I’m the founder of a stealth-mode SaaS startup. My background:

• Previously, I was a Staff Security Engineer at Square, where I built, architected, and led the Cloud Vulnerability Management program.
• Before Square, I was a Lead Security Engineer at Salesforce, where I lead and pioneer a variety of security initiatives, with a special focus in security automation. At Salesforce, I open sourced several security tools, including Cloudsplaining, which has over 4.5 million downloads as of January 2023, and Endgame.
• Before Salesforce, I ran the Cloud Security Consulting Practice at Synopsys.
• I started out my career as a Web Application Penetration Tester and Security Consultant at Cigital, which was acquired by Synopsys.

I’m passionate about security automation, CI/CD, Cloud Security, and creating a better security experience for everyone, especially developers and operations.
