Summary
Paul Siri is a founder and senior principal solutions architect with 15+ years designing security-first, automation-driven networking and multi-cloud platforms for enterprises and research institutions across Silicon Valley. He built and commercialized BitBodyguard’s Secure Enterprise Cloud platforms on AWS and GCP—Terraform-powered landing zones and managed DevSecOps stacks that have achieved HIPAA, PCI, NIST, and HITRUST attestations across hundreds of accounts. Paul blends deep hands-on skills in cloud, networking, and zero-trust security (Transit Gateway, Prisma, Palo Alto, NGFWs) with extensive automation expertise (Terraform, Ansible, GitOps) to cut deployment time and human error dramatically. He has led large-scale, compliance-focused programs for clients like UCSF, Gilead, Bristol Myers Squibb and Arcus, and is known for translating complex regulatory requirements into repeatable IaC patterns. A former network engineer with a 3.93 GPA from San José State, he pairs practitioner-level technical depth (100+ certifications) with entrepreneurial productization of secure cloud operations. Outside work he’s a Palo Alto-based family man and avid tech and Star Wars fan who still finds time to prototype automation and image-hardening tools.
