Jaymit Gajjar
I’m Jaymit Gajjar, a Calgary-based infrastructure and cybersecurity leader who has spent 14+ years hardening mission-critical operations — from international airports to enterprise cloud estates. Today I help organisations fuse AI innovation with zero-trust architecture, building private ChatGPT-style assistants that stay compliant and defensible.
From rebuilding aviation networks in India to steering Canadian enterprises through AI adoption, I translate complex infrastructure into secure, human-centred experiences. My leadership style blends architecture, programme governance, and change enablement so every stakeholder understands how to protect, scale, and innovate.
A 360° journey from ground-level operations to board-level advisory — always linking technology, people, and resilience.
Designing and operating secure multi-cloud estates while deploying private ChatGPT-style platforms for regulated industries.
Modernised provincial and national organisations with hybrid cloud, DevSecOps, and security automation.
Ran large-scale IT operations for enterprises and aviation, orchestrating security, network, and DR upgrades.
Began as a customer support engineer, mastering endpoints, networking, and stakeholder empathy.
Continuous learning keeps me ahead of evolving AI ethics, compliance, and threat landscapes.
AI accelerates troubleshooting and customer experience — but only when paired with strong governance. I bring security-first frameworks that empower innovation without ever surrendering sensitive knowledge.
