About speaker

Jeremy Brown

GitGuardian

CTO

Jeremy Brown is CTO at GitGuardian, the security platform specialising in secrets detection, non-human identity governance, and developer security. He joined after the Series B and has helped lead engineering through to the company’s Series C, growing an engineering team that today numbers 60 people — and is still hiring.
Jeremy is passionate about helping people thrive and to cultivate environments that unlock a team’s potential to achieve remarkable outcomes. GitGuardian’s Engineering organisation is currently transforming into an AI-native engineering organisation. With 80–90% of code now AI-generated, the team is pursuing a “dark factory” vision — building systems that take detailed specs and output features autonomously, shifting engineers from writing code to designing, reviewing, and orchestrating AI agents.
His career spans engineering, product, and sales across multiple continents. He has held CTO and Chief Product & Technology Officer roles, built and led distributed, multicultural organisations of over 130 people, and helped build Red Hat’s Open Innovation Labs. Earlier in his journey, he and a friend set out on motorbikes from London to Cape Town — three years later, they hadn’t quite made it, but had started Limbe Labs, Cameroon’s first startup incubator, providing seed funding and mentoring to founders. Jeremy lives in France.
