Jelle De Laender is a seasoned software entrepreneur and security-minded engineering leader with 14 years of experience building and operating web, Mac, and iOS products from Ghent, Belgium. As CEO of Semonto and owner of Coding Mammoth he helps companies stay in control by shipping monitoring, automation and infrastructure tools that reduce downtime and operational surprises.
