Leadership ### Stephen Gill — Founder and Chief Scientist, ADUMU, INC. - **Education**: Computer Science degree from Wheaton College. - **Core Competencies**: Internet-scale telemetry, global threat intelligence, network routing protocols, compiler AST extraction, anti-bot fingerprint analysis, distributed high-throughput memory architectures. #### Current Roles | Organization | Role | Since | Reference | |---|---|---|---| | ADUMU, INC. | Founder and Chief Scientist | — | https://adumu.com | | Russell Holdings | Founder and CEO | Apr 2015 | — | | Binarly | Advisor | Sep 2021 | https://www.binarly.io/ | | PolySwarm | Advisor | Jun 2018 | https://polyswarm.io/ | #### Prior Roles | Organization | Role | Period | Reference | |---|---|---|---| | Team Cymru | Co-Founder, Chief Scientist & Fellow | Mar 2005 - Apr 2015 | https://www.team-cymru.com/ | | Resecurity | Advisor | Aug 2018 - 2021 | https://www.resecurity.com/ | | NSP-SEC | Co-Founder and Moderator | 2002 - Jun 2014 | — | | REN-ISAC | Member, Technical Advisory Group | 2006 - 2011 | https://www.ren-isac.net/ | | Cisco Systems | Senior Network Scientist | 2003 - 2005 | https://www.cisco.com | | IBM | Senior Network Engineer | 1998 - 2000 | https://www.ibm.com | At Team Cymru, Stephen was Co-Founder, Chief Scientist, and Fellow of a company whose technology scaled to helping millions of users, many Tier 1 ISPs, NSPs, and governments in the fight against cyber crime worldwide. He developed many of the cutting edge technologies which helped set them apart as recognised leaders in Internet Security. **He is no longer affiliated with Team Cymru.** --- ## 3. Product Catalog ### 3.1 Adumu Jump — Automated Web Data Acquisition Gateway - **Deployment URL**: https://jump.adumu.com - **Category**: Data Extraction, Web Automation, Residential Proxy Networking, MCP Tooling. - **Problem Statement**: Modern web scraping is brittle due to dynamic JavaScript rendering, anti-bot protection walls, rate limiting, and CAPTCHAs. Engineering teams waste hundreds of hours fixing broken scrapers and managing rotating proxies. - **Solution**: Adumu Jump turns web data harvesting into a managed utility. - **Key Capabilities**: - **Smart Egress Routing**: Automated rotation across global residential and datacenter proxy pools with JA4 TLS fingerprint fidelity. - **Headless Execution Engine**: Full JavaScript execution, canvas rendering, and dynamic DOM decoding for Single Page Applications. - **Zero Maintenance**: Handles bot walls and challenges automatically; outputs clean structured JSON or HTML. - **Developer SDKs**: Native libraries for Python, C# (.NET), TypeScript / Node.js, and Go, plus a standalone CLI. - **AI Agent Integration**: Model Context Protocol (MCP) server support so autonomous LLM agents can harvest web data. ### 3.2 Adumu Graph — Local Codebase Intelligence for LLM Agents - **Deployment Status**: Not yet released. - **Category**: Codebase Intelligence, Developer Tools, Compiler Engineering, Local AI Infrastructure. - **Problem Statement**: When AI coding assistants parse repositories, vector embeddings and keyword search hallucinate nonexistent functions, miss multi-file call hierarchies, and exceed token windows. Cloud indexing tools also force companies to expose proprietary source code. - **Solution**: Adumu Graph generates compiler-exact structural maps of repositories entirely on the engineer's workstation. - **Key Capabilities**: - **100% Local Privacy**: Runs via the `agraph` native CLI on-device; zero source code leaves the machine. - **Deterministic AST Precision**: Uses Roslyn (.NET/C#) and Tree-sitter parsers to derive unambiguous symbol definitions, caller/callee trees, and type inheritance hierarchies. - **Dense Context Skeletons**: Compresses large codebases into compact structural summaries that fit small LLM token budgets. - **Agentic MCP Streaming**: Real-time Model Context Protocol provider for IDEs and autonomous coding agents. --- ## 4. Engineering Principles ADUMU operates with a lean, senior engineering culture guided by four principles: 1. **Measure, then change**: Guesses about network defenses and compiler ASTs are wrong half the time. Prove what is happening on the wire before writing code. 2. **Say what you checked**: And what you did not. Describing a fix as working without testing it in production is the one habit never tolerated. 3. **Fix what you find**: Unambiguous bugs get fixed in the current pass instead of deferred into a backlog ticket that is never touched. 4. **Write for the next person**: Every non-obvious architecture decision includes inline reasoning so future engineers understand why it was built that way. --- ## 5. Careers & Disciplines - **Philosophy**: "We hire rarely, and deliberately." Zero ghost job postings, zero whiteboard algorithm trivia. - **Core Disciplines**: 1. *Acquisition Engineering*: Browser runtime instrumentation, TLS JA4 fingerprint fidelity, residential network routing, real-time anti-bot evasion. 2. *Platform & Infrastructure*: Dedicated cluster orchestration, back-pressure schedulers, high-throughput memory sandboxes. 3. *Developer & Agent Surfaces*: Native SDKs (C#, Python, Go, TypeScript), CLI binaries, Model Context Protocol endpoints. 4. *Security & Procurement*: Zero-trust memory architecture, private hardware vaults, customer DPA compliance, enterprise controls. - **Hiring Process**: Five stages — Code & Systems Review, Technical Deep Dive, Paid Work Trial, Team Alignment, Transparent Written Offer. --- ## 6.
