PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 26, 2024—OnPoint Community Credit Union is pleased to announce the promotion of technology and cybersecurity expert Damian Laviolette to Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer (CIO), after an extensive national talent search. He joins the Executive Team of Oregon's largest credit union, which serves over 576,000 members and manages $9.4 billion in assets.

As CIO, Laviolette will lead OnPoint’s information technology and digital banking teams, driving technology innovation to enhance member services and strengthen the credit union’s cybersecurity infrastructure. Laviolette has worked at OnPoint since 2022. He previously served as Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO).

“We are thrilled to have Damian step into this critical leadership role,” said Rob Stuart, President and Chief Executive Officer of OnPoint Community Credit Union. “Damian’s deep expertise in information security and risk management, paired with his commitment to operational excellence, make him the ideal candidate to guide our technology strategy as we expand our digital services for members.”

Laviolette has over 30 years of experience in IT and information security across financial services, government and defense sectors. Throughout his career, he has built and led information technology and security teams responsible for innovation, transformation, operations, compliance, policy, audit and risk management. He also served 20 years in the United States Army in numerous roles leading technology and cybersecurity teams, ending his career as a Chief Warrant Officer in the Signal Corps.

He holds a master’s degree in information security and assurance and is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP). Laviolette and his wife are active in the community and enjoy hiking, traveling, and deep-sea fishing with their three children.
