Summary
Stan Kocken is a seasoned technology leader and CTO based in Paris with 13 years of experience building and scaling consumer and health-tech platforms. He currently leads engineering and product-aligned technology strategy at Kiro after driving architecture, security-by-design, and cross-platform growth as Lead Architect at Dashlane for millions of users. A hands-on manager, he has built and scaled Android and data engineering teams, opened a new Lisbon office, and maintained unusually low turnover while growing orgs from tens to hundreds of engineers. Co-founder of Sesterce and organizer of the Android Makers conference, he blends startup grit with enterprise-grade practices across Swift, Kotlin, Node.js, React and AWS. Less obvious: his background spans both product-focused mobile engineering and platform-level security, giving him a rare mix of UI/UX sensibility and rigorous infrastructure stewardship.
