Diego Provinciani is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade of experience delivering cross-platform client and endpoint software across Windows, Linux, macOS, mobile and TV platforms. He blends deep systems and security expertise—honed at Intel, McAfee-related research, and Wazuh where he improved vulnerability detection in a widely used open-source SIEM—with hands-on C/C++ and Python engineering and automated testing. As an engineering manager he coordinated multi-team feature delivery, and more recently led a multi-platform SDK program, building CI/CD, AWS infrastructure and backend services in Go and Node.js. Diego is equally comfortable designing low-level Windows services and shaping product-facing SDKs for iOS/Android, and he has presented R&D work at security conferences like BSides and Ekoparty. He combines a pragmatic focus on reliability and automation with a persistent drive for research-led innovation.
