Ravi Sastry Kadali

Go Ecosystem Contributor & Security Engineer, Open Source Contributor

Ravi Sastry Kadali is a security and systems engineer with over 20 years of experience building production infrastructure across defense, enterprise, and hyperscale consumer platforms — with Go as his tool of choice. He is a contributor to the Go project itself (golang/go), with accepted patches touching the toolchain and standard library. His open-source contributions span the broader Go ecosystem — including Kubernetes, etcd, gosec, semgrep, and Aqua Security's Trivy — and he is the creator and maintainer of go-safeinput, a unified injection defense library addressing the MITRE CWE Top 25, SecurePrompt, a pre-flight AI prompt security scanner, and cryptoguard-go. His work sits at the intersection of Go static analysis, performance, and security — the same intersection that drew him to exploring LLM-assisted analyzer authoring for go fix. Ravi has built high-throughput, security-critical Go systems across some of the world's largest platforms. At Meta, he built platform integrity systems protecting 3B+ users. At Microsoft, he delivered Windows releases impacting 400M+ users. At Neustar Security Services, he developed GraphQL-based Go microservices powering DDoS mitigation for thousands of enterprise brands backed by 15+ Tbps scrubbing capacity. At X Corp, he strengthened platform security and trust infrastructure. At India's Defense R&D Organization (DRDO), he developed intrusion detection systems for national defense. Across every role, the common thread has been Go and systems-level performance in security-critical infrastructure.
