Summary
Tristan Dostaler is a Senior Product Security Developer with 11 years of technology experience and a full-time career in InfoSec since 2018. He has progressed from .NET eCommerce developer to pentester and now to blue-team leader and InfoSec architect, having led incident response, SOC operations and SIEM/MDR product efforts. Tristan combines hands-on development skills (early career as a programmer and architect) with practical security engineering—building in-house SIEMs, automating DFIR workflows, and developing security tooling. Based in Greater Montreal, he has held leadership roles at OKIOK and now MaintainX while maintaining a technical blog and long-standing freelance/hosting work. Colleagues describe him as someone who moves between strategic architecture and gritty technical execution, improving security culture as much as infrastructure. His background in audiovisual systems and embedded integrations gives him an uncommon systems-thinking lens when investigating complex incidents.
