Owning Your Slice of the World with Guy Podjarny

Guy Podjarny, co-founder and President of Snyk, has seen the world of startups through the lens of an employee and as a founder. With two companies under his belt, Guy has excelled as an entrepreneur as Snyk proves to be a leader in developer security.

In this episode of Cloud Native Startup, Guy shares insight on his first startup, Blaze (acquired by Akamai), and his current company, Snyk. He lends perspective on key traits to master when building a successful company and why it’s an exciting time to be an entrepreneur. We also explore why there are major gaps in security, what it will take to fix them, and how Snyk is helping close the gap by decentralizing security.

Highlights:

  • Guy’s interesting evolution from working at startups to finally founding his own. (00:14)
  • Exploring the differences between two worlds: security and DevOps. (05:40)
  • Why Guy sold his first company, Blaze - and lessons learned along the way. (10:27)
  • Guy’s perspective on embracing Snyk’s “failures” - and he reflects on the journey towards identifying their opportunities within the market. (17:27)
  • A discussion about major gaps in security and how Snyke aims to be a solution. (27:39)
