Mohana Chintalapati, CISSP — DevOps Manager
I started out as a Security Consultant, transformed into a Security Engineer, and over the years filled various roles - Senior Manager, Security Architect, and now Principal Security Engineer. With 9+ years of hands-on experience in product security, I’ve seen and secured the full spectrum, from design to deployment. I’ve been at startups where I did it all, and at product companies where I focused deeply on specific areas of security. Along the way, I’ve built security teams, trained developers on secure coding, brought together dev, sec, and ops teams, and done my fair share of DevSecOps. I love dissecting complex architectures to uncover weaknesses, identify threats, and design practical, scalable defences. I’ve spent uncountable hours doing threat models and code reviews and now, I’m leveraging AI to make that a number we can actually count. An infosec enthusiast at heart, I’m always learning and exploring how to secure emerging technologies, especially AI-driven products and systems. Core skills: Threat Modeling, Secure Coding, Secure Architecture, Zero-Trust Models, Microservices Security, Open Source Security, Secure SDLC, Automation and CI/CD Integrations, Vulnerability Assessments, Security trainings, and supporting compliance (ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS). Well versed in secure code reviews of applications / frameworks in Java, Javascript, GoLang, TS, .Net, Python, Ruby, PHP etc.
