Summary

👤
Senior
Chaitanya is a research scientist and founder-CEO of Yokai Network with 11 years of hands-on experience in cybersecurity and vulnerability research. Based in Amsterdam, he blends entrepreneurial leadership with deep technical practice, shipping tools and defenses while steering product and strategy. He contributes actively to open-source security tooling—most notably enhancing the exploit development framework lisa.py with substantial refactors and new debugging/exploitation commands. Colleagues know him for turning low-level exploit techniques into reusable tooling that accelerates analysis and red-team capabilities. He pairs pragmatic engineering with a researcher’s curiosity, often surfacing subtle failure modes that improve overall system resilience. Outside of boardroom strategy, he still writes core code and drives technical direction.
