Since joining Suffolk in 2018, Jit Kee Chin has successfully
overseen implementation of technology, data and advanced analytics
to improve the organization’s core business and fundamentally
reinvent the future of construction. Ms. Chin is also the
Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Suffolk Technologies, the
venture capital affiliate of Suffolk that funds the next generation
of companies solving built environment challenges. Prior to her
role at Suffolk, Ms. Chin spent ten years with management
consulting firm McKinsey and Company where she counseled senior
executives on strategic, commercial and advanced analytics topics.
She holds a Ph.D. in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology and a BS from the California Institute of
Technology.
Ms. Chin continues to drive change at Suffolk by integrating
artificial intelligence (AI) into all facets of daily operations.
AI will have countless benefits from increasing efficiencies by
streamlining and automating repetitive tasks, to analyzing

construction projects to create more informed decision making.
“This recognition from AutoDesk is a testament to the advances
Suffolk continues to make in cutting-edge technology and data. I am
surrounded by a talented, mission-driven team who strive to make
our industry better,” said Ms. Chin. “None of this would be
possible without the investments Mr. Fish has made, and I am
grateful for his support.”
