Bryan Murphy is CEO of Smartling, the leading AI translation platform with $223M in funding. Global brands like British Airways, DoorDash, Verizon, and Mastercard use Smartling’s AI to scale content across languages, delivering human-quality translations 10X faster at half the cost. With a proven track record of scaling technology companies, Bryan brings over two decades of executive leadership experience in automotive, SaaS, e-commerce, and retail. His strategic vision and customer-centric approach have helped drive Smartling’s global expansion and product excellence.
Before joining Smartling, Bryan built a $2.5B online auto parts business (after Autozone’s executive team laughed him out of a meeting for such an idea). It was acquired by eBay where Bryan served as a VP, turning online car sales into a $4B business when others questioned, “who would buy a car online?” Serta then brought him in to launch their DTC mattress line in response to Casper’s rise. Now, at Smartling, Bryan has shifted the company’s focus from a services model to an AI-first platform, driving a 64% increase in growth since joining in 2022. He can share lessons on driving growth and navigating change, even when others question the approach. Bryan holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business from Miami University.
