In 1998 Greene co-founded VMware, a pioneer in computing virtualization solutions, serving as its CEO until 2008. She also co-founded and was the CEO of VXtreme, bought by Microsoft in 1997, and Bebop, bought by Google in 2015. She previously served as the CEO of Google’s Cloud Division from 2015 through 2018 as well as on the board of directors for Intuit from 2006 to 2018 and for Alphabet from 2012 to 2019.
