The team

Three principals, one accountable lead.

GovernEdge brings AI, cybersecurity, and data governance together in one senior team for Canadian companies. One principal runs the engagement and brings in the right specialist for each part of the work.

Harshil was Fractional COO / Investor at OTH Security from 2025 to 2026. Before that, he was Principal Product Manager for cloud infrastructure at Menlo Security.

He leads control reviews, AI vendor risk, incident response, and technical guardrails for AI systems.

Data Governance Lead

He leads data inventory, classification, data-flow mapping, retention, and data-use terms in vendor reviews.

How the team works

Enough expertise in the room, without a crowd.

A client gets one person who owns the work day to day. The security or data lead joins when their experience is needed, so the work moves without three consultants in every meeting.
