Senior🎓
Top SchoolGavin Miller is a seasoned application security leader with 15 years of software engineering experience, currently serving as Director of Application Security at Clio in Calgary. He has a strong track record of building pragmatic security programs—ranging from bug bounty and dependency review systems to red teaming, incident response, and platform-wide fraud detection engines—that measurably reduced risk and sped recovery times. Gavin combines hands-on engineering chops (Ruby, JavaScript, Python, .NET) with people leadership, having grown and led teams through roadmaps, post-acquisition assessments, and major product launches like Clio Payments. He’s known for automating tedious processes into minutes-long workflows, for example shrinking CVE discovery and remediation cycles from a day to under five minutes. Beyond tooling and controls, he blends security with product needs—designing TFA recovery flows and anti-fraud measures that balanced user experience with risk mitigation. His background spans startup founding, instructor roles, and enterprise software engineering, giving him a rare mix of operational, architectural, and coaching strengths.
