What you likely need
You're a technical co-founder in the early stages of building Proxyble, a real-time API behavior engine targeting authenticated client abuse — a sharp, differentiated wedge in the API security space. Your background spans CTO roles at multiple startups and hands-on engineering at scale (Ancestry, TruSTAR), which gives you strong technical credibility to open doors with infrastructure and security-focused investors. The highest-leverage events for you right now are those that connect you with seed-stage investors in developer tools and security, and with other technical founders who can sharpen your go-to-market narrative.
