About Kiran Kunderu
Kiran Kunderu is Chief Technology Officer at Advenir Azora Living. Location: Miami-Fort Lauderdale Area, United States.
I serve as CIO/CTO with executive responsibility for enterprise cybersecurity, digital risk governance, infrastructure strategy, and technology-enabled business transformation across a multi-entity real estate platform. Over 25 years, I've built a track record of standing up enterprise technology and security functions from the ground up - twice. First at MASA Global, where I was recruited into my first CIO role to modernize IT infrastructure and elevate the company to enterprise scale, and again at Advenir Azora, where I built the entire technology and security function from scratch, including a NIST CSF 2.0 maturity program, a self-built SIEM/XDR security platform, and an automated threat-detection pipeline that contains incidents in under two minutes with no manual intervention. What I bring to an organization: - Cybersecurity & Risk Management: NIST CSF 2.0, CIS benchmark hardening, SIEM/XDR, regulatory compliance (GDPR, GLBA, PCI DSS) - Digital Transformation: Business intelligence, workflow automation, enterprise systems integration - Team Leadership: Building and mentoring lean, high-performing IT teams; disciplined budget management - Operations: Helpdesk, AV/technology production, infrastructure, and vendor management at enterprise scale I hold a Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate (2026), earned alongside full-time executive duties, and an M.S. in Computer Science from West Virginia University - proud WVU alum, and always glad to talk shop with fellow Mountaineers.
