Summary
Andrew Batz is a Security Operations Developer with 11 years of experience building and securing cloud-native systems, risk programs, and CI/CD pipelines across highly regulated environments. He has architected and defended platforms that processed over $2 billion, founded WealthForge’s cybersecurity program, and led SOC2 Type II readiness from first principles. Equally at home inventing hardware and software, he developed the Eden Sensor Blade IoT mesh for algae farming and prototypes for firefighting drones under his independent firm Batz SP. Based in the DC–Baltimore area, he combines hands-on development, pragmatic policy creation, and red-team experience to reduce real-world risk. Curious and product-minded, he favors practical automation—once building an early ML alerting system that predicted API problems up to 12 hours ahead.
