Evan and Eli came together in the open-source community as two technologists determined to solve a massive problem. With Evan’s visionary thinking and Eli’s practical expertise grown from the battle scars of working on one of the world’s largest SPIFFE deployments, they laid the foundation for SPIRL, driven by a shared understanding of the gaps in workload identity management.
From day one, they were driven to solve the toughest challenges in workload security—helping companies adopt zero trust security for distributed systems by replacing outdated credential management with frictionless, automated and dynamic identity controls.
To bring their vision to life, they partnered with Danny, whose strategic expertise in taking new security technologies to market perfectly aligned with their goals. Together, their distinct strengths and unified vision have propelled SPIRL into the Enterprise space achieving fast traction with some of the world’s largest companies. Built on a foundation of trust and innovation, they have transformed SPRIL into a thriving business, battle-tested by the challenges of scaling and solving critical customer needs.
Today, SPIRL is transforming how businesses approach workload identity and access management, eliminating secrets management with zero trust security and dynamic workload verification to reduce risks, strengthen governance, and deliver operational agility.
SPIRL, founded in 2022, leads the shift toward modern workload identity and zero-trust design. With decades of expertise from veterans of ByteDance, Stripe, VMware, Google, Amazon, and more, we help customers embrace these innovations.
Our culture thrives on technical excellence, kindness, and a focus on securing production environments.
Evan has over 15 years of experience at the intersection of computer networking, security, and reliability engineering. As the author of “Zero Trust Networks”, (O'Reilly 2017) and the creator of the first workload identity standard (SPIFFE, a CNCF Graduated project), Evan brings a unique understanding of these complex challenges—and how to solve them.
Eli is a globally recognized security expert with nearly 20 years of experience designing and operating systems at companies like Facebook, Shape Security, and F5 Networks. Known for simplifying complex systems, he makes cybersecurity more accessible and efficient. Eli co-authored “Solving the Bottom Turtle” and architected one of the world’s largest SPIFFE deployments, scaling to over 1 million nodes.
With over two decades of leadership experience in cybersecurity and enterprise software, Danny brings deep expertise in scaling operations and driving strategic growth for technology companies. His proven track record includes leading multiple organizations through successful acquisitions by industry giants, while consistently building high-performing teams and exceeding revenue targets.
