Moderne, the Agent Tools company for AI-driven software engineering, today announced the appointment of Matt "Fink" Finkelstein as Chief Partnerships Officer. Finkelstein joins from GitHub, where he spent more than ten years building the partner, services, and Microsoft go-to-market programs that took the first generation of AI developer tools into the enterprise. At Moderne, he will scale the partner ecosystem that brings AI agent tools into production across enterprise software environments.

Quick Intel

  • Finkelstein spent over ten years at GitHub, rising to Vice President of Global Microsoft, Partner & Services Solution Sales.

  • Led GitHub's global services and channel partner business during launch of first generation AI developer tools.

  • Moderne built on OpenRewrite open-source project.

  • Recent launches include Prethink (structured semantic context layer) and TriGrep (high-speed code search for agents).

  • Investors include Acrew Capital, Intel Capital, True Ventures, Morgan Stanley Ventures, Amex Ventures, and TIAA Ventures.

The Enterprise AI Coding Opportunity

The enterprise AI coding opportunity is no longer about individual developers — it is organization-wide. Enterprises are deploying AI coding agents across their software estates, and the productivity opportunity is moving from individual developer gains to organization-wide impact. Capturing that opportunity at scale requires the right tools for AI agents to operate accurately and consistently inside complex enterprise environments. That is what Moderne provides. Built on the OpenRewrite open-source project, the Moderne Platform provides the deterministic, governed infrastructure coding agents need to reason accurately, act consistently, and deliver outcomes across complex codebases.

Three Partnership Pillars

At Moderne, Finkelstein will focus on three partnership pillars: go-to-market acceleration with hyperscalers and AI model providers; solution delivery scale through global systems integrators; and regional partnerships that extend Moderne's reach across enterprise markets. His mandate is to translate product momentum into enterprise scale through the partner ecosystem. Finkelstein joins as Moderne's Agent Tools platform continues to expand, with recent launches including Prethink, a structured semantic context layer for coding agents, and TriGrep, a high-speed code search purpose-built for agents.

As Jonathan Schneider, CEO and co-founder of Moderne, stated: "Enterprise software environments are complex, and partnerships are how Moderne delivers deterministic agent tools into production at scale. Fink is the right leader to scale that motion."

Matt Finkelstein, Chief Partnerships Officer at Moderne, added: "Partnerships are not only a sales function. They are how value gets delivered. If you do not build that into the company from the start, it is very difficult to bolt on later. That is exactly what Moderne is doing here."
