Pallav Gupta is the Co-Founder and CTO of Emphere, a Seattle-based cybersecurity startup automating software vulnerability remediation for companies serving regulated industries.

Pallav holds a Master's degree in Computer Science from Northeastern University, where he also met his co-founder Ankit Kumar as roommates.

Pallav is a builder at heart who believes in technology that adapts to people, championing remediation intelligence over detection-only security approaches.

Prior to Emphere, Pallav was a Software Engineer at Twitter and CarGurus, specializing in data pipelines and advertising APIs, and co-founded MYSTiQUE AI Inc. as Chief Architect.

Emphere raised a $2.1M pre-seed round led by AI2 Incubator and Outsiders Fund, and has launched the open-source OVRSE Spec to establish a vendor-neutral standard for vulnerability remediation.
