Senior🎓
Top SchoolSebastian Maniak is a seasoned technology evangelist and technical product marketing leader with over 25 years of experience driving security, cloud architecture, automation, and AI adoption across enterprise and startup ecosystems. Based in Toronto, he blends hands-on cloud architecture expertise (Google Cloud, AWS, Terraform, Vault, service mesh) with persuasive go-to-market craft, creating demos, deep-dive content, and enablement that turn complex tech into buyer-ready solutions. As a recognized community leader (F5 DevCentral MVP, HashiCorp and SNYK Ambassador) he influences product direction and developer adoption while consulting for companies like Solo.io, HashiCorp, Fortinet, and Google. He pairs post-sales solution engineering experience with executive advisory and teaching roles—training the next generation on applied network security and infrastructure-as-code. Notably, Sebastian moves seamlessly between building agentic AI/LLM security patterns and evangelizing semantic caching and prompt-guarding architectures that help enterprises safely scale AI. His background as a founder, professor, and field technologist gives him a rare combination of product, technical, and community-first perspectives.
