// who you’ll work with
Who you’ll work with.
You work directly with senior people who do the work themselves. Engagements are led by co-founder Vaisakh Sreedharan, with 15+ years across cloud, compliance, and threat detection, and everyone we bring on is held to the same hands-on standard. Co-founder Vidula Ashok drives brand and growth.
// why we exist
Why we exist.
Most startups reach a point where they hold real customer data but can’t yet justify a full-time security hire. That gap is exactly where things go wrong. Sheer Safe fills it, senior, practical security you bring in when you need it, without the enterprise price tag or the full-time headcount.
