Epicor, Austin, Texas-based industry-specific enterprise software major, has named Indian American tech leader Vaibhav Vohra as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective Oct. 1.
Vohra succeeds Steve Murphy, who will step down as CEO at the close of Epicor’s fiscal year, Sept. 30 and will continue to serve on the company’s Board of Directors, the company announced.
The transition is the outcome of a planned succession process led by Epicor’s Board of Directors, beginning with Vohra’s appointment to President in October 2024.
“Vaibhav is a proven leader with deep experience in enterprise software, and I am confident he is the right person to lead Epicor into its next chapter,” said Jeff Hawn, Chair of Epicor’s Board of Directors.

Vohra joined Epicor in 2021 as Chief Product Officer and has since taken on roles of increasing responsibility, most recently as President and Chief Product and Technology Officer.

Before Epicor, he built and scaled technology businesses, including as a product leader at Gecko Robotics, and held executive product roles at SAP.
“I am honored to lead Epicor as we enter a new era of transformation across enterprise software. Over the past five years, I’ve seen firsthand the people, customers, and partners that make this company special. Our focus remains on helping our customers grow and succeed in an increasingly dynamic world,” said Vohra.
