Built by Engineers Who've Been There
We started Secunit Mercantile because small businesses deserve access to the same caliber of expertise that enterprises take for granted.
Matthew Evans
I've spent over two decades designing, securing, and operating production systems for organizations where failure wasn't an option. My work has spanned hands-on engineering and executive leadership roles at companies including The Hartford, Cyware, Prometheus Alternative Investments, and earlier in my career IBM, Wells Fargo, AIG, and Honda Aircraft.
My background sits at the intersection of security, reliability, and cloud engineering. I've led large-scale cloud migrations, built SOC2-aligned security and disaster recovery programs, and helped teams adopt DevOps and SRE practices that reduced outages, noise, and cost. I'm a CISSP and have served in acting CISO and director-level roles, working directly with executives while remaining deeply technical.
Why I started Secunit Mercantile
Most small businesses don't need more tools or junior consultants — they need experienced guidance. I started Secunit Mercantile to give small and mid-sized companies access to senior-level security, DevOps, and reliability expertise without the overhead and pricing of large consulting firms. By operating as a fully remote, expatriate team, we deliver enterprise-grade outcomes at a cost that actually makes sense for growing businesses.
