Jonathan Sisler, who had a longstanding tenure with the digital brokerage firm Coyote Logistics, dating back to 2008 and had been serving as CEO since July 2018, is stepping down from his role. His successor is Sandeep Pisipati, the current Chief Financial Officer of Coyote.

In the official news release issued by Coyote, it was stated that Sisler had chosen to explore new opportunities outside the company. The release emphasized Pisipati’s promotion to the role of CEO, a development that took center stage in the announcement.
