Summary
Devesh Mittal is a deep-engineering technology leader and founder with 10 years of experience building end-to-end systems that span silicon, kernel, networking, cloud, machine learning and security. As Co‑Founder and Head of Engineering at Exaforce and former Senior Director of Product Development at F5, he led WAAP and distributed cloud application security products from concept through production, hiring and scaling cross-functional teams. His background as an ASIC/NPU architect and RTL designer at NVIDIA and Ericsson gives him uncommon hardware-to-cloud fluency, enabling novel algorithms and product designs for edge and security use cases. He combines product instincts with hands-on implementation—writing code, architecting distributed systems, and defining ML and hardware algorithms—so he can move ideas from slides to customer deployments. Based in Karnataka, India, he brings a rare mix of CPU/NPU design, PCB and RTL experience alongside cloud-native and application security expertise.
