Summary

Julia recently joined GitGuardian to lead product management for Internal Monitoring for on-premise clients, bringing extensive experience from roles in software production, application management, and incident management in both B2B and B2C environments. Educated at Supinfo Paris with an initial interest in video game programming, Julia chose to keep gaming as a passion rather than a career. Her volunteer work with the Mozilla Foundation in promoting FOSS inclusion honed her project management and translation skills, leading to a strong affinity for improving software documentation, which she views as critical to product success. Although new to cybersecurity, Julia's curiosity and prior exposure to DevOps challenges, such as secrets sprawl, motivated her to join GitGuardian, impressed by the company's focus on product excellence and team dynamics. Her positive experience with GitGuardian stems from its supportive work culture, prioritizing mental health over long hours, and she expresses a desire to further gender diversity in tech through volunteering.
