Rahul Jadhav is a CTO and co-founder driving AccuKnox’s zero-trust CNAPP platform from Bengaluru, blending hands-on systems engineering with product leadership built on patented container-security and data-provenance innovations. With nearly two decades of deep technical experience across networking, transport and security, he has designed eBPF- and k8s-native solutions, SPIFFE/SPIRE identity integrations, and multi-cluster deployments. A CNCF Ambassador and maintainer of KubeArmor, he actively shapes cloud-native security tooling and standards, and chairs Nephio’s SIG-Security to align telecom-grade deployments with supply-chain and Kubernetes best practices. His open-source contributions include implementing RPL support in Scapy, reflecting uncommon protocol-level expertise across IoT mesh and transport stacks. Previously a lead architect at Huawei, he optimized low-latency transports, userspace network stacks and multipath protocols, pairing research-grade systems work with product delivery. Rahul combines startup grit with carrier-scale engineering, often translating low-level kernel and networking innovations into practical, deployable security products.
