Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJed Salazar is Head of Security and Field CTO based in Vancouver with a decade of experience architecting security for large-scale distributed and cloud-native systems. He specializes in cutting-edge areas from eBPF observability to software supply chain protection, helping web hyper-scalers and startups harden their cloud platforms. His background spans core infrastructure roles at Google, platform reliability at Pivotal and Heptio, and security engineering at Chainguard and Isovalent, giving him rare cross-discipline fluency in networking, SRE, and cloud-native security. A published author and KubeCon speaker, Jed pairs hands-on technical leadership with community-driven advocacy and an eye for pragmatic, auditable solutions. Not obvious from the title: he combines low-level packet and kernel experience with platform-level security strategy, enabling end-to-end risk reduction across complex distributed environments.
