Verifast Promotes Two Executives as Verification Innovator Continues Rapid Scaling

Jessica Tierney named Chief Integration Officer and Becca Stafford named Chief Operating Officer

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Verifast, the AI-powered Verification-as-a-Service platform that automates financial analysis and decision-making for resident screening, mortgage underwriting, and other verticals, today announces the promotions of Becca Stafford to Chief Operating Officer and Jessica Tierney to Chief Integration Officer. These executives bring deep expertise, and innovation to the Verifast C-suite as the company scales to meet growing demand and momentum.

Stafford and Tierney have deep roots in multifamily and are central to Verifast’s product and customer success design. Their operational knowledge and customer-first approach reflect Verifast’s mission of humanized verification and trust through transparency, ensuring technology serves people, not replaces them.

Becca Stafford, will assume the role of Chief Operating Officer after serving as VP of Operations and Director of Customer Success. Her promotion recognizes a creative drive, a customer-first perspective, and an ability to turn frontline insight into scalable solutions. In just over two years, Stafford has redesigned operational workflows, prototyped product features informed directly by customer feedback, and led initiatives that improved verification outcomes and enhanced user experience. Known for a hands-on maverick style, Stafford combines empathy with practical execution and brings a pragmatic vision for Verifast’s next phase of growth.

Jessica Tierney has advanced at the pace of Verifast’s growth—joining just 14 months ago as Director of Integrations, rising to VP of Product, and now serving as CIO. With more than 18 years in multifamily spanning conventional, refinance, lease-up, and renovation portfolios, she brings an operator’s lens to how decisions across the asset lifecycle impact NOI and elevate the resident experience. After launching into proptech with Chadwell Supply, Tierney has helped operators identify tech that fills capability gaps, simplifies workflows, and delivers measurable outcomes. Her promotion recognizes a rare ability to design solutions that fit the day-to-day realities of property teams while scaling across entire organizations.

“Jess and Becca have been critical in building Verifast,” said Verifast CEO Tim Ray. “Promoting from within is a key part of our culture, and their elevation comes at an exciting moment as we deploy significant platform updates and scale to meet the growth they helped create.”
