Our experienced operational leaders scaling business, technology, and global presence.

Kiran Choudary

CFO

In 2014, Rubrik's co-founders did something the industry wasn't doing: they looked at the world's most critical, most neglected problem in technology—the gaping hole in enterprise backup—and built for it. The legacy backup vendors at the time were built for natural disasters and human error, not cyber. Nobody was engineering for the threat that was actually coming.
