Git Guardian is a global cybersecurity scale-up. The company is based in Paris, New York City, and Boston. Among our early investors who saw our market value proposition are the co-founder of Git Hub, Scott Chacon, along with Solomon Hykes, Docker's co-founder. American and European top-tier VC firms have also invested in Git Guardian, which raised its Series C in early 2026.

Git Guardian helps enterprises close credential-based breach paths. It finds secrets wherever they live, prioritizes remediation based on rich context, and prevents new exposure across code, systems, and AI. The Git Guardian platform is already used by more than 600K developers worldwide and by 50 of the Fortune 500.

• Be Git Guardian's most senior external security voice — engaging CISOs, App Sec leaders, and board-level stakeholders at Fortune 500 and regulated enterprises
• Build and own our CISO & CTO Advisory Board from scratch — 6 to 10 executive leaders who shape our product, open doors, and drive net new pipeline
• Accelerate enterprise deals by showing up as a peer, not a vendor
• Own our strategic narrative — developer security, secrets management, AI risk, non-human identity — and keep it sharp as the market moves
• Represent Git Guardian at FS-ISAC, Health-ISAC, and executive round tables where it matters
• Be the feedback loop between the market and our Product, Marketing, and Leadership teams
• Raise the bar internally — SE, AEs, executive communication, GTM maturity

• Former CISO, Deputy CISO, or Head of App Sec — or a senior security leader from a top cybersecurity company, with 10+ years in the field
• Technically credible:
  App Sec, developer security, secrets management, cloud, Dev Sec Ops , NHI — you can go deep with technical CISOs, not just executive buyers
• Calm, high-judgment presence — you build trust fast, communicate with clarity and nuance, and leave ego at the door
• A natural connector: extroverted, great listener, thrives building relationships through dinners, round tables, and long-term trust
• Consultative, not pitchy — you listen first, navigate organizational complexity, and respond with tailored insight
• Ideally, you've lived this problem operationally — as a former Git Guardian customer or someone who has deployed developer security tooling inside an enterprise. You can say "I've been on your side of the table" and mean it
