Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOrlando Erazo is a security engineering leader with 25+ years of hands-on experience across software engineering, cloud architecture, DevSecOps and product security, currently heading Atlassian’s Infrastructure Security Engineering function from Melbourne. He designs and scales automated security guardrails across AWS and GCP to protect 300,000+ customers while making security measurable and minimally frictional, including early work on AI-related product controls. Known for translating technical risk into board-level strategy, Orlando has led multi-cloud security uplifts, reduced manual review cycles by ~40% through AI-assisted tooling, and defined posture visibility for ~300 infrastructure requirements. He builds and mentors high-performing teams from intern to principal levels and has a strong track record of driving cloud migrations, IaC adoption, and developer enablement across fast-moving organisations. Unusually for a senior manager, he remains deeply technical—authoring guardrails, threat models, and automation—and pairs strategic influence with day-to-day implementation.
