About Julian
Bridging the gap between security and the people who build software
I've just started a new chapter as Lead Solutions Architect at XBOW — bringing 20+ years of application security experience to a new challenge.
Before joining XBOW, I spent nearly a decade at Veracode as Senior Principal Solution Architect, leading teams across EMEA and APAC. Most recently, I worked closely with the product management team to help shape the direction of our products — turning field insights and customer realities into roadmap decisions that actually stick.
In 2026 I published Mastering the Art of Application Security Testing — a practical guide for development managers, DevSecOps leads, and CISOs navigating SAST, DAST, SCA, and container security tools. I'm also a regular speaker at international conferences on AppSec, DevSecOps, and the evolving role of AI in security testing.
On the technical side: I would never call myself a developer — but I can read, write, and occasionally survive code, which apparently puts me in a very niche and dangerous category.
