Welcoming Mark Mankarious to the Warden AI team as a new Senior Product Engineer. Engineers at Warden wear a lot of hats, working behind the scenes on the product and directly with customers on audits. It's a role that demands both technical depth and a people-first mindset, which is exactly why finding the right fit takes time. Mark stood out during the interview process immediately. His career has taken him from hands-on engineering to product ownership to running his own business, and then back again. Some companies might see that journey as a winding road, but at Warden it’s considered a superpower. The ability to think like an engineer and also like a customer is rare, but this non-traditional nature is what thrives here. Excited to have Mark onboard.
