Top SchoolSteph Sikorra is a Co-Founder and CTO and seasoned software leader with 17+ years of engineering experience and 11 years in senior roles focused on cybersecurity and distributed systems. Based in Seattle, she has driven end-to-end architecture and delivery of production SaaS platforms using AWS serverless patterns, achieving multi-tenant performance (99.9% uptime, sub-100ms responses) and SOC 2–grade security controls. She has deep expertise in secure remote access and orchestration—authoritative on SSH proxying, terminal communication, and large-scale agent software—and has led teams through complex full-stack .NET and embedded systems projects. Steph builds developer-first delivery pipelines, with extensive CI/CD automation, hundreds of unit tests, and zero-downtime deployments, and she integrates AI to automate business workflows like personalized invitation generation. Her background spans defense-grade embedded systems at BAE to commercial identity/security software at Delinea, giving her a pragmatic blend of low-level systems knowledge and cloud-native product strategy. Curious and creative (a Computer Science degree with a Studio Art minor), she often surfaces design-driven solutions that balance usability with rigorous security.
