“As API design becomes more central to organizations of all sizes and industries around the world, we are squarely focused on ensuring we have security at the center of our strategy for growth. We are thrilled to have Nick joining as our first CISO with his deep background and expertise to bring to the job,” shares Stoplight CTO, Jason Harmon.

Based in Seattle, Washington, Muy comes to Stoplight with over fifteen years of experience in technology and security. He was previously at Expedia Group, leading business and commercial strategy for Expedia Group’s platform division, previously spending five years transforming security in the organization. During that period, Muy grew Expedia’s investment in security by many millions and expanded the team to more than 150 people–taking security strategy from purely operational to an increasingly technical security team.
