Summary
Daniel Chyan is a founding CTO and principal-level engineer with 13 years of experience leading AI transformation and cloud-native infrastructure initiatives from Los Angeles. He co-founded and scaled PKC Security’s DevOps arm, architecting multi-cloud, microservices and consolidation strategies and delivering million-dollar engagements with AWS and Azure. At FiscalNote he grew applications engineering from 8 to 23 engineers to accelerate feature velocity ahead of IPO activities, and now leads product and technical strategy at Jericho Security while running Chyan Consulting. Daniel combines hands-on systems work—Clojure tooling, Ansible-driven provisioning, Cassandra/Redis-backed platforms—with people leadership across distributed teams. He’s comfortable moving between low-level infrastructure (pre-signed S3 uploads, ZeroMQ networking) and high-level AI/product strategy, making him a practical translator between research, engineering, and business priorities. A Princeton-educated computer scientist, he favors pragmatic, secure designs that scale in production.
