Kamal is co-founder and CTO at Andromeda, which is building an identity management solution to help companies better understand their identity footprint and manage excessive permissions across disparate platforms. Kamal uses the term "digital incarnation" which resonated with me given the number of accounts a single human may have across different platforms. Kamal worked as an engineer and engineering leader for two decades across Oracle, Ebay, and Paypal before starting Andromeda in 2023. In the episode, we start by discussing his experience working as an offshore developer in India and how that influences his own perspective on leveraging offshore teams today. We also cover the cultural differences at eBay and Paypal, how that influenced his security mindset, the origin story of Andromeda, and the future of identity.
