Kindo AI Appoints Veteran Revenue Leader Mathew Varghese as Chief Revenue Officer

VENICE, Calif., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Kindo AI, the AI-native automation platform powering the next wave of SecOps and DevOps innovation, today announced that Mathew Varghese has joined the company as its new chief revenue officer (CRO).

With a career spanning over 25 years, Varghese is a seasoned sales executive who has built and led some of the most successful revenue organizations in cybersecurity. He began his career in 1997, advancing through the ranks from sales engineer to director of sales engineering and then to enterprise account executive across multiple high-growth security companies.

He played a pivotal role at Duo Security as the company's first enterprise sales representative, where he helped establish the enterprise go-to-market motion. He quickly moved into a global sales leadership role at Duo, building and scaling the sales team during the early growth phase.

After Duo, Varghese led strategic accounts at Tanium and later served as vice president of sales at Bromium. As the first sales leader and vice president of sales for the Americas at Silverfort, he spent nearly six years scaling the region from early-stage customer wins to tens of millions in annual recurring revenue (ARR), while navigating global uncertainty during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under Varghese's leadership, Silverfort's presence in the Americas matured from scrappy startup to a trusted identity security partner for enterprises across multiple industries.

"The opportunity at Kindo AI reminds me of the early chapters at companies like Duo and Silverfort," said Mathew Varghese, CRO, Kindo AI. "It's a rare chance to lead revenue growth for a company that's not only solving a massive problem, but doing it in a completely new way, with AI-native speed, embedded security, and operational simplicity. I'm honored to join the team and help scale this vision."

"Mathew's track record speaks for itself," said Ron Williams, CEO and co-founder, Kindo AI. "He's helped build category-defining companies from the ground up. He understands how to grow early-stage startups, sell complex security technology, and lead with both empathy and urgency. We couldn't ask for a better partner to lead our revenue team."

Varghese joins Kindo AI at a momentous time. The company recently announced $27.6 million in total funding and has quickly emerged as the go-to platform for automating incident response, enforcing compliance, and managing infrastructure workflows at scale.
