Ian Khor is a founder and Senior Product Manager based in Tokyo with a decade of experience building AI-enabled developer and security products that teams can actually trust. At GitLab he ships features at the intersection of AI, governance, and developer experience—like Security Analyst Agent and SAST False Positive Detection—that speed teams up without sacrificing accountability. His unusual background as a lawyer informs a systems-first approach to product design, emphasizing auditability, risk management, and the real-world gap between policy and practice. As a solo founder of Dowyn, he runs the entire product lifecycle and builds the app using AI-assisted coding tools, giving him hands-on credibility with the developer experience he designs for. He combines technical fluency in web and iOS development with commercial instincts honed across enterprise SaaS and marketplace products. If you care about pragmatic AI governance, developer workflows, and user-centered tooling, he brings both the domain expertise and maker’s perspective.
