About
Hi, I’m Christian Lete, a Security Engineering & Infrastructure Leader based in Zurich, Switzerland, with 20+ years designing and scaling cloud and on-prem Linux platforms. I partner with engineering teams to build resilient, secure infrastructure using CI/CD, DevSecOps, zero trust, and infrastructure-as-code, across AWS, GCP, and on-prem environments.
I translate security strategy into engineering outcomes, driving incident response, cloud security architecture, and a culture of secure software delivery. I love mentoring teams, shaping engineering strategy, and delivering scalable, secure systems that enable software innovation rather than constrain it. I enjoy cross-functional collaboration and leading DevSecOps adoption across organizations.
