Security doesn’t have to lag behind innovation
With Levo, it leads

As Engineering Leader at AppDynamics, Buchi helped unlock $100M+ in quarterly revenue by scaling the platform for enterprise demand.

He led the migration from a monolith to a micro services architecture, making enterprise adoption possible.

To manage this complexity, he led Kubernetes adoption years before it became mainstream.

This exposed him to how APIs, by modularizing functionality and enabling autonomous service scaling, accelerated deployments, integrations, and ultimately revenue growth.

At Traceable, Buchi began building API specific production tooling but realized that production guardrails were too little too late.

Every vulnerability found post-release triggered manual triage, broken SLAs, and customer risk problems that could’ve been avoided with early detection.

What the industry lacked was a scalable and proactive system that could automate all shift left practices so only exploit-proof code reached production.

So he left with one conviction: security must be architected inside the SDLC, not bolted in at the end.

Buchi founded Levo to fix what security had gotten wrong for decades about Software not just for APIs.

He built a security engine that embeds all best practices directly into the SDLC automatically, proactively, continuously, and contextually.

Thereby shattering the assumptions that held AppSec back for decades:
1. That velocity and security can’t co-exist.
2. That shift-left depends on devs maintaining docs.
3. That posture improvement requires cloud bloat and manual triage.

Levo was designed not to keep up with Software, but to stay ahead of it.
