Founder & CEO @Atomic
Lee Faus is Founder and CEO of Atomic, building what comes after Git: a semantic change graph that captures why software changes and turns every change into durable knowledge. His career spans Borland, Compuware, Red Hat, GitHub, and GitLab, plus advisory work with engineering leaders at Fortune 100 and Global 2000 companies. After years watching enterprises struggle to govern agent-driven development on infrastructure built for human-rate commits, Lee founded Atomic to create an AI-native foundation for software change. He speaks internationally on AI-native engineering, software supply chain integrity, and how organizations can govern, audit, and scale software factories with confidence.
