Varendra Maurya — CEO
I build things. Real things that solve actual problems—not just "innovative solutions" that sound good in pitch decks. Started my entrepreneurial path at IIT Dharwad, where our team won first place building a bus tracking system that NWKRTC (Govt. entity) actually deployed in production. That's when I learned the difference between building demos and building products that work in the real world. Founded Doorstep Dailies to fix rural grocery delivery—because rural communities deserve better than being ignored by urban-focused platforms. Built the entire stack with simple techs, it wasn't glamorous, but it worked. Then came Techwize360, where we delivered software solutions. No fluff, no over-engineering—just reliable systems that do their job. Now I'm at CloudDefense.AI leading sales, engineering, and GTM strategy. We're cutting through the AppSec noise with QINA Clarity AI—98% accuracy, real threat detection, no false positive theater. The tech industry has enough people building "solutions looking for problems." I focus on problems that need solving—starting with making security tools that developers actually want to use. If you're tired of overcomplicated tools and want to build things that work, let's connect.
