Axiado Doubles Down on Indian Market with New Engineering Hub to Strengthen Cybersecurity Solutions | Gopi Sirineni | Founder & CEO | Axiado

Axiado, a platform security company with roots in California, is deepening its presence in India through the expansion of its Hyderabad office. As part of its strategic growth plan, the company is actively hiring, leveraging India’s skilled talent pool to drive innovation and accelerate product development.

Established in 2021, Axiado’s Hyderabad office now serves as its Indian headquarters and has evolved into a key R&D hub. The facility has grown to over 11,000 square feet, featuring a fully equipped lab, reference design systems, and engineering development programs. With a current team of 35 employees, Axiado aims to double its headcount by year-end, supporting its mission to build AI-driven
hardware security solutions that protect cloud data centers, 5G networks, and critical infrastructure.

This expansion highlights Axiado’s commitment to India’s evolving tech landscape, particularly in AI and semiconductor innovation. By anchoring itself in Hyderabad, one of India’s leading technology hubs, Axiado is tapping into a vibrant ecosystem of engineering talent, state-of-the-art infrastructure, and
collaborative opportunities.

With cybersecurity threats rising globally and India’s digital transformation accelerating, the country’s cybersecurity market is projected to grow at over 30% annually. Axiado’s strengthened presence positions it to not only meet the surging demand for advanced security solutions but also contribute meaningfully to India’s technological progress.

“This expansion represents a pivotal moment in our global strategy,” said Gopi Sirineni, Co-Founder and CEO of Axiado Corporation. “India has been instrumental in advancing our AI-driven security solutions, and with this expansion, we are doubling down on our commitment to promoting innovation in
hardware-anchored cybersecurity. We are excited to welcome a new wave of engineers who will play a key role in shaping the next generation of secure computing.”

Axiado plans to invest significantly in its Indian operations, with aggressive hiring initiatives across AI, silicon engineering, and cybersecurity domains. The company aims to bring aboard more than 60 engineers specializing in software, firmware, and chip design roles by year-end. This investment aligns with Axiado’s vision to create state-of-the-art security solutions that protect critical infrastructure from increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

The company’s growth trajectory in India has been impressive, with a remarkable 133% growth rate since establishing its presence in the region. Currently, approximately 40% of the company’s growth comes from India, the strategic importance of this market to Axiado’s global operations. As the company expands into new domains like network applications and 5G base networks, Indian engineers will play an increasingly vital role in driving innovation.

Founded in 2019 by Gopi Sirineni, Axiado specializes in AI-driven, hardware-anchored security solutions designed for disaggregated computing environments. The company recently secured Series C funding, backed by prominent investors such as Maverick Capital, Crosslink Capital, and Samsung, fueling its expansion into new markets and technologies.

Diversity and inclusion form foundational pillars of Axiado’s growth strategy. In its Indian operations, the company is actively building a team that reflects a wide spectrum of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives through inclusive hiring practices and employee development programs.

As digital transformation accelerates globally, Axiado’s expanded presence in India positions the country as a critical node in its global innovation network where silicon, software, and AI converge to create trusted platforms for the digital era. This strategic investment not only strengthens Axiado’s capabilities but also contributes significantly to India’s emergence as a leader in cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions for the global market.
