Leonid Belkind, Co-Founder and CTO at StackPulse, has joined the DEVOPSdigest Vendor Forum.
As CTO at StackPulse, Belkind is responsible for setting the technology direction, architecture, and strategy for the company's continuous reliability platform. Through his career, Belkind has witnessed the modern software engineering practices replace the traditional ones, first around Continuous Integration and Delivery pipelines, then Infrastructure Management and Monitoring, and onwards as software services have replaced on-premises products. Belkind is passionate about building reliability-first architectures, methodologies and organizational culture. Prior to co-founding StackPulse in 2020, he was co-founder and CTO of Luminate Security, a pioneer in Zero Trust Network Access and Secure Access Services Edge, until it was acquired by Symantec. Before Luminate, Belkind managed software development organizations at CheckPoint Software Technologies that delivered enterprise firewalls and other network security products.
