David Lintz is chief executive of TurnKey Lender, the Austin company whose cloud software automates loan origination, decisioning, servicing, and collections for banks and non-bank lenders in more than 50 countries.
Software Exits And A New Mandate
Lintz spent 25 years building and running software companies backed by private equity. Before he arrived at TurnKey Lender, he worked with Thoma Bravo, K1 Private Equity, and Morgan Stanley on three company sales. He has led organizations generating more than $300M in annual recurring revenue across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Australia, and has built sales and go-to-market teams that grow predictably.
He took the role after Sundance Growth led a growth investment in August 2025, with existing backers including DEG and OTB Ventures. The founders, Dmytro Voronenko and Elena Ionenko, had built the product since 2014 and remained closely involved. Lintz’s job is to grow the sales and customer success teams and to push the platform further into banking and embedded lending.
The Platform He Inherited
TurnKey Lender now counts more than 200 clients and has been rated a Leader by IDC MarketScape for North American consumer and small business lending decisioning. Under the new capital, the company is putting more work into generative AI features and country-specific editions. Lintz is the first chief executive brought in from outside the founding team, and the test of his tenure will be whether a product built for lenders in more than 50 countries can keep growing without losing the configuration depth those clients already rely on.
