy, scale our platform, and enable customer innovation in card issuing.” Kangwankij’s background in payments, financial strategy, and operational scale positions her to guide Marqeta’s finance organization as the company deepens customer relationships and supports embedded finance use cases.
