Attom Solutions Inc. Brings on Ex-Zillow Executive Matt Gilliland as Chief Product Officer

Property data provider ASI announced it has appointed Matt Gilliland, a veteran of Zillow Group’s product organization, to serve as its chief product officer. The hire puts a longtime consumer real-estate technology operator in charge of product strategy at a company that supplies data and tools to housing industry participants.

Gilliland’s background at Zillow Group spans product leadership roles during a period when the Seattle-based marketplace expanded across its Residential, Mortgages, and Rentals businesses. Zillow, which operates a real estate application connecting consumers with agents, loan officers, and digital solutions, currently trades at $30.29, up 0.33% from its prior close of $30.19, with a market capitalization of roughly $7.27 billion.

The move reflects a broader pattern in proptech hiring, where established marketplaces have become a talent pipeline for data, valuation, and workflow companies building products for agents, lenders, and institutional buyers. Product chiefs with marketplace experience often bring familiarity with consumer acquisition funnels, machine-learning-driven estimates, and large-scale platform design — capabilities that data vendors have increasingly sought as they push beyond raw data delivery into software.

ASI has not disclosed specific product roadmaps tied to the appointment. Leadership additions at the CPO level typically signal an emphasis on consolidating product direction across data, analytics, and customer-facing tools, particularly at firms competing for share among brokerages, mortgage originators, and asset managers that rely on timely housing data.

For Zillow, executive departures to supplier-side and data companies are a recurring feature of the sector, and the company continues to operate across its four reported categories: Residential, Mortgages, Rentals, and Other. The stock’s modest move on the day underscores that the departure itself is unlikely to register as a material event for the marketplace operator’s public investors.

What to watch

• ASI’s next product announcements under Gilliland, including any new data or analytics offerings for real estate professionals.
• Zillow’s upcoming quarterly earnings report, where management may address product organization changes and segment performance across Residential, Mortgages, and Rentals.
• Further senior hiring moves among property data and valuation firms as competition for proptech talent continues.
